New Jeep Patriot

(1/5) > >>

CaptainColourful:
I have just got home from a Jeep Trial at Parkwood Offroad Centre,Tong.
 A brilliant couple of hours with no hard sell, just a play day.
The new GC went very very well on the offroad course... some very good holes,ruts,wading,climbs & descents never phased it at all.

The new softroader, the Jeep Patriot, was there too, more for the " I live down a dusty lane" type than an offroader. It's  either a 2 litre oilburner or 2.4 petrol depending what you prefer.. I prefer to not bother at all.

My God it's an ugly thing !

You thought the Compass was ugly ? Wait till you see this !
To me they both look like they belong on a roundabout at a fair !
What do you think ? Look at the look on the lad's face in the 2nd pic... says it all eh ?

Steven:
Er, its fat!  :shock:

...well thats all I have to say anyway...

I reckon the Jeep Commander is worse.  I think they made it out of Meccano.

Yes, thats even worser  :shock:

CaptainColourful:
But at least the Commander is a GC with a different shell on.... but slightly longer and wider to get the 3rd row of seats in ... i.e. it will offroad !! A bit too square for me though.

I did ask about those horrible wheel arch extensions with the bolts r us fixings... . no reply !

For anyone with loads of dosh, if you don't like the Cherokee's present shape ( too rounded off ? ) there's a new square shaped un coming out soon ........ maybe the present one will be a bargain later this yr before the new un is launched ( remember Freelander ? )
