Very nice, Almond and a colour again and not just any colour, it’s Aintree Green

No sunroof though

Metropolis name goes back to the D2 we’ve still got our one in the family owned from new came in java black only with a roof mounted sat nav screen and central roof mounted DVD player for 2nd and 3rd row passengers.

Name might seem silly to some but it was full with extra options for the D2. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
MY15 Xenon Headlight Conversion

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

It’s ve got a soft spot for D2’s too. The name suits a Disco even less.

There are a couple of silver Si4's on a 65 plate over at Lode Lane....they also have blue roof-mounted beacons on them and are used by Business Protection of the site.

Did you happen to notice whether or not it was RHD?

ps: I know J4/M40 very well, Cressex, High Wycombe.....or 'vikkum init' as its more commonly known amongst the locals

I have always liked the D2 as well. Like the FL2 it's what a Landrover is all about, a mix of comfort and practicability which I feel is lost now in the model range

A very sad day when mine went, always felt like I could drive it forever.

this is the same interior as my latest FL2, I really like it apart form the door handles which ive now put piano black covers on.

That was the only compromise we were willing to make when we bought our FFRR, it has a similar interior with the light inserts, although we were never 100% happy with it at least it wasn’t “hole of Calcutta” inside......the outside was though (and after saying we’d never buy another black car), oh well we are back to a lovely light interior and a subtle exterior now, much nicer. Regards

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......

Back up to 25. Not only that, but 9 of them are even in full colour

Someone must be out and about scouting for these cars

Much as I really respect the Freelander, I can't see that it can last. With no current equivalent available new from Land Rover...

Looking at the interiors of the Metropolis versions (I actually almost ordered one new sight unseen when first announced) I much prefer the light interior of the HSE, the Metro light seats look like LR ran out of black leather and plonked the last batch of light seats into black interiors, not to my taste.
Nice HSE on the site though, with a proper light interior

Edit : what I didn’t realise is the later models didn’t automatically get HiD headlights with the new design projector headlights, that’s disappointing  Regards

Know exactly how you feel, I had mine for 11 years and loved it
Still miss it and pine for it when I see a tidy example on the road.
