1999 BURGUNDY JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!

This is a burgundy colored jeep with beige leather interior, power sunroof, 4 wheel drive, 10 disc CD changer. 227k miles, but mostly highway, and still has MUCH git-up-and-go and many miles left in it!

The Good - This Jeep is PURDY! Burgundy colored, and body in good condition with no rot or rust (minor little scratches but nothing to detract from appearance).
Rare 6 Cylinder engine
Currenly registered and driven daily
Runs great! Always starts right up, rides decent.
Recent front and rear brakes/rotors
Tires in decent shape
Recent tie-rod/ball joints

The Bad - Interior in fairly good condition - there is a tear in the leather at the seams of the drivers' side seat, and both front seats show signs of wear - not horrible, but...rear seats in
much better shape.
Passenger side REAR door only opens from the inside...don't know why!
227k miles, but adult, highway driven for the most part. We've owned it for approx. 4 yrs and never stalled, hesitated, or failed to start.
Small "crack" in the front passenger side fiberglass bumper (from when I slid into a shopping carriage last winter)

The Ugly - Ok, here it is...the power windows won't go down, and the heat/AC is not working. Also, the "Miles to Empty" display doesn't show actual miles to empty...just a " - ", then the
words "Miles to Empty". I had the wiring in the drivers side door replaced in an effort to fix the windows (so you have new wiring!), but it didn't work. I have no idea what the
problem is with any of these things, but I don't have a friend who's a mechanic, and can't afford to try to fix.

Excerpt from Kelly Blue Book (KBB rates vehicles Excellent, Good, Fair, or Poor) - KBB Value on this jeep in this condition with this mileage is $4,105.00

Fair Condition
$4,105

Some mechanical or cosmetic defects and needs servicing but is still in reasonable running condition.
Clean title history, the paint, body and/or interior need work performed by a professional.
Tires may need to be replaced.
There may be some repairable rust damage.

If you ARE a mechanic, or if you know a good mechanic, this would probably be nothing for you to fix (or have fixed). I have more pictures if you're interested. Asking $3,000.00 or best offer. Cash buyers only, please!
