The Commander and GC are beautiful SUV's, but not something I'd want to go boonie hopping with.
That is known as a commander in the UK and it is not listed as a current model on the Jeep website in the UK anymore.

The only models listed are Patriot,Wrangler & Grand Cherokee.

As for bringing the XJ back it could not come back in the UK due to EU emissions and NCAP crash test requirements.

Even the great Landrover Defender will end in 2014 due to this bureaucracy!!

+1 totally agree, most if not all these new cars aren't going to last nor run past 300,000 miles, there almost like a disposable camera.
