It's an old shape RR with new spec lights. As far as I can tell the ony purpose it serves is to draw attention to the fact you cant afford a newer one

I wouldn't buy an RR as mentioned my Dad had one for 3years from almost new and it had lots of problems all of which cost the earth to fix. Passenger rear door basicly fell off the other side leaked the air suspension had a mind of its own and the engine blew up at 56k/3years old.

Wouldn't buy one because it was so expensive. I looked on wiki and there were about 8billion Cherokees made since 95 or wherever so there's not going to be a shortage of parts. It's cheap equipped and looks comfy plus big enough to swallow a chest of drawers etc

I don't really like any of the others posted tbh

Id describe a jeep as more agricultural that a freelander, a defender is more agricultural that a jeep but not a freelander.

My Freelanders have been fairly reliable. Boost hoses and an intermittent fuel pump was the worst I've had to deal with.

I had a Suzuki Grand Vitara a couple of years ago. RWD with selectable High/Low 4 wheel drive. Was a good little car. Prolly a bit small for what you wants though.

Oh, and you mention comfy? No leg room in the back, you sit on the floor and everyone gets car sick as the thing wallows about like a tanker in a storm. Horrible horrible things.

I want something wallowy and relaxed. The range rover wallowed everywhere but you simply don't drive them like a car and only then do you appreciate them.

Got any pics Ed??

Exactly the same problems as my mums/mates

The boost pipe got taped and the fuel pump got tapped with a hammer.

The older type, from 94-99 IIRC. Not sure on internal model name. Same as the Autotrader link posted. Or the normal Cherokee tbh
