Few cars are as distinctive and instantly recognisable as the Jeep Wrangler, with a clear design nod to the original Willys Jeep the Wrangler built upon the success of previous Jeeps to become an iconic vehicle in its own right.
The long bonnet, huge wheel arches, soft-top/hardtop and easily removable doors make for an unmistakable design that's stood the test of time and has an undeniable appeal to anyone who loves cars.
Finished in red with black trim, aftermarket XD wheels and big AT tyres this Jeep is a car that attracts attention wherever it goes, but the fantastic looks aren’t the reason that this Jeep appeals; it’s the driving experience.
Whether off-road excitement or just heading to the beach with the roof off in the summer a Wrangler is always fun to drive.
Some signs of wear to the bolster of the driver's seat
Generally good condition throughout
Aftermarket stereo
Climbing up into the AMG semi-bucket seat of this Wrangler you immediately feel ready for just about anything.
With the long bonnet stretching ahead, the roof off and the windows down it provides a summertime driving experience that's hard to beat. But this isn’t just a summer car; the impressive off-road capabilities of the Wrangler combined with the hard-top and bucket seats make this the perfect tool for some off-road winter fun.
The dash, dials and door cards are all in good condition and everything works as it should.
Slightly high idle speed on start up but comes down once warmed up
Recent new alternator belt
The Jeep presents well overall for its age and starts and runs well.
The owner informs us that it drives very well and has no issues other than a slightly high idle before it warms up. We think the underside would benefit from sealing if you plan to use it in the wet, but otherwise this Jeep is ready to go.
The Jeep Wrangler is one of those cars that is instantly recognisable and finished in red with the black XD wheels, it is certainly a car that makes an impression.
With fantastic off road performance and both hard and soft tops included as well as a current MOT this is a great opportunity to own one of these fantastic vehicles.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

£0 to £9,999
£100.00

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
