PROS: This small four-wheel drive is in insurance group 21, which is good, plus it seats five occupants. The car comes fitted with alloy wheels, air conditioning, Bluetooth, MP3 connectivity and cruise control.
CONS: The CO2 emissions produced by this car are damaging and have influenced the car's expensive road tax. The car is not especially efficient to run either, so this is an expensive choice considering the car does not have climate control, electric door mirrors or leather seating.
For a car of this build it is unsurprisingly slow as it can travel from 0mph to 62mpg in a sluggish 12.9 seconds. The car has an average power output of 197bhp, but its torque is quite powerful at 339 lb-ft.

Equipment as standard with this model includes MP3 connectivity, Bluetooth, cruise control, air conditioning, electric front windows and alloy wheels.
Satellite navigation can be purchased for an additional £1,200 while metallic paint costs £500.

It comes with a warranty of three years of ownership or up to 60,000 miles.

When the rear seats are upright there is a limited 142 litres of storage space, and when the rear seats are folded there is a 430 litres, which is limited for a four-wheel drive.
The Jeep Wrangler 2.8 CRD Sahara 2dr can be bought brand new for £25,995. This is expensive for a two-door four-wheel drive that doesn’t provide too much space or a vast range of equipment.
It is also expensive to run as the car performs on a standard 34.9mpg. It has CO2 emissions of 213g/km, which equate to high road tax costs.
