4 Door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

Post by grimbo »

Loks like I'll finally be owning a Jeep. From initial reports the 4 door Wrangler could be heading ourway. Australia is the next best country for Wrangler sales after the US and they reckon it will come here as it is being slated for right hand drive builds

yeah it rocks alright.
i'd like to think it's still possible to get the rubi here... for the above sales reason and also because they are nice to us with things like the d44 rear in the TJ's :D :D

A Jeep salesman in Sydney who is a member of our club says he is 99% sure we are getting the Rubicon.

Never thought I'd consider selling the TJ, but a 4 door Wrangler would make me seriously, seriously consider it.

Wonder how much $$?
Apparently people think I'm too patronising (that means I treat them like they’re stupid).

... and the JK also comes with CV joints. :D

I wonder if it'll win some four wheel drive of the year awards in the Aussie mags?

Experience is something you don't get, until just after you need it.

Scroll up ^ there's a pic of the 4 door with a hardtop ;) So I guess the answer is "Yes it does"
