• V8 officially registered since 2003 and fully rebuilt in 2022 – approximately 4,000 km driven since

The Jeep Wrangler combines classic Jeep character with robust 4x4 engineering and a powerful 4,981 cc V8, paired with a manual transmission.

This example was first registered on 14 December 1990 and is finished in a striking Triple Black colour combination, with black bodywork, a black soft top and a black interior with orange accents. The chassis has an indicated mileage of 95,547 km.

The Wrangler was originally delivered with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine. The current V8 conversion has been officially registered in the Belgian vehicle documents since 2003. In 2022, the 4,981 cc V8 was fully rebuilt and has covered only approximately 4,000 km since.

The extensive nut-and-bolt restoration was combined with a carefully selected range of upgrades. These include a lift kit, winch bumper, BFGoodrich Baja Champion tyres, Rigid Industries LED driving lights, wider wheel arch extensions, side steps and a dual stainless-steel exhaust. The interior was also upgraded with black seats featuring diamond stitching and orange accents, a Grant sports steering wheel and matching water bottles.
