With a starting price of £48,850 ($68,145) in the United Kingdom, the latest generation Jeep Wrangler is already a pricey cookie, yet the new Wrangler 1941 edition is even more expensive at £58,050 ($80,978).
Celebrating the brand’s 80th anniversary, it builds on the Wrangler Rubicon, which is offered from £51,350 ($71,632) locally. It is limited to 41 units and boasts several mechanical and visual enhancements meant to boost its off-road prowess.
