Well I have clocked up 9200 miles in my first year of ownership and I thought that was low-average! This is within my agreed annual mileage under the GMFV finance plan.

On that basis your car is pretty low mileage for the age. LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

38 months = 15k miles, but we do use the Disco a lot more, well 24 months = 24k miles.

got just over 50k on 3 and half yr FL, 10k of which I have put on in the last 6months..

12k is considered average - although i've rarely ever done less than 20k per annum, some yrs I can hit 40k.

anthing less than 36k for your car will be considered low mileage. 18k is really low mileage Thumbs Up Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints

I think the fuel for one year was around £9000! My current freelander2 has just rolled over to 67000, it had 40000 on around 15 months ago! So doing alot less now! But the average miles per year is now 15000

I think the simple answer is it dependes upon who owns it and the type of driving they do.

As long is it's looked after, serviced and well maintained there shouldn't be a problem.

ten to twelve k a year is pretty average, so yours sells as low mileage. Remember though when buying that there is a huge difference between miles on the motorway, miles in town and miles off road - in a Landy condition is generally more important than mileage.

My first Freelander did 14000 a year for three years, then the lease company dumped it in a field for two years and sold it on, eventually, as low mileage!

Yes mileage does not matter on a well loved land rover. My first defender was an 1988 F reg, 289000 on the clock sold it for £5500! It was mint tho!

LR actually base 15000 miles a year as an average. Hence the 15000 mile service intervals.

Mine is 4 years and 4 months old and has 43000 miles on it now. When I was last in looking at other cars, they said mine was low mileage as they expect a 4 year old car to have near on 60k miles. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather.
