Yep, I think that's basically what he was getting at, although he didn't mention the gearing.
I see your point though.

those spy shots of the black FL2 look absolutely horrid - from some angles it looks like a Freelander 1!!!!!

And is the front reg plate legal?? It appears to be pointing towards the road rather than being level - i am sure PC Plod wouldnt be very happy with that, they would have to start sticking speed cameras in the kerb to read the plates!!

I hope the facelift delivers more than what these spy shots are currently indicating - im up for renewal next April and was hoping for some improvements to keep me with the brand.

I think there is going to be a better deal to be had on the current model, they be wanting to sell them off.

Then just swap things if it's that important, I'm holding off buying a new front grill till the new models come along to be seen. Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Just back from the dealer and here's the latest "scoop" ...
New RRSport Type Grill.
New Optics - more like New RRSport and Disco 4
Extended boot lip
On HSE there is new "Windsor" seating as an alternative to the Premium seat. Different stitching basically
Better plastics on the doors and dash, and darker metallic finish on interior door handles.
Other very slight modifications to the interior
2.2 Diesel Manual unchanged
2.2 Diesel Auto - power goes up to 190 Bhp with 420 Nm of Torque.
Acceleration and Top speed substantially increased on the new auto.
Price here in Portugal will also drop by 2000 Euros on the Auto HSE package due to the reduced carbon emissions from the altered unit.
Launch will be in Moscow.
Order books will open in the first week of July for deliver End September - beginning of October.
That's all for now folk.

Like the sounds of this, wonder if it'll add anymore premium to the Auto price (and VED in UK)

Here is another mockup of how the FL2 front 'could' look, RRS grille and headlamp units and slit under the grille, also altered the bumper slightly

Just tried to order the present XS from Drive The Deal but they are quoting a 20 week waiting time Shocked

Surely LR will have stopped making today's model before then - looks like I'll need to find a demonstrator because I've no doubt there will be quite a price increase on the new model Prospective Freelander 2 owner
