Few basic questions about a 92 XJ

muddy92xj · Dec 30, 2004

It has 82k on it. Paid 1200 for it. Has a 4.0 and a auto. I think it is a AW4. How many miles can i get out of it doe you think? What kind of MPG will i get? What should be done before i put it back on the road? Been sitting a while. From what little i know. It runs good. If i sell it is 1200 a fair price? Any help would be very Appreciated.

Thanks a lot mike

400,000 if you maintain it...300,000 if you don't.

Somewhere between 12 and 25.

Nothing if it runs fine. Change all the fluids, pump up the tires and go.

That is a good deal. I paid $7K(canadian) for my 92 with 130K miles

Agree about changing all fluids. In addition, I would carefully go through the brakes before driving. If a car stalls out it is inconvenient. If the brakes no workie ....
Sounds like you got a great deal depending on the shape of the body and interior.

Well, i did a dumb thing, i was looking at it just as it was getting dark and i missed a few things. It is a 2dr. Doors sag a bit. I guess they are heavy?? There is rusty rockers. Other then that it is in good shape. Runs nice. thanks for the replys.

rusty rockers are just an excuse to cut them out and install rock sliders

Everyone around here says it can easily go 200k before the first rebuild, just take care of it and it'll run forever.

I generally see about 15 city/17-20 highway in my 96.

I bought my 96 with 95k miles on it for $4500 with a cranky NSS. They replaced the water pump cuz it went bad on a test drive. I'd say you could probably get more than $1200 on yours with such low mileage, assuming its in decent shape. Just cut out the rockers and get sliders.

You can go to www.kbb.com - and you can find the book values. $1500 - $3000. Sounds like a great deal depending on condition!!
