2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Pretty quick for its size, will keep up with the hot hatch brigade. ~260bhp on tap and oodles of torque. Built quite well too, no creaking or rattles. interior styling i typically American - big knobs, green LED displays, tape deck, 10 disc changer. Awesome leather seats with loads of buttons & heating. I get around 16 mpg, but am running LPG. The LPG cost me £1200 & is half the price of petrol. Tyres have just cost me ~£470 for all 4 - good make/spec. V8 rumble is kick ass, auto box is very smooth and kick down is good too. It even corners better than I thought!

Heaps of grunt, comfort and excellent towing capacity.

Just purchased my second Jeep GC. Love it so much. Hate the gas milage though. This Overland V8 is hitting me in my pocket much worse than my GC Laredo V6 does. Overall Jeeps will run FOREVER as long as you do your regular maintance on them.

Nice vehicle, Great power and ride

This is the 2.7LiterMercedes Benz diesel engined Jeep. Great fuel economy for a car this size. The engine has great torque and fairly good 4X4 capabilities.The seats in this Jeep are the most comfortable seats in any car I have ever owned.

Great Handling on and off road, plenty of power.

I have leased/owned 7 Grand Cherokees over the years and I have never had a bad one!...Excellent vehicle..

Great 4WD ability, plenty of power and comfort, and tows the boat easily.

Car is reliable but may have minor or major damage mechanically with time and wear my car has around 110,000 miles some problems include the radiator fan relay, radiator expanding, cruise control not working, brake vacuum, delayed shifting and no a working A/C in dash vents. There is very little feel in the steering and suspension does not take mid sized bumps well. Some things that are good is the front seat comfort and the power seats, the engine will not fail mo matter what you throw at it, the gas mileage in the I6 engine is decent I average around 18 MPG which is good compared to my other car which averages 12 MPG, you can tow around 3,500 lbs with the 6 cylinder and can haul a lot inside with the back seats down, they fold down to make a flat floor, the frame and body are very sturdy it has been in several hail storms and accidents with its previous owner, good price would be around 6 thousand for a very good condition car or 3 to 4.5 thousand dollars for a decent running vehicle, the interior is overall good very few knobs on the dash, but it is comfortable roomy and not to plasticy.

I drove this car back to a dealership to help out a collegue who borrowed it for a week-end. I immediately fell in love with the 2.7L 5-cilinder Mercedes Benz turbodiesel powerplant under the bonnet. It's lowdown grunty roar sounds very good (for a diesel, 5-cilinder petrol engines sound even better). It has a lot of character, but also power and couple. It had no difficulty to move this tractor around town (yes, the preferred habitat of the SUV) at inspiring speeds. The automatic gearbox goes very well together with the engine. The seats are a bit too wide for an average European (1m80, 75kg), and with the all leather interior, you feel lucky the car doesn't corner that fast that you start sliding from one end to another in the driver's seat. The ride is comfortable, although you feel this car was originally designed to be robust and conquer any kind of road (even non-existing ones),... except for paved roads. It's far from perfect, but I love it anyway.
