Testing the water here to see if any non-Londoner would be interested in my Jeep Cherokee. It's a diesel, bought when that was what we supposed to buy, but soon to fall foul of the extended ULEZ - hence the sale. I was going to give it to my niece, but she's not ready for it yet.
It's a 2.8 CRD manual, 06 plate, in black with grey leather interior, with a little over 62K on the clock.
The good stuff:
-Genuine low mileage
-Regularly serviced
-Never been any issues with its MOT
-Newish tyres
-New battery
-New oil sump
-Replaced the window mechanisms on both rear doors
-Just serviced the power steering and replaced a leaking pipe
-Jeep tow bar recall has been done
-Will throw in Thule roof bars and a Halfords roof box
The less good stuff:
-The sun roof drains on these have a tendency to leak into the car, unless you clear the gunk out of them, which is easily done by removing a small panel and using a track pump - which I do each year
-A couple of bits of wobbly exterior trim, that I'll fix
-No parcel shelf
Not a sexy car, but a proverbial "workhorse", genuine 5-seater with a decent boot, reliable, etc. I'd keep it and run it into the ground, were it not for the ULEZ. Next service and MOT due in about 6 months or so, but I'll confirm.
We Buy Any Car value it at £1,715, and there are higher mileage/older cars on ebay and Autotrader at that sort of price and more.
I'd be happy to sell it someone on here for £1,200, with a £50 forum donation. Happy to take photos, or arrange a viewing, if there's any interest.
