I drive one of these on a daily basis in Mozambique. The engine is 2.8 Diesel, not 2.7. I also have that annoying red light on the lower left corner of the dash. Apparently, it’s related to the anti-theft system (still unsolved, I’m just living with it). I could do better in terms of car, but for my current “life situation”, it’s serving me well.

A friend had one of those from new and I was amazed at how crude, bouncy and cheaply finished it was at the time. Personally, I’d never buy an American car, they’re all built to a (low) budget. But look at it this way, you can sell the tow bar for £200, you found 27p in the cup holder and it’s got to be worth £299.73 as scrap so you’re unlikely to lose anything. FYI, sick horses go to the glue factory 🤣

I would NEVER buy a French or Italian car. Pieces of shit. They were rubbish and we sent them packing and hope they never come back. Our junk cars serve us very well with many going over 300,000 miles with minimal servicing required. My 1990 Chevrolet Lumina served me very well from 1991 until I retired in 2012. Started after sitting outside on nights that should you be caught outside overnight would be fatal. Just Brutal temps. Just remember the American cars you get are not the same as ours. Different drivetrains there. As far as safety standards go, we have Two agencies to make sure our cars are safe IIHS Insurance institute for highway safety and NHTSA National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Bumper, side impact, rollover, offset frontal impact standards. Front Side and side curtain airbags as well as AEB, lane departure warning cross traffic alert standard backup cameras and more Offset frontal impact is a car crashed into a fixed barrier at 35 mph with only one third of the front of the car to simulate you crossing the center line and crashing into an oncoming car. Much more relevant than a full frontal because it is a much more common type of crash Just a brutal test they must pass. So, you keep yours and we will keep ours. Sort of feel sorry for you.

Matt - Love it! I was working for a Jeep/Chrysler dealer in London back when this car was new and I never new about the stalk switching on the interior light! Never once sold a Sport, always Limited and usualy the 3.7 petrol or the 2.8 auto. Sport petrol was fookin aweful. I liked them but I didn't have to own one, just jumped in and out of demo cars including a 4.0 Grand Cherokee we called 'The QE2' on account of how many gallons per mile it needed.

Honestly, this looks better than the Honda CRV 2nd gen which I paid 5 grand for it. A paid car check and MOT history showed the car was fine until I took it for inspection because it was missing a service book and it was super grubby, unlike the photo shown. Upon inspection, the exhaust manifold has rotted, the condenser was smashed (hidden unrecorded Cat S) and the rear corroded and crumbled like a cookie. Thank god I was able to get a return and refund for it just today...

My wife owns the 2007 3.7l 6 cylinder and loves it. We bought if from a friend 5 years ago for virtually nothing. We had an aftermarket lift kit installed and had Wrangler wheels fitted. It does look quite mean and rugged in the car parks here in Dubai. I've tried to convince her to sell it for years, but she always says why? it's never let me down....and she's right, this thing is bulletproof, starts every time. Don't get me wrong, it rattles, shakes and squeaks over every single bump, but just keeps on going. I think she'll have it forever. Loving the reviews Matt. Great stuff as always.

Had one of these last year. It was the car to start my offroad passion. There is a funny story with it though. A guy and I went with it on the hills around just to have some fun, typical to guys, I admit. And, unavoidably we had to drive it back home at some point at midnight. Surprise surprise, a police car stopped us on some country forrest road, with high beams and a lantern and pointed at the driver (me) to open the window. And I scrambled about finding the switch for the windows and all I could do was to lock the door 😂 eventually they left us alone, seeing we were so damn boggered 😂

I used to work for Mercedes Benz 1992-2017, the Daimler Chrysler era was horrendous!, those jeeps are buckets!, the older Grand Cherokees with the 2.7cdi Engines were descent, the Daimler Chrysler partnership didn’t last very long.

We had a 2003 CRD LTD 2.5, leather etc, bought in 2005. The electric blue sort of colour. It had a built in satnav fitted as part of the deal. It was a very nice car. We took it from the UK to the Pyrenees for skiing. We took it to France when we moved there and did a deal with a guy who was moving back, swapping cars (his was lhd and French registered) and some money our way. He did intend to sell it on his return to the UK, but kept it as his wife loved it. From memory, they were 4 x 4 of the year in 2003.

What you never say; 'If I grossly overspend I will make a record loss'. What you (almost) always say; 'How bad can it be?'', then 'Well we're here...' followed by a look that says that life is one regret after another! Not even Car Vertical can rescue you from a succession of ill-considered purchases. Keep up the good work Mat. As they say, 'It's comedy gold'!

If you’re going to have real fun at an off-road site you need to change the tyres. Proper off road tyres are essential. What strikes me is that you really don’t look like a man who likes getting dirty. If you go to an off-road site you will get muddy, very muddy. Or dusty, which is just as bad. But good luck, it will be an experience.

A day or two at a pay & play and then scrap it. They weren't awful offroad. Just pick a dry day given the state of the tyres

I owned one of these for 18 months. Black 07 plate in Limited spec. The most unreliable and fastest depreciating car I've ever owned. A safety recall fix left in unable to tow anything (Something to do with the location of the fuel tank IIRC?) . The diesel engine would routinely lose power at junctions and roundabouts and I was constantly having to bleed air out of the system. Lots of other minor niggles such as electric windows failing. The clutch is really heavy on the manual and the gear change clunky. Wish I bought an original Cherokee with the 4.0 straight-6.

A 4x4 will always be useful to someone as a farm vehicle or for off roading or for pulling boats up a beach. You might even get your money back! Ebay it!

In answer to your question… American roads and compasses are fantastic. You know straightaway if you’re heading the right way (or the wrong way) and when roads are named “W Harmon” for example you know it’s west of “E Harmon” (the same road but designated from what point you’re on it. Or S Jones…. Yep you guessed it, that’s south of N Jones. Easy. Bit like American door numbers being 5 digit etc and your neighbour being the same but the last digits plus or minus another 10. All about the distance from a certain point

Like the one that was done 7 months prior with just a couple of advisories. I like looking along to see the histories, apparently all those major issues happened in 7 months. Must've stored it in wet salt.
