1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer limited review from North America
"Not bad for its age"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The water hose broke once, so the engine overheated and stalled as I drove into my driveway. The seats broke off the runners, and the ceiling fabric starting falling off. The fake wood started peeling off and a slight rust problem.
General comments?
This car was way to expensive for what it really is. I bought this thing in 87 for 24,000 dollars. After a decade or so it started falling apart. Damn good engine though. Unexpected considering the engine was AMC, Renault, and Jeep. The seats are also very uncomfortable. The audio system was terrible too, but easily fixable I guess.
