Hi, I'm looking for some nice pictures of the FL2 in Tonga green color. Never seen such pictures. Not in brochures nor in the internet pictures. Nobody likes this color? I guess I do....

Rob
Netherlands VW Tiguan or Freelander 2 that's the question...

Dear Icarus,

I ordered my FLR TD4 Auto in Tonga Green...
I think it is a great colour. Specially as we are inhunting and picker up with our dogs...
I have seen several Range Rovers in the same colour and it looks sophisticated
I have only found 1 picture on the net.
I'll have a look for it. When/if I find it I will post it to you.

Greetings from here

Icarus - Look in the gallery under 'wombat'

I have posted 'dirty' and 'clean' pictures of my Tonga Green FL2.

I think it's a good colour as it doesn't look too bad when dirty and looks very good when it has been washed.

Wombat,

Thanks for the pictures! Now I can see at last how my FL2 will look in Tonga...

Dear Wombat,

Thanks for the nice pictures. Whenever I decide for the FL2 it will be same as your car... Except mirrored (I will have LH steering And except for the lighting protection. But it will be having 17" wheels like yours, 5-split spoke, and including the Continental tires 235/65. 65 (152.75 mm high) tires must be more comfortable than 60% of 235 mm (=141 mm high). This "feature" allows for 8% extra air to dampen-out bumpy roads. Furthermore 235/60 replacements are much more expensive than 235/65.

What's the brand of your towbar? It looks quite professional. This protection plate is what I am missing on my current car.

Icarus, you will enjoy the FL2. Good choice of colour as well!

The towing kit was fitted by Landrover,, I then removed the standard tow ball and spacer and replaced it with the following:

Witter Z47A Bumper Shield

Sparex deluxe heavy duty ball and pin hitch


The spacer wasn't needed anymore due the Sparex mounting being thicker and the addition of the Witter plate.

Icarus Toga is a great colour for the F2, but be careful with the colour you select for the interior. Looks great with Alpacca leather or the Alpacca/Tundra mix cloth How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?
Now driving - RRE Coupe Dynamic Lux Auto with Plus pack, Fuji White, Ebony, SD4 with tow pack
Gone - 2010MY FFRR TDv8 Stornoway and Ivory, Privacy - the pace of a TDv8 RRS, the incomparable grace of a Range Rover
Gone but will be missed- RRS Tdv8 HSE Stornoway Grey with Ebony Leather
Gone (only a little missed) RRS Tdv6 2.7SE Giverny Green/Aspen
Defender 90 County HT in Epsom Green
