Big Rich:
Hi A good friend of mine has looked at a K 1993 reg Jeep Cherokee.  4ltr. Its not bad money to buy.

What do you need to look out for on them?
What are running costs like?
Rough MPG?

What are your views on them?

Many thanks

Rich

I've a grand, which is the same engine / running gear pretty much.

it's lifted and running 32" tyres. I get 13 to the gallon on a run (can touch 15 if I'm really sensible), and 9 towing (tow limits kinda towing).

I wouldn't touch one if it wasn't on LPG.

Jeep - just empty every pocket.

If you get parts from the stealers they are silly prices (£5 each for a wheel nut).  Shop around and parts become more sensible, compariatable with other trucks.

Cherokees, rust, rust, and even more rust.

As for a good price, i take it it's a long way this side of £500

Bishops Finger:
Whats the wonga involved...a 93 XJ is past the cusp of reliabilty

Get him to check the roof seams fo rust.....

The Smiths:
pick up the back seats, pull carpet back and check for rust around seat belt mounting area - give it a tap
