The Appeal
Effortlessly solid and fearlessly rugged, the Jeep Wrangler continues to be one of the market's most evocative off-roaders, and it's only proven further by examples like this one - with the much-regarded 3.6-litre Pentastar V6. This is the spec that transformed the Wrangler JK into a genuinely torquey, modern daily driver with excellent off-road potential.
This particularly fine Mountain edition is an ex-Japanese import with verified low mileage and comprehensive service history, which we're sure any enthusiast will agree is deeply desirable. Being from a salt-free environment, the chassis and underbody appear in very good order; a rare find for a JK Wrangler in the UK.
Beautifully fitted out with a skid plate, bull bar and auxiliary off-road lights—useful, easily reversible, and not a hacked-up build - this impressive future classic is sure to impress at auction.
