What freelander 2 did you have I thought they were ok???( Not as good as the Sport mind )...

The FL2 is a fine vehicle if you haven't driven one of the bigger LRs e.g. RRS. If you stepped in to the FL2 from a normal car or one of the far east 4x4 you'd be more than happy with it. It's a good drive, handles pretty well, is accomplished off road (for something that isn't permanent 4WD and doesn't have a low range gearbox etc.).

The problem for us is that we have driven the bigger LRs and therefore the FL2 feels down market in comparison, bouncy, thrashy, noisy etc. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Oh right not one to step down to then?....Think ill stay in mine for now.....

Welcome back mate, I hate the Freelanders I had one about 4 years ago and always wished I was in a RRS. I did wonder when I came round to collect the oil service kit from you WHY ??? you got a Freelander........good luck in your search keep us updated.

Loved my FL2 but the Sport is in a different league.  Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...

Gone but not forgotten:
2014 RRS2 SDV6 HSE in Loire Blue
2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE in Santorini Black

None of you are wrong..... But hey we learn from our mistakes.....

Fingers crossed I can find the right one at the right money....

I have both, go for the 5.0 Supercharger awesome car and sod the mpg. The noise and get up and go is something else.

I do so few miles each year mpg has never been a consideration...... Now noise and get up n go might just be the winning factor 2010 TDV8 Bali Blue........ "Alive Tuned"
