Hi all, I am looking at buying a '98 Grand Cheroke 4Liter LaredoAuto with 112000kms on the clock (70,000 miles)
Anything I should particularly look out for? Any known issues

Not much experience with¨"grown up" Jeeps, I've always had CJ's and YJ's.

Thanks in advance

nothing more then any other car really.. I mean check for blow by (oil) in the air box.. also make sure it has good heat 9this can be a pricey fix)

Other then that just make sure there are no noises form the engine, the car doesn't over heat.. and make sure the trans works good..

Thanks for that. I had a test drive yesterday and it seemed ok, so I bought it.

I managed to get it for 3200 in the end. (Almost 4600 dollars)
Hopefully pick it up tomorrow after they valet it and do the paperwork.

Here's to some happy Jeepin'
