Some of you may have seen my other post http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic19212.html regarding excessive corrosion to a new (to me) 2010 Freelander which I bought from a dealer in January.

If you use satnav all the time the built in one the XS has is worth a look, but is the spec worth the older plate

I was looking for a recent GS to replace the old one, but got a HSE at a very good price instead. Tbh I can't see any advantage in the toys I have now - heated steering wheel is nice I suppose for the morning station run but seriously...?

Check the service history of all the cars.See if they have had any work done,the dealer can give you a print out. Punch the vin number and an old MOT cert into the gov web site and it will give you the MOT history and all advisories.

Someone above may already have said this but your own future mileage should inform your choice. i.e. if you do loads get the low mileage car and if you only do 5 - 8K per year say then the higher mileage car is not so much of a concern. FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green

XS, for me front PDC are equally as important as ones at the rear.

Black GS for with out a 2nd thought, Might be a bit lower spec but less miles are worth a lot more than a few toys that chances are you wont bother with after the first month or so.
