@14:30 100% I was fortunate to find a 2 owner XJ up in the mountains for $3500 about 7 years ago. Even then everyone said I paid too much for it, but it was a manual with 150k miles and ZERO rust with a mint interior. It's got 235k on it today and still has almost zero rust except a few spots where paint has cracked, but it's still minimal and more like a patina surface rust. I plan to keep this thing running until my kid is old enough to enjoy it responsibly. People want to call these Jeep "shitboxes" but they're only shit boxes if you let them get that way and I have no problems with that. The more XJs these people let rot to the ground the more valuable our nice XJs become.

I inherited a 98 XJ Sport with 112K on the odometer that I am picking up in February. It’s not gonna be only vehicle for sure, but it’s definitely my first driver so I’m not parting with it even when I start up a little fleet of trucks haha.

Just bought my second XJ. It’s a white, completely stock 2000 XJ Sport with 56k original miles. It’s been a garaged, Arizona car it’s whole life. The paint is fantastic and interior is like new. I paid $11,500 for it. I only have a 6 mile round trip commute to and from work and it will be garaged next to my project euro spec 928. It will be babied

Such beauties. I got a 99 last year, there is a short circuit around the OBD port, I have to push the wires inside... the error that it produces is that the SKIM module stops reading the key, so the engine tuirns and then stalls again. Would anyone recommend bypassing the SKIM? I'd rather have it working so it is more unstealable but I don;t want to the the XJ for a spin and get stranded.

@@drewjones3601 I had very similar problems with my '96 jeep cheroke country with a decent interior and no rust except for a few surface spots. I got quite a good deal on it about a year ago, but when I got one thing fixed another thing started leaking. I got my power stearing and water pump replaced and still got a squeaky belt. It ended up being a bent belt tensioner bracket and the belt tensioner bearing wasn't 100% smooth, even after ordering a bunch of aftermarket ones. Then I eventually had to replace my fan shroud because the fan would scrape against it.
