Looking in to buying one of these,but i've never had a jeep before.

anyone had one?

where's the problem area with them?

what should i look for when viewing?

how much should i be paying for an 'm' plate soft top with t&t in pretty good condition?

cheers

Your mate Ross has got one, surely he'd be the best person to ask?

I had one (not a fatboy though) for off road shoting and green lanes. I found it to be very juicy (1.6) but a hell of alot of fun was had when going into green lanes and its off road capabilitys suprised me alot :agree:

There's a few people that own them around here... Note: I do not know them... They all live on caravan sites...

enough to p*** you off ! one of the reasons why we ditched it...the other was because the cat ended up with a tonne of mud inside it and after replacing it never was the same :crap:

Me personally would not bother with one for the 1st reason :agree:
