LR have been steadily rising their prices for sometime now as shown by my current vehicle which, whilst not having the off-road credentials of the fl2, is by far a much more superior vehicle and cheaper than the fl2 I was considering. The move to discovery sport would suggest a major price increase which will be out of reach of many fl2 owners. I was hoping that in three years time I would be considering the next fl2 replacement to replace my x3 - maybe I won't be in a financial position to do so.

Land rover have always pushed their prices upwards and then slotted a new product into the resultant gap. The new defender range will probably slot into the price point the freelander currently sits in. |

Nor does the Honda CRV - I wouldn't be able to live with one of these cars for more than a few months no matter how reliable and economical they may be. I just hope that there is a Discovery model in my price range when it arrives. GONE - '07 TD4 GS manual Zermatt Silver LONG GONE - '55 Norton Dominator 99 SS cafe racer |

I would love a new Freelander or Disco 4, but the facts are that they are too expensive for me to justify. I love the brand, and would stay if I could, but my Freelander has been too unreliable and having let me down badly on a recent family holiday it has to go before the warranty expires in September.

The Nissan looks a nice car, I know a fella who is the local Nissan dealership manager, I might go and have a look at one when they come out.

X-Trail has a 1350Kg tow limit on the auto, so if you tow think again. Unless they change the box, haven't done for at least 10 years. There are many other cars with a restriction of lower tow weight limit with the auto box. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
