Scotland 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 GS Auto Fuji White

No spare wheel was the reason I did not buy Toyota Rav 2006 model having had good service from previous Rav's. As I am often 200+ miles from home at weekends and off road so a spare is essential.
Not long after buying my FL2 GS Auto I was fortunate to buy 4 SE wheels Conti tyres with only 2k miles on ebay. Carried one in spare then at 22k miles fitted all 4 with best GS alloy now spare.

Toyota got it really wrong with T180 model in 2006, run flat tyres were sent to Belgium for repair, you had only to drive 50 miles on flat then get an exchange wheel from nearest dealer, later dealers had to buy a special wheel/tyre machine at £20,000 yes 20k. Puncture repairs in excess of £120.00 plus new cushion band a at another £100 if damaged. New tyres around £250 fitted. By By to buying a new T180. All FL2's (3) Gone
2011 Mercedes C180 CGI Gone
FL2 GS Auto SD with heated leather, factory tints, alloy spare and a few other bits.
