Starting to actively search for a TD4 in SEQ and I see a few without towbar and roof rails or bars which are desired features for me. So, what would I expect to pay for a reasonable tow bar fitted and what brands/suppliers do you think?
Also, what is the roof cargo system on these vehicles? Do I have to get rails and then fit crossbars? I want to carry kayaks and occasional roof basket. Again what brands and approx. pricing would one expect?
Many thanks in advance for any clues.

Hi Steve

I fitted a Wiitter towbar. It was quite easy to install and Ive transferred it to each new Freelander2 that Ive owned. But the OEM electrics can be awkward. JLR produced 3 different towing wiring looms during the production of the FL2. The early one was the most fiddly and required coding at the Dealers whilst that last one (for my 2014 model) was a cinch and totally plug-n-play.

Hopefully someone more local can answer your questions in detail.

As it happens SWMBO and I are visiting our daughter in Brisbane in April. I'll keep an eye out for any FL2s.  Jules

When I got my FL2 from my nephew in 2023 it didnt have a towbar. I sourced one from TRSpares in Adelaide.Cant remember the cost. Just make sure you specify that its for a 2014 model so you get the plug and play electrics for it. They may have some roof racks as well.
cheers

Set of aftermarket oem style roof rails are easily added.
