1997 Jeep Cherokee 2.5 TD - dodo
Having sold my old Land Rover I am on the look out for something a bit more up to date. Have been offered a 97 Jeep Cherokee 2.5 TD Limited. Nice car in black with alloys aircon etc. It has 6 months MOT and 2 months tax. It drives well and with atowbar it will do the job. What should I look out for? Is it okay at £2850? Need to go back tomorrow night if I want it. Goes to auction on Wednesday. Thanks

A/C evaporators leak, and it's a dash out job. The engine is a VM one with seperate cylinder heads that get through a few head gaskets. Air intake low so prone to hydraulicing the engine if you venture far off road. General cost of spares high compared to LR.
