It'll be pricey, but it's a J8, so chances are if you shell out the clams, you're a little crazy anyway
Not sure about legality of road use.

You would see a diesel JK before you will see another Liberty diesel. Liberty will disappear in a few years with the Patriot/Compass and the 4-door Wranglers in the lineup in my opinion. they selling the diesel wrangler unlimited 4 door here,costs 44,000 euros |

I'd still like a Rescue. I seriously doubt that Jeep will ever build it but I can hope. Until they do I'll wait for the diesel Wrangler Rubicon 4 dr. |

Not to mention the 25% import tax on all vehicles pass or fail. I had attorney's looking into this for my business. It's basically setup this way to protect the car market here. If it were remotely do-able, you know how many people would be bringing in all sorts of stuff? There is always gonna be the "I heard of a guy who..." type scenario. |

There was a US titled CRD Wrangler on Ebay a couple of months ago. It was a low mileage 07 model. I screwed up by not using the buy it now option. I wanted it bad but never paying full price for something allowed someone else to snap it up. |

Theres alot of information out there on the grey market import, and its all very discouraging. Ive been there, done that, and given up. How about a Cummins 4 cyl??? Too big? And how about a 6 speed auto? Flying to Phoenix today to pick up my Diesel Weasel and be with family for Christmas. I keep thinking of a diesel unlimited but what I have is quite nice. |

It's not impossible, just expensive. There's always gonna be some guy who's gung-ho and calls us up wanting a diesel wrangler unlimited. I say great, and give him the price and never hear from him again. Converting anew wrangler is not a cheap prospect...well maybe a little cheaper than AEV...yikes! Off road only too
