United Kingdom 2015 Freelander 2 TD4_e SE Manual Orkney Grey

Heated front screen and Xenon headlights 10/10

Reasons are obvious in Winter and a right pain if you dont have them.

Id rather do away with the sound system if there was a choice of something else instead, really important, oh like a heated steering wheel. Rolling Eyes

United Kingdom 2014 Freelander 2 SD4 XS Auto Loire Blue

If you want to own a Freelander there are only three requirements as far as I am concerned.

1. a decent warranty
2. a decent warranty
3. a decent warranty 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto
Now Discovery Sport P250 MHEV SE

United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Manual Stornoway Grey

1. Leather, heated seats.
2. Sunroof-not to use as a sunroof but the extra light transforms the interior.
3. Premium Pack-colour coded sills and that little spoiler make a big difference to the appearance!

England 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Stornoway Grey

Automatic transmission
Diesel engine
Heated leather seats
Heated windscreen

The best driving aid on the car, one that I'd never had before, is the automatic dipping door mirrors when you're reversing. Couple that with the big, clear mirrors and you get the best car to drive backwards that I've ever had. That's important when towing the caravan or having to reverse on our many single-track Cornish lanes.

I really like this car! Ours - 2008 Stornoway Grey HSE Auto
Tricia's - 2006 Royal Blue Beetle Cabriolet Auto
Mine - 2014 Vespa GTS 300 Super Sport Matt Black
Ours - 2007 White Bailey Pageant Champagne
