Finally! MATT IS BACK!

[@FairladyS130]

Same colour as mine but in AU we get the two lire diesel, not the 2.2. Still I like mine, two fingers to those who don't like the looks.

[@bocckoka]

Awww, Matt. Finally, everything is back in its place.

"You can tell Jeep is owned by Fiat, because there's just some random italianness" - Mat Watson, 2016

[@mano23937]

Good its matt

[@thecat4272]

Good to see Matt Watson back. Easily the most informative yet entertaining reviewer by a mile.

[@adamgillett1]

2:52 - awesome alan partridge impression.

[@Brayant25]

Matt is the best car reviewer ever.... very informative and points out every flaw a car has... like how on earth do you go from automatic to snow to sport and then to mud.... so laughable.. what was the engineers thinking?

[@nigel.w]

Great to see Matt back! The other two are okay, but okay doesn't quite do it. There are so many okay/good reviewers today that only those with a certain something will ultimately survive. When Rebecca was at Car buyer, Matt and her made a great team. Since she has left, Carbuyer is nothing without Matt. Every time you watch one of the other two, you know you are watching nice, competent people, but when you watch Matt, you know you are watching one of the 'star' reviewers with a style that delivers a very welcome perspective. He's not a star driver or a collector -- those bases are well catered for elsewhere -- he's real, and tells it as a more than competent, car enthusiast, who gets to spend time with a lot of cars. His observations and comparisons are helpful to those of us that don't have the experience with so many cars that he has, nor the opportunity or time to drive everything that may be of interest. And on top of that he has a personal way with him that one is born with, which cannot be learned. Matt for all his apparent ordinariness, in addition to his broad knowledge, has that certain something that makes him one of the standout ('star') car reviewers. Thanks, Matt, for what you do and the way you do it.

Basically everyone except the new male presenter, then.

[@josephvucinic]

[@ErikSWE]

Tried to test drive one of these three times. First time the transmission was broken, second time it had leaked oil all over the show floor and the third time it had a ticking sound from the engine which had the sales guy too worried to send it off. Three different cars, three different problems.

[@m4rs12]

+Erik Nyberg and those were just test drive!! btw why did you have 3 test drive? Once/twice should be enough to tell that this car is a lemon!

[@ErikSWE]

m4rs12 Basically I like the design, it comes well equipped, the interior feels well made and the offroad capabilities was supposed to be great (as well as class leading towing capacity). Gave up the thought on the first incident but still wanted to try it out. Fiat quality through and through.

[@EinkOLED]

Welcome back mat

[@g00dfeeling]

Beautiful car, Fiat is really good in making special vehicles.

[@g00dfeeling]

+xanderxenius No sarcasm at all. Fiat 500 (all versions), Alfa Giulietta and MiTo, Jeep Renegade, Rubicon, Cherokee, Lancia Y, Maserati Ghibli and Quattroporte are in my opinion the most distinctive in their classes and all magnificent. Most of other manufacturers are making cars to just satisfy average taste.

[@ericimi]

the Cherokee looks great now ! and the 9 speed transmission is very impressive .

[@erichupscher7214]

The 2,0L diesel engine is a joy to drive! It’s got tremendous torque, which makes the -manual- gearbox totally shift-lazy! Ik powers up hills in 5th, sometimes even 6th gear whereas most other engines dictate you to shift way lower. The manual shifting goes smooth like a dream too. I’ve never driven the 9-gear automatic.. On the one hand I’d love it, but I fear it’s reliability... I really want ACC on it! However, is is hard to get on used manual versions. So I’m still puzzling I’m afraid...

[@Makay55]

Just how easy is this to watch.....awesome review.

[@cate4338]

I'm sure by now he's found the volume control on the back of the steering wheel - sometimes it pays to check out the manual ... it would be great to have a follow-up review of the recalls from 2015 onwards...

[@karl5874]

Does the jeep finally handle the moose test?

[@jwatwater]

+Karl A We don't do that in America.

[@justacrlon3963]

I bet a lot of engineers were fired

[@yanni2737]

Well the 2018 Compass scored higher than all the german SUVs so yeah it probably can.

[@braithyboi4335]

Matts last video for Carsguide carol for the win

[@NIAtoolkit]

Equipped as shown, the Jeep Cherokee Limited would be $40k in North America. The Grand Cherokee with similar equipment is only $5k more, and that's why most people who are dead set on getting a _"fully loaded"_ Jeep Cherokee Limited end up paying a little more and leaving the dealership driving the much better Grand Cherokee.

[@shirakawanaoya]

The freckles are back.

[@nickcobra4638]

Matt please tell me you are staying for good

[@dylanpower1438]

It looks amazing.

[@andrewdale]

Must be great as a second hand buy perhaps after 3 years

[@adassa1132]

Will you please do a driving review in the new compass? It's so disappointing that there doesn't seem to be any UK proper experienced reviews of this car 😔

[@Keio_University]

Thank you it's Matt.

[@LeguimOla]

Make a review of the current Grand Cherokee, please.

[@irGuilty]

Might buy the black one for my dad

Great review Mat!

[@mark.c3353]

I love this car It looks great

[@ehtshamshahid9600]

Can u make the review of the Grand Cherokee please

[@stonemarten1400]

For heaven's sake, if you want to buy a Jeep, buy a Jeep Wrangler - it's the original and the best Jeep product - but you'll have to accept the on-road manners of a real off-roader!

[@FelipeCerdaBarra]

Nice review! Didn't like the car that much but I loved the folding front seat.

[@karl5874]

It seems like you have improved your video gear. looks good.

[@Fedotdotdot]

You're back !!!!

[@hawkesworth1712]

One sure way to see how reliable a car is would be to drive it on the roads here in Australia - not only because of the heat but the poor road surfaces. That's why Jeep and Land Rover cars are considered to be a bit of a joke here. Jeep had a very effective advertising campaign that made a lot of people buy them, mainly because they are a nice looking car, but they have so many faults people are regretting the purchase.

[@yaritaro3409]

i wonder why some countries have the steering wheel on the right. instead of the left

[@chanshuwun]

I would get a Land Rover Sport instead. I drove one as a rental for a week, it was a base model with the 2.4 petrol engine on it. It drive like a Japanese car. It's pretty cheap in American though. If it is X3 money in the U.K. I would get a X3 instead. The UConnect system is great. I love it on my Grand Cherokee. It makes sense to buy a Grand Cherokee in the U.S. because you get European quality with a lesser price. It cost $51000 USD fully loaded in the U.S. Compare to a Land Rover Discovery cost $80,000 fully loaded.

[@NubletPie278]

It starts £5000 cheaper than the X3

[@chanshuwun]

+MRFUCKOFF202 you don't wanted the base model, I would buy something from the Japanese instead.

[@NubletPie278]

Johnny Chan What's so wrong with the base model that it makes the Japanese better?

[@chanshuwun]

+MRFUCKOFF202 you pretty much get the same thing as a Dacia. The 2.4 Petrol is under power. If I buy one, I would buy the Limited with the 3.2V6. I don't need to buy one, because I already got a Grand Cherokee Summit with all the bells and whistle.

[@NubletPie278]

Johnny Chan The Japanese slightly-raised-hatchbacks look even more like Dacias to me. I'm not sure which Japanese car you are referring to, but as an example the Nissan Qashqai you can have with a 1.2 petrol or 1.6 diesel with 113bhp and 128bhp respectively, so you're looking at a 10-12 second 0-60 time there. The Jeep offers a 2.0 diesel with 140bhp/10.3s 0-60 and a 2.2 diesel with 200bhp/8.7s 0-60 and then there's the V6. As far as I'm concerned these are far better engines and the Jeep doesn't look insanely anonymous and dreary as the Qashqai, especially inside. They don't offer the 2.4 in the UK anymore, they're all Fiat group engines now.

[@dhatfield9767]

They are cheap here in the states. Bought mine fully loaded new for $32,000 out the door

If it's close to BMW X3 money in the UK, that's pretty ridiculous. Here in the states, it's not even close to that.

[@ehtshamshahid9600]

Awesome as always ;)

[@ehtshamshahid9600]

the one from the mustang?

[@6ec6YRFPTcC]

Jesus christ how much are they charging for that thing in England for it to be compared to the X3 and Land Rover. here in the U.S. you can pick one up brand new for less than 20k if you do your shopping. The BMW, Land Rover, and Audi are easily double that price

[@cameronvlogs8548]

On the bright side, although the initial price is BMW X3 territory, the depreciation means that buying one second hand can cost you less than £10,000, which I think is absolutely worth it!

[@bigdmonkey1930]

Yup picked mine up today. Its great.

[@xPandaProz]

I am annoyed by that leaf 🍂 😂 Throw it out!!

[@JackInDaBoxx]

Don't get why he says its not as good off road as a discovery sport as he didn't exactly to a big off roast test, and Jeeps 4 wheel drive systems are really good.

[@soranopratanavaraha614]

Jeep: lets design a hideous looking car and fitted it with the most modernize interior we have and make it drive like an old cherokee without the off-road capabilities and set up a high price tag so people would think I'm driving a real jeep
