Insight summary

Jeep Wrangler is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 4,606 represented vehicles and 0.01% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 81.9% from 24,589 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 53. The current pool shows an average of 54,011 miles and an average age of 9.6 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 73,482 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by diesel, and the most frequent defect themes are windscreen damage, parking brake and lighting. The practical read is that the Jeep Wrangler looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
