Hi people, I'm thinking of buying a FL2 HST on prob 07-08 plate with around 50-75k on clock. The reason I'm going for a HST is I want all the bag of mashing's because I'm moving from a audi s3 so I'm used to hot hatches with leathers and all the bell an whistles. Now my question is really about the FL2's reliability and what I should look out for when buying, it won't be going off road as I save this for my Suzuki well did until I broke it. Any help is much appreciated, many thanks.

Oh and reason for changing is we really now need something that can carry me missus an kids plus what ever we take with us if we go anywhere.

At the risk of upsetting any HST owners, the HST ia as near as dammit, an XS with extra plastic body panels and 19" Shadow Chromes bringing it on par with the price of the HSE.

As for what to look out for, it's bee done to death, hit the search button for "buying" lots to read.

Ok thanks, I have thought about hse's with HST spec. I'll use the search or I might just buy a RRS, God knows I hate choosing vehicles

HSE will be better spec. Get an HSE & fit the body kit or if the whole kit is too dear just the front & rear bumper extensions as the side sill parts don't do a great deal in the terms of adding sportier looks to be fair. (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.
