JEEP WRANGLER (1996-07) 2DR SOFT TOP 4WD 4.0 SPORT
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The JEEP WRANGLER (1996-07) 2DR SOFT TOP 4WD 4.0 SPORT is a compact, two-door 4x4 and a distinctly characterful alternative to mainstream family SUVs. Its removable soft roof, upright shape and rugged image make it instantly recognisable. In the UK it sits in a niche, more adventure-focused corner of the used-car market.
Mycarcheck.com recorded 104 look-ups covering 58 different VINs in this sample. Checks show an average private-sale value of £8,800, average recorded mileage of 65,000 miles and average annual mileage of just 1,000 miles. Vehicles checked had nearly five previous keepers on average; these figures are not a guarantee for an individual example.
The 4.0-litre engine and four-wheel drive suit trails, camping and open-air trips, while the cabin and two doors are less practical for family duty. It best fits enthusiasts seeking off-road character rather than low running costs; compared with SUV rivals, the Wrangler feels purposeful and fun.
