2014 Freelander 2 SD4 Dynamic Auto Fuji White
Newbie, very happy with our MY2014 Dynamic SD4

Just joined this forum having purchased a 6 month old Dynamic SD4 for the wife. We mostly buy cars nearly new to reduce the initial hit.

First Land Rover we've owned and as we bought without test driving a FL2 (as my good lady had made her mind up) I'm pleased to say it lives to expectation and is a great little car.

We live in a rural area so not sure if the factory fitted Conti CrossContact UHP will be good enough if we get snow this winter. Otherwise next stop will be some winter tyres or may switch wheels completely from 19 to 18" for 5 months a year.....

Looking forward to plenty of advise over the months.

Also have a VW California (camper) in the garage so you may see me pop up in the camping section occasionally too!

Simon

Looks good Thumbs Up
With regard to the Conti's, watch the wear on the shoulders on the fronts, as for winter, I wasn't impressed with them.

Looks a nice motor ... I've the same in grey ... Did you go for the auto ? Now it's been mentioned my tyres are looking worn on the shoulders on only the front tyres and mine car is only 18 months old ... Anybody know why continentals wear on the shoulders ??? Is it too low or high pressure or just crap ??? I had wranglers on my old XS and they were fine for years ... 2007 freelander 2 XS td4 Stornaway Grey .... GONE

Thanks. I liked the Orkney but as my Beemer is grey we had to go for something different ! Yes it's auto and whilst not quite as smooth as the 8-sp auto fitted in mine very happy with it so far.

All SD4's are auto for the FL2. The Evoque however gets a SD4 manual and the DS will have the same option! I really wonder why they didn't bring out this option for the FL2? Clearly even JLR recognise that there is still a high demand for stick shift! MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
