Just goes to show that new car prices are a rip-off. Stornaway grey SE auto with 18" alloys |

Rip Off is a bit strong, expensive yes, what they have is a very good product, which at the moment is going from strength to strength, so let's not knock it, a lot of that profit is being invested, that has to be good for JLR and for the UK.

We are probably paying 」4-5000 over the top for Freelanders. When you compare the rivals they are all much cheaper. Stornaway grey SE auto with 18" alloys |

But are they really rivals? I'd always fancied a Yeti but they used not to have a diesel automatic. Now they do, we went along to Carrs at Indian Queens to have a look. They look good, well built but with questionable paint finish apparently. They're far too small in the back for us - and the sales person on duty totally ignored us!

All the rivals are pretty poor in comparison, the FL2 ain't perfect but it's a damn site better than many and the sales figures, coupled with demand outstripping supply, would suggest the price point is fine. |

True - the FL2 is not perfect, and neither is the dealer network. Much work to be done in both.
