After a rapid decline in the state of my left side joints (shoulder, hip and knee) requiring surgery ive had to revert back to an automatic and say a very tearful goodbye my Evoque Coupe.
I would have loved an Evoque automatic but the prices are still too strong for me so the only choice was yet another FL2.

2012 '62 Sport LE but appears to have Dynamic seats and wheels. Barolo black. The difference in ride comfort on 19's against the Evoque on 19's is very different, much smoother.

Very nice......Mrs BB has vowed we will never have another black vehicle, and as we both like light interiors you can have that one

I bet you cannot wait.....  Regards

David

Lovely i6 has now gone, but not me......

Please let me know if anything in my post offends you, as I may wish to offend you again......

You know it makes sense
Nice very nice apart from it being black, only thing I don't like about mine. Common sense isn't very common.

Verry, verry nice car! Welcome back 'per aspera ad astra'

Thanks all, yes it's a nice motor. Just fancied a sport/dynamic but decent mileage dynamics are a bit rich still.
But to say that LR Chesterfield had a red 61 plate Sport on the forecourt 2 years ago for 14500 they are really holding value well.

Choices of sport were only red black or white. The white ones all had a skunk stripe on the seats, the red ones a red stripe and black.... well they came with a black stripe. But there are only a handful I've seen out there with the ivory centre panel and ivory dash trim( although I'm not that into the dash bits)

yes nice looking car, my Volvo is black and does take a bit more care than what my Lago Grey FL2 did.

but very nice when clean

Although you've never really been away ...... welcome back ...properly.

FL2 looks superb, enjoy.  FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

RogB, whilst you were away RonP stooge in for you.


The forum has 2 of the 500 now ..... or have I miscounted ?

https://media.landrover.com/news/2010/12/l...ed-edition

.

Apparently only the 500 in UK with the stick on bits round the bumpers

But I genuinely haven't seen more than a couple with this interior. The ivory door handles and dash trim weren't standard sport trim IIRC. They are definitely an acquired taste

Lovely looking example , but then I am biased . Best colour Barolo too with the nice metallic fleck , it can look a deep reddish/purple colour in certain light conditions . Mine will be getting a long overdue machine polish soon .

Mark 2009 FL2 TD4 SE (Sadly gone)
2007 FL2 TD4 GS (The wifes , gone after 8 great years)
2012 FL2 SD4 SPORT LE(Gone and missing it)
2015 DISCOVERY SPORT 2.2SD4 HSE (Now gone)
2014 Ford Bmax 1.0 ecoboost ( Gone but what next )
2014 Ford Focus 2.0tdci Zetec S (Gone,but what a car)
2020 Ford Fiesta ActiveX 1.0 Ecoboost
2024 Skoda Kodiaq 1.5 Tsi SEL

My FL2 is Biscay Blue, it has the metal fleck and, as yours can look purple in sun light ..... I hate the colour.

When I was sailing on 'Grey Funnel Lines' most of the sailors were sick whilst passing the Bay of Biscay ....... reminds me of that colour.

To lose the colour and the fleck, I haven't cleaned my vehicle for two years ..... yes two years !!

Land rovers should either be sparkling clean or covered in ....there is no inbetween

Very nice Rog welcome back

The limited run 500 made Sport LE’s were only available in Santorini Black, Firenze Red and Fuji White. There was not any Barolo Blacks available.

There was another Sport Freelander made not sure how many to be precise but they did not had a body styling pack fitted. So not sure what was sporty about them. Yours may well be a Freelander Sport with a body styling pack fitted. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
MY15 Xenon Headlight Conversion

MY17 RRS SVR - Estoril Blue Cirrus/Ebony 🪣💺’s

It's definitely the later Sport Ed. Made Only a couple of months before it changed to Dynamic with 2013 facelift.

I got the topix details for it to confirm which also confirmed its Barolo black sport LE with the ivory dash and later style seats fitted from factory spec so I'm wondering if it's just a standard Sport LE that they chucked stuff on out the parts bin as the last of the lone pre facelift.
