Welcome to AZ :peaceout:

Does look tidy and is reasonably priced, there is known issues with the jimny autos so if it's slipping or making any funky noises stay away.
If the auto seems good and ya buy it put in a transmission cooler a must if ya going bigger tyres :rambo:

“Very slight bump” ?

I’d be getting to the bottom of that before I pulled the trigger. If it’s a significant auto problem the car will most likely not be feasible to repair. G series Jimny autos are very hard to find in good condition and very expensive if you do find one.

Otherwise looks quite clean.

An auto trans temp gauge is mandatory. A large trans cooler is very strongly advised. They run hot.

Thank you so much for all your help, will just have to keep an eye out for some more. But at least I know a little bit more about them now!

Don’t be scared of the auto, if you find one that drives properly and has clean fluid, it should be fine. It’s just super important to know how hot you’re getting it (by fitting a gauge) and adjust use as appropriate. Be wary of large throttle openings and low speed in high range.
