This 2008 Jeep has 20 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 30,167 miles. The vehicle's past neglect and potential odometer tampering make it an extremely high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory shows a critical decrease from 35,323 miles in Oct 2011 to 0 miles in Sep 2012, followed by an unusually high jump before Sep 2013, and a massive spike of 73,182 miles between Jul 2024 and Jul 2025.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Oct 2011 (35,323 mi) and Sep 2012 (0 mi) — possible odometer tampering.
- Mileage decreased from 35,323 miles (Oct 2011) to 0 miles (Sep 2012) — possible odometer tampering.
- Dangerous brake failures recorded in Sep 2018 and Oct 2019, indicating severe safety neglect.
- Recurring major suspension failures (5 times) and advisories (10 related) across multiple tests.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2025): 4-star safety rating.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-07-20, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects were recorded in the last test (Jul 2025).
- The 4.0L straight 6 engine is known for its longevity in older Jeep models.
