2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Auto Galway Green

Just paid £249 inc. on Thursday, priced matched from another dealer. Shop around, I rang a number of dealers, they all said they would match other prices, so I played them against each other.
Try Farnells in Bradford, Speak to Martin Stead, service manager there, really helpful, offered to do service at above price, but not worth it for me to drive 240 mile round trip, but then used his price at local dealer and they matched it. Good luck.

£75 for 15,000 service a couple of weeks ago by a mechanic friend of mine. All done as per Landrover Service sheet with landrover parts. No book stamp but this has never made any difference to trade in price in the past. Very Happy

Depends on how you use it. Do you cruise up to cars hoping they will move over and then have to brake to turn off cruise
