The Jeep Wrangler is loved by many in Australia for its unquestionable 4x4 off-road capability and its enduring street cred, but it doesn’t come cheap. So here’s a deal for you…
As an upgrade for Wrangler looms, which will see its Pentastar V6 replaced by a four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, the Australian arm of the US off-road brand has lopped well over $10,000 from the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Night Eagle (2023) to help clear its showroom floors.
Normally carrying a manufacturer’s recommended retail price of $81,450 plus on-road costs, the V6-powered Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Night Eagle is currently available from $74,950 drive-away.
The savings go well beyond the $6500 difference, with on-road costs such as dealer delivery, stamp duty, registration and compulsory third-party insurance typically adding up to more than $8000 combined (exact prices depend on the state or territory in which you reside).
For something that’s also off-road-capable but nestled in the heart of the hugely popular 4x4 dual-cab ute segment, the 2024 Mazda BT-50 SP 4x4 auto is on sale for ABN holders at just $64,670 drive-away.
That’s instead of the usual price of $68,660 plus on-road costs, so, as with the Wrangler, you’re not only getting thousands shaved from the RRP, but in real terms you’re saving around $10K once those ORCs are factored in.
Tax time is also approaching, so it’s an attractive proposition for ABN holders.
For something entirely different – in the shape of a stylish European small car – the auto-equipped 2023 Citroen C3 Shine is available from $29,990 drive-away, down from its usual price of $32,267 plus on-road costs.
This French hatch is one of a few models from Citroen over the years to be fitted with the innovative ‘Airbump’ body protection down each flank, adding to the unique design of the vehicle while protecting its panels from door dinks.
It’s cool and quirky and, at less than $30K, has genuine affordability on its side, too.
