So as the title says I am a Noob, I am finally buying my first Jeep.
I tried putting a thread in a different topic the other day, but after doing some research and finally have a chance to properly look around the forum I figured this would hopefully be my best bet.
I have decided to get an XJ as my first Jeep, have always wanted one and now is my time.
The one I am currently looking at is a stock 1995, 185,000 miles and I believe is a Country (Now I am not sure, but believe the only difference between the Country, SE and Sport are trim options and packages?) for $1,300.
I know that the location does affect the price somewhat, but am wondering if the price seems right?
I am located in PA the price seems good according to KBB, but as the point of this thread is to get advice and support from other Jeepers and knowledge and understanding.
Based on what I have stated so far does it seem like a good deal, should I worry about the mileage?
The person I am purchasing from is a state away from me so I want to have all the info I need to be armed with for my trip.
I have only had communication with the seller via email and text, but have seen some fairly detailed pictures so far.
I would give the body about 7/10 and the interior 5-6/10.
From what I can see it does not appear to have any rust, I know to check the floors, rockers and roof though.
I am not much of a mechanically inclined person, that is part of the reason I am also getting this.
I understand that this is a 20 year old vehicle and am prepared to turn a wrench and learn all I can.
This will be my daily driver, as well as a work in progress.
So here is where all of you come in...
What can and should I look for, is this a good deal or should I keep looking?
I know all of you have been here at one time or another so I am hoping the community can and will share with me the advice and knowledge I need to purchase my first Jeep with.
I thank you all in advance for the help I hope to get!
P.S.- Since I am new it seems like I cannot post pictures yet, if they would help I can send some if you PM me, thank you again.
