Forget the squinty headlights and tiny wheels, what makes the Cherokee 75^th edition stand out on arrival is the colour!

There are six paint pots to choose from but ours came wrapped for Christmas in Recon Green – and it totally looks the part.

Manufacturers seem to have lost the plot when it comes to paint these days. But I’d rather pay a little extra to have something to make a car stand out from the crowd.

The 75^th Edition Cherokee scores massively on style, especially as most mid-size SUVs look like they were designed by a child working with a pen-knife and cardboard box.

Good start then but I’m already wondering why the internet is littered with three star reviews for the Cherokee. I wonder what’s inside…
