Hi, UK based. 1st Jeep owner.
Bought a project Jurassic Park Jeep in 2022 and have steadily been replacing, refitting, restoring, respraying, remortgaging to keep her going on our rubbish British roads.
Driven approx 10,000 miles so far and, touch wood, only one proper breakdown.
Not bad for a 37 year old jeep with 163000 miles on the clock.
Here to find out as much as I can to keep her roadworthy and just keep on truckin!
