Petrol or CRD, after problems with a CRD JK at 160,000k I would stay away from any second hand CRD, any brand not just Jeep.

My KK is a 2011 Limited V6 3.7L, done about 72000 ks
Hwy trips are in the low 9s ,not bad for an 1888kg brick !
i run Mobil 1 5w20 oil and 98 octane Shell fuel , it must like it ,the motor is surprisingly smooth ,at idle its hard to tell its running.

Good luck with the search , should not be hard to find a nice one. they are a solid little truck.
what colour you want ?.

Any water in the rear hatch area after decent rain? Can be rust/cracks where the roof rails bolt to the roof. They can crack there.

Apart from that i've done 43000K's and no issues except for a aircon pump that is a bit noisy when in use. Should of been replaced under warranty but previous owner neglected to do this in due time so I am stuck with it until I get another one.

Oh, and 13.6L per 100k on caltex 98 around town.

My family has outgrown my KK. So I am selling mine.
White 2009 with 110k kms, 3.7l V6 Auto
It has a 2" CRDSTU lift kit
Uneek 4x4 bullbar -black
Frontrunner roofrack
BF Goodrich Mud Terrains
Jeep skid plates
I have a custum built drawer system for the rear as well.

It is a solid unit. I have crossed the Simpson desert twice, with my wife and three boys.

Average consumption is ~14l/100km.
I am about to trade it, so if you are interested, pm me urgently.
