Guys,
I'm selling my 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. It has Burgundy exterior with a dark Tan vinyl interior which is pretty resilient. The truck has a tough as nails 4.0L inline 6 cylinder and has 210k miles. The truck is my current daily driver, but with the recent addition of the X5 and getting my M3 back on the road, I'm trying to thin out the stable.
The Jeep is an excellent work/daily truck. For those of you who have had Jeeps or have them now, you know what I mean. The repairs for the issues this truck has are pretty straightforward and if you've ever worked on your e30 then this is going to be a piece of cake as well. There are plenty of Jeep forums just like R3V for e30s that I'm a member of and it’s a mirror image of the support and DIYs of this site. The parts are really inexpensive to boot. I wanted to keep it and use it as a off-roader and slap some better tires on it, but there is nowhere to do that kind of stuff around me and I don't currently have the free time to work on it. Overall, it’s a good truck that just needs a little TLC and some time to be great.
