looks rather splendid and a great colour

Yes I also like the colour it's what's known in the trade as a low mileage minter

I disagree ........ poor colour ......each to their own.

At least you don't have to worry about 'residual color loss' as they call it in the US.
This is when a vehicle is purchased new and the second hand value, on Trade-in, is lower due to the colour of the vehicle.

When the 'pool' of Freelanders is so vast, most new owners would look for a conservative colour.

Enjoy your vehicle anyway .......... when being driven, you don't see much of the colour anyway.

I like the colour, Its what I wanted when I was buying, but couldn't find one in the spec I wanted.

I ended up with with a Malicious Blue one. Not my first choice of colour, but by the time I move it on the residuals will have flattened out.

Hey, that’s just like my last FL2! It’s hard to find something from LR that still looks right, even my current RR is a bit marginal.

Your new motor looks very nice indeed

Don’t forget to update your vehicle details for the site.

Super colour that I've had two now and would always look for Firenze Red.

Stands out from the crowd  If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

Like this one .......

It took me about a year to find mine on Autotrader website.

I think it was well worth the wait, this Land Rover model (FL2) will become a classic, as LR move away from it's original styling. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)
FL2 Metropolis SD4 Auto 2014 2017- (16k - 77k+ miles) (MY2015)
Metro in its 11th Year of (Extended) LR Warranty / Full LR Service History
(Expensive, but Trouble/Worry free - hopefully?)

Lovely looking FL2 with nice wheels and in a superb colour

Any mods planned? FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

The OP did say his previous FLs were BLACK ....... and this would be his last LR ???

Excellent colour choice but then i`m biased as its the same as mine! On the odd occasion I wash mine I am always very impressed with how good it looks when it`s shiny and say to myself I must try and keep it looking shiny but that rarely happens!

Best colour out there for a freelander, if I couldn’t get it in red when I bought the car new I probably won’t have bought a freelander as all the other colours are boring. Mine only has 23k on it , when cleaned and polished inside and out it’s a stunning car and colour.
I was after an Epsom green until the salesman showed us a defender in Epsom , boy did it look crap . Do it now ! Your a long time dead !!

That is a beauty and would have been my ideal motor, colour, spec, mileage etc sll perfect
Unfortunately not one available nearby in that colour when I needed to replace my Disco 2 urgently in December.
