2001 Xj Jeep Cherokee Sport 4-door 4.0l 4x4 4-wheel Drive Adult Owned Off-road on 2040-cars

2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4x4

You are looking at a VERY nice example of a 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport. The perfect compromise of on/off-road capability, low maintenance cost, "bulletproof" reliability, and good looks. I've owned this vehicle since 2010 and have loved every minute of it. The only reason I'm selling is because we have too many cars and this one doesn't get the attention it deserves.

If you are looking for a well-maintained, excellent running start for a radical off-road project, or just looking for a very capable daily driver, you are looking at the right auction.  

Let's start with the positives:

• Low Miles: Just over 105k (Still driven occasionally so it will be between 105k and 106k), less than 9k per year
• Nicely factory optioned including power doors, windows, cruise, AC (Needs Charged), Automatic Transmission, cloth interior, roof rack, flat folding rear cargo area, full size spare looks like it's never been used
• Lightly customized including 2" lift kit, oversized wheels and tires (New 11/2011), upgraded headlights and heavy wattage wiring (from dim sealed beams to 100W H4 11/2010), Tinted Glass, In-channel Weathertech Vent Visors, Keyless entry with remote start (11/2010), heavy-duty Bilstein Shocks (11/2011), brand new brake rotors, calipers, and drums (11-12/2011) -- Receipts available for upgrades, and most maintenance.
• Maintenance: Since i've owned it has only had FULL synthetic oil changes (most recently 09/2013), Cooling system and Radiator flush/fill (12/2012), Transmission service flush and fill (12/2012), driver's hood latch replaced.
• Sale includes an extra full set of used LT 235 75 "15 BF Goodrich T/A KO tires mounted on American Racing aluminum wheels. (Excellent spares, see photo)
• Vehicle starts and drives like a champ, runs smoothly and needs nothing to be driven daily. Automatic shifts smoothy, brakes well, heater works well.
• Watch a video of me starting up and walking around here: http://s871.photobucket.com/user/MagicMack/media/PB090030_zps95e619e5.mp4.html (if the link doesn't work please copy and paste into your browser)
• I have attached a Kelley Blue Book Private Party valuation screen shot (see photo) of the vehicle in only FAIR condition showing $6096.00, but I feel that with the upgrades and extras it is worth even more. My starting price is FAR less than in even fair condition.

Negatives that I know about:

• Small amount of rust (see photos) - Nothing horrible, and I believe repairable - in common areas - above windshield, near rear side glass, bottoms of doors
• Small split in the side vinyl of the driver's seat - does not go through to the padding, only the vinyl (see photo)
• Salt-stained carpeting at the driver's position - Common for Northeastern Ohio but not horrible
• Liftgate pistons get weak when it's cold - Available on Amazon for under $18.00 each
• Small hole in the plastic interior trim around the liftgate - Broke a small piece off while loading a sod-cutter I rented into the back - Available from Jeep for $68.54
• Normal scratches, dings etc...(see photos), but in excellent condition for being 12+ years old
• Typically gets only 17mpg (which is only 1 less than factory avg, but still good with large tires)
• Decals on rear glass and stickers are high-quality vinyl and can be easily removed without leaving a residue.
