I note that some Freelander's seem to have a different dash/radio to others. Is it the SE that has less buttons and the HSE that seems to have a more involved radio/CD dash?

This is true.... why?

No idea, i assume HSE has a better stereo with the 9 speakers?

Got a picture of the two?

No pics Dorko. But if you look up car sales sites like Drive.Com.au, it is fairly plain to see the difference? I just wondered if it was a model difference?

Thanks,

Hmmm, you are not wrong. Its completly different. I wonder what buttons i have that a SE doesnt.

Can anyone comment?

The fancier radio has telephone buttons and the option of a CD changer. Fitted to XS spec and above in the UK. SE and HSE's in the UK get the changer as standard At work

In Oz. the SE has the bog standard Audio with few buttons, then the HSE has more buttons 9 speaker Apline unit but you need the Technology pack to get the sub speaker and then you also get Bluetooth. But Bluetooth is not standard on the HSE or SE regardless of no. of buttons! ______________________________

Spoke with the car dealer and there is a difference between the radios used in the SE and the HSE. The HSE get a higher specced radio due to the 9 speaker stereo system.

Yep, i can confirm no Bluetooth unless you buy the Technology pack....

In South Africa the HSE is fitted with the high spec radio but the Bluetooth is a optional extra. The phone button on the radio do not work untill this extra mudule is installed.

i presume you would be able to add the bluetooth mod yourself i have read it is possible on the disco3  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I think it is posible as the wiring is all in place. Will need the module and plug it into the box next to the spare wheel. I do not know if an software update must then be done. It is available and Land Rover will fit it at a prise.

HSE in the UK has the Alpine Dolby II Pro-Logic system with 13 speakers and a sub box in the boot floor. Do you guys get this on HSE? Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........
