Had mine since July 2012 and covered 14,000 miles. Best car I have ever owned, never bad any major problems and it still makes me smile when I drive it. Next car will certainly be another FL2 or RRS.

My 2000th post already?!

We are on our 2nd - love the car... Esp. The auto version which has a completely different character to the manual. (Coming) 2016 RR Evoque td4 180 HSE Dynamc
(Going) 2013 TD4 GS Auto - Santorini Black with black leather. Cold Climate, UK Lighting & Armrest Packs. Privacy Glass. LR Rubber Mats. Full size spare.
60 000 miles averaging 35mpg

(Gone) 2010 TD4 Manual GS - Stornoway Grey. Sold at 3yrs old & 64k miles. Final average consumption 39.2mpg.

My 1200 miles since April looks pitifully - looks like i need to get out more
the misses will soon sort that out has the evoque is going today couldn't see the point in keeping hold of it.. I drive my van all day at work so my freely is just sitting at home..so we may as well have the one car and Emma can use it to drive to and from work... And yes i will be checking it every night when i get home  BETTER looking half of the famous Twinlanders

Now you have the extra cash, you could spend it on modding the freely, or even better.....just buy a new one.

Ill most likely wait for the new model Chris if I bought another freely,,, the only thing I have left for the full facelift on mine is the rear lights... Can I be bothered to spend all that money just to have a extra clear leans ,,, don't think I can

Might invest in rear entertainment DVD system  BETTER looking half of the famous Twinlanders

I will also be happy to chime in here.

I drive a 2010, its been to Norway twice (from sweden) up europes highest road, through forest, across military fields and outdriven novice defender drivers witnessed by the whole swedish landrover club - pretty much done everything I asked of my defender before it. However in more comfort, and with less oil on the driveway.

Never had a problem other than water ingress around the high level brake light on the boot with a pressure washer, and once in deep snow my wheel sensors had a momentary WTF issue..

trying to make a long story short ...
I had been a stalwart of Audi / WV until 2003 when I bought a Freelander KV6 MY01 to tray... since then: five Freelander 1, my second Freelander 2, Discovery 2, RR Sport, Defender and my beloved Discovery 3 G4 CHALLENGE Passionate about Land Rover, very happy with my Freelander 2 (LR2) SI4 2013.  Yuri

2008 XS did almost 100k miles up to jan 2103. Yes I had a clutch and DMF, also a diff nose bearing but apart from that it never missed a beat and supported my consultancy business and home life perfectly. Newbie 2013MY in Jan is about to have first service (16,000) and apart from needing an intermittent instrument panel tizz sorting and wheel balance query, it's all perfect. I did an interim oil change at 9,000 (every 7,500 in the previous one) and do frequent levels and prefer checks. We go off-road with mountain bike events and orienteering as well as visiting daughter in law's parents farm.
