SUMMARY
An original, UK-supplied, right-hand drive Jeep Wrangler Sahara that has benefited from a lengthy £22,000 restoration.
DESCRIPTION
- The second-generation Wrangler – known as the YJ and identifiable by its square headlamps – retained leaf springs on all four corners but saw a few subtle upgrades over the CJ, including fuel-injected engines, more comfortable seating and better ergonomics
- Sahara models gained a classier look with upgrades such as body-colour wheel arches and a Sahara-specific interior, the highlight being high-back seats in soft blue canvas and natural leather
Full details to follow.
