Hi All,

As per title the, the Freely has been moved on, but I may still lurk around here for a while - unless I get shot for having a Yeti

Much as I loved the FL, the costs of running and maintenance don't balance well with the small amount of off road use and towing we now do, so a more 'frugal' 4x4 beast for lighter duty is in place .

Next job is to post a few bits for sale...

Nothing wrong with a Yeti even Clarkson raved about it.

Yeh you have stay lurking in the shadows on here, its worth it

now..... what bits do you have for sale ?

I've been lurking since I sold mine in October 2015. Mind you, I bought a proper replacement. An Evoque...…….  Past: FL2 TD4 HSE Auto
Evoque SD4 Dynamic Lux Auto
Present: Audi A3 S Line.

the Evoque - FL2 with a makeover

IMO the Evoque are great cars, but as with FL2 the auto is the way forward. 3 door Evoque look stunning and are reasonably sized but the 3 doors is a great limitation as the front seats don't go forward far enough for useful access to the rear even just to put stuff on the back seats. If you can live with that the Coupe is awesome. The 5 door is just as practical for normal everyday use as the FL2 , if you don't have to load big square items into the boot.

I still lurk , had an Evoque/DS and now in a 2016 D4 and am well impressed with it . FL2 gone now in 2016 Discovery 4 Loire Blue .

Thats the main topic of conversation on the Disco 4 Forum  FL2 gone now in 2016 Discovery 4 Loire Blue .

Camshafts are not to much of a problem but the crankshafts are a different matter that’s why I sold mine!!

I have been lurking for nearly 4 years!!!
Since leaving I have had 2 x disco sports. 1 D5, a Velar
Now run an I pace 

I haven't owned an FL2 since 2013, so 6 years of lurking for me

Since then, I have burned my way through a Fiesta Zetec-S, Fiesta ST, VW Golf, Audi A3 and now I'm on an 18 plate VW Polo DSG. Quite a change in size and several cars I've got through there but SWMBO has come to power now so unless I go cap in hand, the rapid car changing days are over  LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby
LOT (Lord of Time) - University of Gallifrey

As of last week, I've been downgraded to lurker. Not my choice, as had an accident. Will find the time and post about my experience.  2013 SE TD4 in Mauritius Blue [Written off]
