Third try at buying a New XJ
Finally set a day to go look at the cherokee i wanted to realize he sold it when the day came up so here i am at my third attempt of buying a cherokee
Heres the ad http://nh.craigslist.org/ctd/2849123663.html its only a se model that the only bad thing but the good it has low miles ad says 57k but it actually has 55k, its a 1 owner with zero rist originally from texas been there for 50k of it life. Also it was a company vehicle that was all highway miles clean title everything is good to go. I have the dealer at 4500 as of yet with still room to negotiate hoping to het it for 4200.
What im asking everyone on here would it seem like a good idea to you or what would you pay
The bad to me was its an se so no power windows or locks only am/fm radio(easy to fix that) and the "dummy" gauge cluster

I've seen some very well equipted XJ's for that price, albeit with higher mileage. Sometimes low mileage is not a good thing- a vehicle not driven will tend to have dried out seals and gaskets. Check for recent maintainence and inspect it over well. In my state that would sell for about $3500 or less.
