DESCRIPTION
One of the most likely origins of the word "jeep' was from the Popeye cartoon series. Eugene the Jeep was his "jungle pet", small and able to solve impossible problems. At the time, as war raged in Europe, the earliest Jeeps formed a lasting impression on the American soldier which helped the adoption of the term Jeep. Even more impressive was the time taken from concept to production of a design that has stood the test of time and become an unlikely motoring icon. From tenders being sent out, to a production run took less than two hundred days. The cast was set for a deciding factor which influenced the outcome over the next five years, this was Americas' ability to produce in vast numbers well designed hardware for the war effort. As the war progressed Willys produced over 300,000 Jeeps and millions more future models would stem from that icon piece of automotive design.
With only 51000 miles from new this 1997 Jeep Wrangler has an exceptional full Jeep service history and all of the bills and invoices show that it has had a "no expense spared' life since new. The car has just been serviced and will be supplied with a full MoT test certificate. It also features optional polished alloy wheels with uprated Powertrain suspension, dual exit Powerflow exhaust and full weather gear. The car sounds like thunder and the 4.0 litre engine pulls like a train. Arnold Schwarzenegger would be proud!
