2011 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Sumatra Black

We ordered 5th Aug and the dealer told us yesterday it is slated for delivery around 20 Oct. I have rung every week for updates. He probably thinks I am a pain in the a**** but he has the deposit and we are paying cash with no p/x. Too many dealers have the attitude that they are doing you a favour and you should be beholden to them. Andy

2011 Freelander 2 TD4 XS Manual Baltic Blue

I assume you'll be getting an MY12 if it's an October delivery. Interestingly details of MY12 Freelanders are still pretty scarce while details of MY12 RR, RRSport and Discovery 4 are widely available.

Use a photogapher's grey card to set the exposure same as you do when you photograph a black cat in a coal cellar.

I was starting to think that as there is no information on MY12 yet and i'd expect to see something at least a month before it went on sale.

That's a lot of old cars in that list! Have you been driving classic cars, or have you just been driving for years and hung on to each car for ages?

Cannot remember but it was one of the best cars I owned ,it had the perkins turbo diesel on it and could leave everything standing at the lights. Unfortunately it was stolen after I had made the last payment on it. Then went on to Disco's

I had Montego estates for years! 103,000 miles in the first one and 70,000 miles in the second. Hugely underrated cars, but you have to consider that exhausts, wheel bearings and shock absorbers are regular consumable items, until the rust gets hold and then it's all over!

I came across a very late diesel estate at the petrol station only yesterday...
