Hi Chris
I have owned 4 Jeeps, 2 Cherokee and 2 Grand Cherokee. I've just upgraded to the new shape Grand. They are generally reliable, and personally I've never had any problem with service issues. I find Jeep spares reasonably priced, but like anything else there are bound to be surprises.
They are comfortable to drive and will pull virtually anything.
I would advise you check things like the Air Con, Power Steering and Fuel Injection pumps which are really expensive to replace, but no more than any luxury car. Some models suffer from warped front brake rotors (discs) which cost about £180 to replace. Trim items can be steep as well.
I think the main problem buyers face is history, obviously a well maintained road driven vehicle is more advisable than one that has been driven Off Road.
I sold my 2002, 2.7 CRD 39000 miles for £8000, so they are available.
HTH
