Mini 1000 (black, loved it, but it was falling apart, and rusty, I know, a rusty mini, imagine that |

was a short termer before the FL came out. Great 2.2 diesel and soft top fun - couldn't break it! Shame about the ride on road.
many problems both from the Factory and after. Still fun to drive and great economy. Hated the Auto box (only choice here).

No prob. - just pass on the pineapple that was mentioned in an earlier thread to the old nick in question  .
http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic2272.html Still, if you don’t own - just see how far they will get with a prosecution 
Sounds like a real pain though - hope it sorts itself out  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
Stornoway Grey with Ebony Black Pleather, Clear Indicators, Body Side Mouldings etc. |

Just pop a photocopy in when you send back the form. I got snapped driving the FL in Hull. 50 in a 40, 100 yds before it changes to 70 on a corner the fl would cruise round at 80 so why the hell its a 40 I have no idea - but anyway - They send the Mrs a form asking who is driving. I fill it in and send it back, they return it saying they can't accept it. They then send me another form asking if I was the driver. I send it back saying "Yes" but am not allowed to send my docs with it. I then get a notice of intended prosecution asking for my docs. All this took 3 months and cost a fortune in postage and admin. Given that in 99% of cases the owner either was the driver or is sitting next to them at breakfast, why the hell they don't just have a "Who was the driver" and an "I was the driver" form in the envelope I have no idea. 07 Freelander 2 TD4SE Tambora Flame, side steps, privacy glass, mud flaps, boot liner and a tow bar. Ok it's the Wifes but she lets me drive it occasionally - if I've been good! |

I had 1st FL from 1999 to 2004 then 2nd facelift FL from 2004 to now. Getting my new FL 2 next month. Am I crazy? |

No! Although in Singapore I think you probably got the worst model of the lot - the 2.5V6Auto How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet? Now driving - RRE Coupe Dynamic Lux Auto with Plus pack, Fuji White, Ebony, SD4 with tow pack Gone - 2010MY FFRR TDv8 Stornoway and Ivory, Privacy - the pace of a TDv8 RRS, the incomparable grace of a Range Rover Gone but will be missed- RRS Tdv8 HSE Stornoway Grey with Ebony Leather Gone (only a little missed) RRS Tdv6 2.7SE Giverny Green/Aspen Defender 90 County HT in Epsom Green |
