Newbie addict from the UK
Hi All
i appreciate that I’m a long way away but I’ve been a Jeep fan since 1993 when the Jeep brand was introduced to the UK. I was a Nissan sales executive and joined Jeep for the first 5 years of their existence over here. I love the XJ, had plenty of demos over the 5 years and 9 years ago became an XJ addict. I currently have 9. Ranging from my latest 1995 red 4.0 Sport purchase pulled out of a barn after 11 years and a facelift 1997 4.0 Limited leather that hadn’t seen the light of day for 21 years!
My pride and joy is a 1996 Moss Green 4.0 Limited SE (unique to the UK with bridge of weir leather and door capping... I will attempt to put some images attached to this thread.

Welcome.
Some very nice examples.
Betting the '97 will clean up pretty good.
The European models always interest me.
I like to see the interiors.
The subtle differences that European ones have.
Rear seat headrests, the Limited door panels are sometimes different then US versions, etc.
If you could post some shots that would be great.

Those first 2 shots of the door panels in the Limited SE are so cool.
Never seen those before.
If I had a '96 and down I would have to have those. LOL.
Wondering if you could could use them in a LHD.
Take the switches from a LHD and use them with those door panels.
Almost looks like you could pull it off.
I am in the process of trying to put headrests in the rear seat of my '00.
Another thing I like about the European XJ's.
