Well it's been exactly 2 years I made the decision to not order a new DS and grab one of the last Freelander 2's.
It's been 2 years of absolutely trouble free motoring......not one problem....nothing...nadda...nil!
Hopefully LR sort it out...... Whistle MY15

Phark....how many problems does this bring the count to now for the DS
Thank god I didn't but one.


Unfortunately I did and stopped counting at 12 issues then I sold it Wink

4000 trouble free miles now in the phev and the last 7 years/3 LR lemons are fading from memory - I still look with envy when I see green oval but then I think of the dealers and the trips to sort things and it passes Rolling Eyes


Well I'm relieved and happy to say that my MY15 Freelander 2 has been absolutely fault free. Just had second service and only things was oil, filter and o ring for drain plug.
I couldn't be happier with this car! MY15

It's ironic when I was buying FL1s/2s and D2s everyone told me they were rubbish but I had no problems - then prices of LRs shot up and they became popular and I had nothing but bother Confused

Imho it's LR adding technology to justify price increases that caused my problems - I'm after a series 2 LR but steering clear of any new models until they can build them properly Rolling Eyes

Mitsubishi have managed to build the phev with new technology for a fraction of the price and it all works - I've had to eat humble pie Embarassed Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

I can't fault LR, I'm soon to take delivery of my 9th, only had a problem with my first D3, a few minor niggles with others but nothing worth commenting on.

I've been up to Volvo looking at the XC90 but getting back in my LR felt right. Can't see me changing anytime soon. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

I've had a few problems with the car, rear door paint rubbed off the bottom edge. Front passenger door is a touch out of alignment. Plus a few other things.

On my previous new car, a Seat, it was the top edge of the rear door that paint rubbed off & the drivers door was out of alignment & a few other things. Also a car recall for seat belt connection to the body! Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

When on the m4 near reading last week I saw a Ds on the hard shoulder with bonnet airbag deployed but no damage. Driver looker really puzzled. Was it any one on here?. Anyone aware of faulty bonnet airbags.
