Which Grand Cherokee ?

[sparkythecat]

I quite fancy a diesel Grand Cherokee, which appear very good value for money.
A budget of up to £6k will get me either a good late model WJ or an early WK model but which is best?

Yes its the choice of dervs that Im on about.
5cyl WJ v the V6 WK

I'm still looking.
I haven't dismissed the 4 litre LPG, but, I don't know enough about LPG to make an informed decision. I'll be using it to occasionally tow a boat and the fact that the diesel engine has more torque than the petrol is tempting me more in that direction.

Are there any particular LPG kits to avoid or any that are better than others?

I keep hearing mention of Flashlube. Is that only necessary on the V8 motors?

Just to conclude the thread and disappoint you Jeep lovers. I've just bagged myself a very tidy '04 Mitsubishi Shogun SWB and much to my surprise, I actually like it a lot.

It's actually one of the early traction control models.
I found the Paj owners club, (good recommendation BTW)which is a mine of information and I've also bought a maintenance manual off Amazon. It's a fair weighty tome, published for the Australian market. I think it's probably sufficiently detailed to enable me to disassemble it down to its base components of earth, air, fire and water.
