Wrangler attacks Defender

Funny how after more than 50 years in competition with one and other, the new Jeep comes along just after Land Rover has updated its iconic off-roader.

Coincidence aside, the new Jeep Wrangler arrives next month with prices starting at £17,995 for the two-door model that can trace its roots back to the Second World War original.

There's also a new Unlimited model, which is actually limited to four doors, with a starting price of £19,995.

The two-door Rubicon model is the hairy-chested off-road version that comes with a 3.8-litre petrol engine for those who like to get dirty at the weekends.

The rest of the range makes do with a new 2.8-litre turbodiesel.

Sales start next month, with the Wrangler aiming to pinch customers from its arch-rival, the Land Rover Defender.
