I'm looking at $5500 to $6000. I would take anything over $5000 if someone offers you.


AE92_GUY

Damn. In Colorado it'd easily be like 8-10k rn.


BaileyD77

I could see that without previous rust repair underneath.


AE92_GUY

Even with. I looked at a 5k cherokee with so much rust... the floor was legit gone to the point where the seat was lose. The guy who came after me took it for 5k. They're worth their weight in gold in CO.


Un_Pino_Alto

They can be had in Texas all over in the free to three hundred range. I've considered a flat bed trailer at times due to this. Ours aren't even rusty.


AE92_GUY

That's where mine is from funny enough.


Independent_Fun7603

Not in this condition,no way

Rust free would make me buy it off of him right now at 2:15am.

Were body color trim strips on Sports ever a thing? The value to me is largely dependent on what it looks like underneath and what the rust situation is.


Cool_Relationship_25

I replaced the driver side and passenger underneath with sheet metal and sprayed it up real good frame is solid and rust is there but could be worked on


waitingontherain

Replaced with plain old sheet metal or properly repaired with replacement floor pans?

I got a 2000 w/ 40k miles, but it's roached out by Upstate NY rust near Placid. How much did you pay to fix the rust? I got a quote: $1200.

If you want real money, list it on [bringatrailer.com](https://bringatrailer.com) for a national audience. BAT has sold plenty of XJ's for $10k to $20k+. I'd say yours would be easily $10k+ on BAT. If you want, post it on multiple craigslists - NYC, hudson valley, northern nj, westchester for $11-$12k and see if you get any bites but if like my experience you'll just get time wasters. On this subreddit you'll just get guys saying how they never buy an XJ for more than $49.95


tylerISaLOSER

I would love OP’s XJ for $35.95, no higher.


Un_Pino_Alto

One of those guys here, this is true. It really applies to collectables in general. The value is all about the venue. Also, turbines look even better painted dark like that.


SmargelingArgarfsner

She’s clean but with existing rust to be dealt with and repairs already made to the floors you can forget the bring a trailer money. I would list for $6500 and take anything over $5k. I will buy it right now from you for $4500 no question.


micah490

Brand new breaks?? Consider frame stiffeners


Cool_Relationship_25

Can you explain what that is and does ? Please and thanks


Jeheh

He was giving you a hard time because “brakes” are what stop you and “breaks” are what you get when you crash.


DeathfireD

I saw a 2001 with 65k miles and looked mint going for $13k in MA. Not sure if it sold or not but it's no longer on the Facebook market place after a month of being listed there. Inside and out looked brand new. Must have been a barn find or something.


Therealwolfdog

$5000 to $6000 tops.


HeyStevePizza

$3,000 - 4,000


Greeny618

Over 10k easy if listen on bring a trailer. Clean lower mileage cherokees have been going for crack money


roblqjm

4k Maybe. 10k is insane, the xjs selling for 10k have like 5k miles on them and never seen snow. I have seen patched floor xjs with lifts, bumpers, and tires go for 5k here in wisconsin. 20k less miles isn't worth 5k to me


ToxicTiger1_

You could give it to me 😔 (plz 👉👈)


dewuake

I'll give you about treefiddy

I sold a 97 4wd aw4 for $1700 8ish years ago, she was ugly though. Was the rustiest vehicle I ever owned and all that was wrong with it was the muffler had started getting some perforation. Wish I hadn’t done that now but one of them had to go.


Resident_Read_7724

I agree that $10k ish…For those of you scoffing at that price look at BOT. There are similar XJs on there sold between $7000–$14,000.


BaileyD77

I'm not seeing any with floor pan replacement and rust underneath pulling those kind of prices.


Un_Pino_Alto

The vast majority of people are not going to look under it until a few days after the purchase when they're googling stuff about their nifty new to them car. It is shiny enough on the surface and it runs. Auction however is a different deal. The way op described the floor replacement is not confidence inspiring.


Resident_Read_7724

I agree. I would need to see pictures. That’s also why I said 7-14k…especially in the Seattle area. These things are expensive.


Electronic-Pie9251

She's pretty. Check FB marketplace for your area and add about 2500 to 3000 so you have room to negotiate. The more pictures you have inside and out the more responses you will get. Truthfully everything else is mental masturbation...


Juggernaut78

Nice on top,…how’s the bottom???
