Love the XJ what a car - small but perfectly formed.

[@debhumphrey7480]

Have a95.perfect. went to the dealer yesterday. Hoo hoo a horn! Have a good night. Never 4 wheeled. Night

[@ericsxj1975]

Thanks for showing us your Orvis. That interior is amazing.

[@autojoeluk5645]

Thanks for watching! Yes it’s certainly a nice place to be

[@etc-and-more]

I just bought a 1998 myself about a week ago, probably overpaid but it has very low miles and is in great conditon and I plan on it to be one of my forever cars so didn't really matter. Never even heard of the Orvis edition, it must be extremely rare -looks great.

[@Adikxx]

Good video, that's exactly what i have-2000 Orvis 4.0, did lots of work on it and i'm proud to say i pretty much restored this lovely car to it's former glory

[@quechingesuputamadretrump3720]

Jeep cherokee sport the best vehicle ❤

[@STEELNAVIGATOR1]

Great Video. Love the Orvis Edition. Rare.

[@autojoeluk5645]

Very! Thanks for watching

[@judezain23]

Not sure if you guys cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all of the new movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend for the last weeks =)

[@brendanalijah3747]

@Jude Zain yea, I've been watching on instaflixxer for since december myself :D

[@benjaminjustice2438]

@Jude Zain yup, have been watching on instaflixxer for years myself :)

[@rickbrown7287]

HEY.... your steering wheel is on the wrong side, has it been in a terrible accident? 😂 Got a '99 Classic myself. Bought it in 2001 with 11,xxx miles on the clock. 375,xxx miles on ot now. STILL runs like the day I bought it. BEST vehicle I have ever owned. 😎👍

[@autojoeluk5645]

Haha. Very nice. They’re great trucks and lay for ages! Glad you enjoy it. Never sell it, they’re going up in price now

[@robertashley2714]

Great vehicle to start a new channel with. Here in the states, these were common family cars in their day. Then they became the reliable old beater that people gave to their teenagers as a first car. Now, good ones are hard to find. I picked mine up a couple of years ago. It was clean, but I had to pay $10k US for it. Don't regret it at all. It has become a fun overlander for my family.

[@autojoeluk5645]

Worth it for sure. They’re only going up in value. Thanks for watching!

[@99jeepxjguy97]

Thank you so much. I have been an XJ fan since the 90s. I did not know there was an Orvis package on the XJ, even if it was just a UK thing. Do you know if the Orvis was available on the 2 door models there? Your comments on the steering makes me think it might have quite a bit of mileage on it, and just worn.. .. A fresh steering definitely does not feel "dead". Probably time for a refresh with some ZJ V8 components. The door click is from the detent, not the hinge. Again thank you, great video. Subscriber number 70!

[@officialWWM]

Factory black is a rare colour! Nice car!

[@steveh5005]

Just bought "99 3 door 2.5 LHD with 170k km €3995. Getting very rare. Had a RHD Orvis 4ltr in UK. With 2inch lift great wagon

[@v8valiant68]

I actually just a bought a xj yesterday, a 97 mod, the orvis looks mean as,

[@Moltenbramley]

Great video. I’ve got a very clean XJ with the VM engine. It’s fine except it is very difficult to find parts for, for this reason I wish I had bought a 4L.

[@kts68]

Great video. Can't wait to see more.

[@ReodorF1]

I wish americans did the same with the jeep xj as the germans did with the mercedes gelandewagen keep the old chassis and make it modern in and outside

[@autojoeluk5645]

Agreed. Only choices now are the new Jimmy, G-Wagon, Wrangler and maybe Project Grenadier when it finally comes :)

[@ronny302]

It would cost 100.000 £ now, if they did it like the Germans. G-model is just a shopping car anymore.

[@sloganeeringgaming6363]

Xj stands for eXperimental jeep and was a AMC design

[@RecordableID]

Great first video! Love the XJ, like everyone else it seems. subbed ;)

[@autojoeluk5645]

Thanks a lot. Much appreciated!

[@carsandtopgear]

Nice video! Had no idea European models came with second row headrests. US never had any!

[@autojoeluk5645]

It’s amazing that the US ones didn’t have them to be honest. Chrysler clearly thought you guys didn’t need necks 😂

[@4x4adventure_pl]

Good review. Just just starting with XJ and offroading. So far everything is just perfect :)

[@Crown.A]

So interesting these are so loved here in the US and this version was not available here. What an incredible interior and all the other differences wow. I wish I could buy these seats!!

[@MajorWeakness]

Thanks for the video, very cool! I've got a couple of XJs

[@harleyjames6065]

Please do more offroaders

[@autojoeluk5645]

Will do. I have a 1995 Nissan Patrol TD42 with 23k miles which I plan to do a video on this summer

[@video4u96]

Great stuff, keep it up!

[@roialblu]

Great video, i subscribed. at 03:01 to the left of your left arm, you seem to have some storage container. Was that an orvis feature? looks very oem. Any reference to this would be most helpful. Thanks again

[@roialblu]

@@civilisedpsycho9970 brilliant!

[@dutchwebswebsites6057]

Nice video thanks!

[@marcoantoniocasoascanio6905]

It's the best suv ever made.

[@matthewtoplack7782]

Hey Joel! What is at the bottom of the center console? Underneath the switches and power outlets there seems to be something extra that we never got in the US! Thanks!

[@kts68]

That would be the headlamp dipping control.

[@mishari554]

amazing video

[@autojoeluk5645]

Thanks a lot!!! More to come in the future

[@jimmyconnor9541]

god i want one so bad just as like a extra car to have like a “project car” maybe? idk lol but super cool

[@civilisedpsycho9970]

Get a life Jimmy, you sad prick

[@fossilfish786]

There was a 2.5 petrol manual 'sport' FYI

[@monkeybarmonkeyman]

I'm 68 from the states... thought I should refresh to go for 69 lmbo.

[@michaeljohn7405]

They have you guys the Orvis option in the cherokee they didn’t do that here they did that for the grand cherokees

[@callumprytherch1620]

Eyup Joel lad when's the next video

[@autojoeluk5645]

Should be coming soon! Just finishing up with my degree at the moment which is taking up all my time. I’d rather wait and do it properly instead of rushing it and throwing it out. Thanks for waiting :)

[@nielosoweznaki]

Good video, why you've stopped?

[@roderickjones7479]

Can you do an XC90 video? Subscribing!

[@mohameddabous3781]

I love 💕 xj

[@michaeljohn7405]

That model in that condition could be worth 40,000 in California NY and Michigan

[@michaeljohn7405]

Just watch out for 2000 2001 models with that head casting. Other than that they run forever

[@dougulrich7692]

Huh rear head rest and intake box us xj didn't have that

[@charlienicholson914]

What size tires are on this? Any lift at all? Thank you

[@illhurtya1063]

Why is the passenger driving?

[@Boonses]

Steering wheel is on the wrong side I’ll give you 200 dollars

[@autojoeluk5645]

Hahaha

[@louieandstuff1014]

Any chance for sale ? Live in County Durham

[@kts68]

Could be - its one of the best in the UK 65K on the clock and rust-free.

[@ahmedyuosef3473]

a car

[@stevek3036]

Another review from an under age driver of the 90s' Just when did you pass your test? Are you qualified to make objective comments about a car that arrived in the UK in mid 1990s? Just how did it compare back then ?

[@JMTerry1984]

What an idiotic comment

[@ahmedyuosef3473]

Nice a car buy a now new

[@olliejabooty6777]

This is the illegitimate love child of an xj and a 5.9 zj
