Summary
What does this car say about you?
Its smooth, classy and powerful enough to get the job done... No matter what!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
They love it.... they can all fit in it and get there quickly and in style.
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes... I have done (this is my second). OK so it costs more to run than a Ford Ka but its everything you could want in a car-fast, comfortable, loaded with gadgets
What are you likely to buy next?
Hopefully another Grand Cherokee-the overlander looks nice.

Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Independent
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£12,995
When did you buy the car?
November 2007
Did you get a good deal and why?
It was an "OK" deal. They didnt go out of their way to make me want to give them my money. They took a lot of chasing to finalise the deal....
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
I'd had a 3.0 CRD Limited before and loved it to pieces. (Your databases are oout of date... I have a 2.8 CRD Limited XS '05 which isn't listed)
What was the dealer like?
Not overly helpful. Also I managed to scrape the car on a car park pillar a few days after buying it (my own fault) and the quote they gave me for a re-spray of the area was more than 3 times more than quotes I got from other garages.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very Comfortable. Not great at speed when cornering but its a 4x4 not a Ferrari
What's it like to park?
Fine, thanks to the parking sensors. I would have said it could do with them on the front as well but I know they've added them to the new model.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No
What's most practical about your car?
The exit assisting seats are great (they wind back and down when you turn the ignition off to help you get out). Also its a huge car without being huge (smaller than some 4x4s but still very spacious)
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Auto seats & Folding Mirrors
