Economy
Value
Bought second hand from jeep dealer and I reckon its a bargain compared to new prices. Great spec as well, love the heated leather seats.
Costs
Disappointed at the fuel costs. I don't know how anyone can get the claimed 31mpg, lucky if I get 24mpg. Had no other costs to incur though.

Driving
Not the best road car and wallows a lot in corners but no more than I expected for a 4x4.
Performance
Sluggish when cold and engine rattly but once warmed it picks up well for such a heavy car.

Living with it
Reliability
Interior light comes on now and again for a few seconds. Think its something to do with the tailgate switch but apart from that been perfect.
Image
Love its looks and feel it stands out from the crowd being a Jeep.
Comfort
Excellent driving position. Can sit in it all day with no problems. don't know what its like in the back though. It can be a little jarring over bumps especially from the rear wheels.
