Jeep Cherokee Td Sport LE (1995)
1995 Jeep Cherokee Td Sport LE
CarHunch analysed 209 real MOT records for the 1995 Jeep Cherokee Td Sport LE. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 1995 Jeep Cherokee TD Sport LE has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 59.9%, well below the UK average of 80%, which means roughly four in ten will fail their test. About 14% have recorded dangerous defects at some point, a relatively modest concern, though the consistently poor diesel pass rate (59.7%) suggests the model carries inherent reliability weaknesses rather than isolated issues.
At 117,000 miles on average, these vehicles are high-mileage for their age, yet they're still averaging 1.52 failures and 5.5 advisories per test—indicating wear is catching up fast. If you're considering one, budget for regular repairs and plan a pre-purchase inspection focused on the diesel engine, fuel system, and brakes, as these older Cherokees are prone to compound problems as they age.
What to check before buying a 1995 Jeep Cherokee Td Sport LE
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
