Best Year to Buy?

Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2020 model has the highest MOT pass rate at 97%, while the 2008 model has the lowest at 72%. The 2022 scores 76%, but cars from 2022 weren't due their first routine MOT until 2025, so its figure isn't compared here. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger, so compare years of a similar age.

Buying a Used 2022 Jeep Wrangler

At 4 years old, the Jeep Wrangler offers good value with plenty of life remaining. Most manufacturer warranties will have expired, so a pre-purchase inspection is worth the cost.

Common Issues to Watch For

These are typical issues for cars of this age, fuel type and engine size, not faults recorded on this model's MOT tests. Use them as a checklist when you view one.

Oil Consumption

Low risk

Larger petrol engines can develop higher oil consumption as they age. Check the oil level and look for blue smoke from the exhaust.

Service History

Low risk

Always request a full service history. Regular servicing is the single best indicator of how well a car has been maintained, regardless of mileage.
