Introduced as the most capable version of the JL-generation Wrangler range, the Rubicon Unlimited combines four-door practicality with serious off-road capability and this 2023 example was professionally prepared for specialist stunt and feature film work
Presented in purposeful condition throughout, the Jeep rides on BF Goodrich off-road tyres mounted to black alloy wheels and features heavy-duty sill step bars, a reinforced front bumper and additional A-pillar grab handles
Powered by a 2. 0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine offering 270bhp and coupled to an automatic transmission, this Rubicon is currently indicating less than180 miles from new, the majority whilst working on set, and benefits from a fully operational ABS system following the refitting of front radar and rear-view cameras
Originally painted yellow but subsequently externally refinished in grey as can be seen in our images
Specialist stunt modifications include a fully welded internal roll cage, four-point stunt harnesses, fire suppression system, rear-mounted stunt fuel cell housed within a steel containment box, electrical isolation system, dedicated stunt battery and an independent secondary stunt braking system operating the rear wheels
Professionally prepared by Auto Action, a globally recognised specialist in high-end stunt vehicle engineering, the Jeep was built for feature film stunt work before being returned to running on its main fuel tank, although the stunt fuel cell remains installed within its containment box, and is now offered freshly cleaned throughout with an MOT valid until May 2027 issued with no advisories
First registered in the UK on 20/ 06/ 2023. Two former registered keepers. Supplied with its V5C registration document, MOT and rear seats, this Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited represents an unusual opportunity to acquire a professionally prepared movie stunt vehicle. The MOT was completed with the rear seats removed as only the centre rear seat is currently fitted with a seatbelt
Carrying out your own research into any recent feature films or productions in which vehicles like this have appeared, could prove interesting for its next owner
