United Kingdom 2009 Freelander 2 TD4_e S Manual Zermatt Silver

I've had the chance to have a look at the 2013MY and was pleasantly surprised. Without giving too much away (including my job) it does look better on the dash. On the outside its only the lights (incl fogs) that were different.
It's a really early build so chances are there will be more changes ...

I did a Halewood Factory tour a week or so ago & there were about 7 Freelander body shells all parked in a line with 13MY on them. The guide even commented that it was unusual to have so many shells sat in the place where these were. (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.

(Past) RR Evouque Pure Tech in Barollo Black with bespoke Firenze Red colour coding.

Someone told me Yes but not in the UK though I forgot who & when that was lol. I recconed last year when the Si4 Evoque was launched that the 2012 FL2 would be available in Si4 but I was wrong on that one. (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.

I know Si4 is going to the states and OZ, but I am sure it is coming here too. My personal opinion, is that as a result of the sales of Si4 Evoques, they will put it in Freelander.

Many SUV owners don't want diesel and have many petrol options in the form of XC60, Q5, X5 etc. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

Hey! I saw Si4 FL2 a week ago at dealers parking here in Poland, so it is already beeing delivered.
And here is the polish catalogue that incudes the si4:

They are still there in the Bodyshop but I have noticed separate boxes all up and down the Trim & Final lines with MY 2013 on them so I think they're awaiting a few more parts and they'll go for it ...

United Kingdom 2010 Freelander 2 TD4 XS Auto Santorini Black

Given that LR have used ford engines in the Freelander I wonder if we will see the new Ford 1 litre3 cylinder turbo in the FL3, although to give it any credibility it would need one on each wheel.
Seriously though I didn't think they could get the existing 6 speed Aisan Warner box to work with stop/start., however I did read somewhere that ZF were developing a auto box for front wheel drive vehicles, I wonder if the FL3 will have a new auto box as well.
With regards to the Dash my major gripe is the build quality, the creaks and cracks I get when driving over bumps leads me to conclude it has been built out of lego bricks. However, I didn't realise updating it was such a major job involving the whole vehicle control system.

the Polish catalogue has an error it lists the SI4 as 3192 cm3 but further up the same page it lists it as 1999cm3

It seems you should be called Eagle Eyed George Wink
Polish LR site is full of misleading information regarding si4 and i6

Spoken of the creaks from the dashboard. Mine stopped creaking after I've installed the wood fascia kit.

Was sat in the office waiting for a return phone call, ring you back in 5 minutes sort of a thing, why do they never ring back after saying that? At work
