Hello everyone,

thought I would say hello - I picked up an 07 plate Baltc Blue Freelander 2 XS at the weekend.

I traded in my less than 12 months old Focus ST3 for reasons of practicality and sensibility. But I'm loving the Freelander so far - liked it from the first drive in one that I had a few weeks ago.

ST3 to FL2 = LOW MPG

Welcome to the forum

Thanks for the welcome npinks.

I am hoping for improved MPG over the Focus, but that wasn't really a reason for buying the FL. I was mainly after more space and a different driving experience.

Any improvement MPG-wise is a bonus.

A friends ST3 was very low MGP, and when he went to a Disco3 after having twins, to go along with their first 1 year old child, the MPG was a little low to begin with due to the ST3 fun foot been a little heavy. Settled down now to a normal D3 MPG,

I'll expect you'll have similar findings Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Hi all !! Just bought a 10 month old TD4 SE auto in Izmir blue with 4,500 on the clock, ex Land Rover fleet, Superb vehicle, especially with a price more than £10,000 off list. I'd always wanted a FL2 since they came out and had already driven one at LRE Peckforton, Chester.However they were just a bit too pricey new for me especially if you wanted the top trim levels. Definitely more up market than my first two FL's a 1.8Xei (V reg) and a TD4 ES auto (02 reg) Went silly after those two and then had a Peugeot 307CC 180 and a Mk5 Golf Gti DSG.

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to say hi...

I've recently become a proud owner of a beautiful FL2 (Sumatra Black with Alpaca Leather)... which I absolutely love!!

My fiance decided to suprise me and got it for me for Xmas!! Some of you who use RRS forum might know him 'Adam RRS'

Since I've had the car, I've had the windows tinted, clear side repeaters added and put on my private plate..

I want to get the side steps and change the green land rover badges for the smart black ones..

Here's some pics from the dealers website.. I'll get some recent pics uploaded soon.

Hi folks. Picking up an '08 XS in Zermatt Silver on Sunday - can't wait. Wanted an SE but there aren't too many around up here just now.

Reason for buying? The main roads in this neck of the woods are like goat tracks and they aren't going to get any better so this will fit the deal perfectly. Also, we nearly ripped the @rse off the old car going up a friend's farm track recently so we need the ground clearance and in any case I don't think any of the other machines in this class look anything like as good as the FL2.

Also, for those yahoooo! days I've got a Triumph Tiger 1050 which is just the dug's b@ws, so I think they'll complement each other pretty well.

Welcome Bluemacs
and x Gem x

Cheers for the welcome RH.

I see you're in just about the only place in the world with worse weather than the west coast of Scotland!

I'd been watching Freel2 for three or four weeks checking on what people were saying about the car and in the end it helped me decide in its favour, and I can say that I'm much more excited about getting this car than any other in the past. Also, my lad is 6' 5'' and found our last car a bit tight so I think he'll notice the difference.

Cheers,
