United Kingdom 2014 Freelander 2 TD4_e GS Manual Orkney Grey

I picked it up yesterday afternoon from over the hills in Yorkshire and had a pleasant drive back in various weather conditions including snow .
1st impressions were good , improved visibility over the Evoque and I felt it was a much better driving position and perhaps a little quieter with the new 2.0 engine , missus went out in it last night for the 1st time , around trip of 40mls (40mpg).
She said she prefers it to the Evoque and her and 2 friends sports bags fitted easily in the boot .
Early days but looking good with that extra space that we missed after the FL2 . FL2 gone now in 2016 Discovery 4 Loire Blue .

10.2" screen will be to keep up with the F-Pace. Nice too see LR making worthwhile improvements. Judging by the rumours of the price hike on the D5 I may end up back in a DS at some point as the Evoque is a bit small for my needs. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

United Kingdom 2015 Freelander 2 SD4 SE Auto Orkney Grey

Had a new Disco4 HSE for an afternoon at Eastnor Castle experience. Superb car that didn't feel as big as it looks. Slight niggle that would frustrate me is the size and position of the hi/low range buttons along with the hdc and suspension levels buttons. Not very intuitive.Almost too much information available. Notwithstanding I could easily live with the perceived shortcomings. Thumbs Up

Certainly on my wish list but not in white Whistle MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.

Down under 50% of cars are white. Around my area there are a stack of Discoveries, I feel like the poor cousin! Most are white. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Yes it is Smile, if it had better economy, then I would own one - it was close between a D4 and a DS

Still love my DS, though waiting with baited breath for new Discovery....

I've managed 33mpg on a long run driving like a granny. Usually get about mid 20s.

I ain't holding my breath for getting into a D5, my salesman said he will do me a good deal but I'll see. The new road tax system puts me off also, £140 a year + £310 because it's over £40k, yet will no doubt be greener than the current car.

I will admit I do like the DS Dynamic, it suits the cars character. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

yes, the Dynamic looks interesting, though no you can spec Magneride etc as an option, so may be tempted to upgrade my DS when my17 is out.

What sort of discounts are buyers achieving on the DS at the moment?
