I bought the car from a man who said it belonged to his son while he was in college. He drove it back and forth from his campus in NC. The vehicle has been pretty good so far, with a few exceptions due to repairs that are needed.

The Wrangler is still pretty spectacular off-road. That, unfortunately, makes it pretty rough on it. The current car is better than ever but don’t expect to make effortless trans-continental trips in this car, whether you’re in the two or four-door version. You’ll die of boredom. The Wrangler might have been improved beyond all recognition from the old car, but that’s like saying that this version is going to snap your spine more gently than the last. It bounces, it shimmies, it can go off-road. And stay there. The more sensible of the very un-sensible people likely to buy a Wrangler will go for the 2.8-litre four-pot diesel, which produces 197 bhp. It’s not the most refined, but the torque - 339lb ft. of it - is ideal for off-roading. Unsurprisingly. There’s a 3.6-litre V6 too, but that’s best left well alone.
