Just a hello from a potential buyer. Always liked these and now retired so next car will be for choice not need, seriously looking around mid Wales .

Welcome, this is a very unusual forum group in that everyone is so helpful and there's a wealth of experience through ownership and none of the usual negativity you normally see in this type of group. The Freelander 2 is a great car, probably because it's mostly Ford & Volvo I think its true to say it's the most reliable Landrover you can buy. It certainly ticks all the boxes for me, It tows well, comfortable, reasonably good on fuel and a pleasure to drive. For me, there is only one minor issue and that's the limited boot space. Good luck with your search  2007 TD4 XS The work horse that earns its up keep
2013 SD4 HSE The posh one for towing the caravan
1973 Triumph Stag I bought in 2009 and restored.

I agree with milthedog, the FL2 Forum is great, and I believe that the FL2 is fast becoming a Classic.

Well Done Ford (and the team that designed the Shape and the Software)

PS I bought an SD4 in 2012 because my wife liked the elevated view and the colour.

Coming from years of driving reasonably quick hatchbacks and estates, I was unsure, but I have grown to love the FL2s fantastic driving position and experience.

This earlier thread gives an indication of what cars we owned prior to the FL2.

If the Freelander had a biscuit instead of a full size spare wheel then there would be more room. But I would rather the full size spare, actually over size 255/60R18. 30kg a piece! Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!
