Ever since Jeep released its latest version of the Grand Cherokee in 2011 it has been a revelation. Here we have an American 4WD that has legendary off road capability combined with a powerful and economical diesel motor packaged in a stylish body.
The MY 2014 Laredo has a host of external enhancements including new bi-xenon HID headlamps with signature LED daytime running lights (DRLs), new wheels designs, larger tail lamps with LED lighting, a larger and more aerodynamic rear spoiler, new bumpers and a re-sculpted tailgate that offers greater visibility and a host of detail styling changes. It does however retain Jeep’s classic seven-slot grille albeit a little shorter.

Having previously lived at the top of corporate life he retired in 2000 and hasn’t put a suit and tie on since. Cars are his passion so why not have a business doing what you love he figures.
