Back up to nine again and this rather nice one’s just come in; the price is under £19,000 too.

Sadly, the 2 year Approved warranty will be going down to 1 year on all Approved cars from the end of August

Is that correct that none of the Metropolis models came with light colour door cards if light seats were optioned?

Never seen any with a complete light interior.... Regards

Please let me know if anything in my post offends you, as I may wish to offend you again......

If it’s Almond, you get Almond door cards and carpet, if it’s Ivory, it’s just the seats that are light.

I like the Ivory / black / blue combination

That’s interesting, never seen one in Almond then.......shame......don’t like black interiors. Regards

Agreed

My first five LR's were Almond inside, with the Fatty being Ivory throughout

Just looked on LR approved used and NO FL2s ! It's all over folks. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto

Still showing eleven when I checked just now!

Looking at the first one on the list a GS manual 150bhp it shows NEDC - Combined *45.6 mpg NEDC - Extra Urban *50.4 mpg NEDC - Urban *38.2 mpg I wish I could get those figures even with my "vicar's" right foot

Amazing to see the prices are holding up high as well. 2014 Freelander 2 XS TD4

Steering rack, haldex, wheel rim lining and trims, passenger door module,rear tail gate harness, so got some back

yes, it’s a cost of sale. But which of any of the manufacturers doesn’t allocate some of the selling price of the used vehicle to pay for the warranty once the original manufacturer’s warranty has expired?

Would have been nice if you hadn’t needed to though Jules....  Regards

Not really speaking about other manufacturers though was I? Just saying it could be made clearer at POS

Would have been really nice brownie but then again would it have been a Freelander if nothing went wrong?

I think LR used to put about 2-2.5k on the actual price of the car to cover the approved scheme side of things.

At one time that used to be worth something but since they farmed warranties out to a 3rd party who argue everything is it really worth the approved title ? and not all dealers actually do the 165 point check properly etc

Cant see me ever buying another used car direct from LR, as you can buy them cheaper elsewhere and get warranties just as good as LR for a lot less money.

I must say that having a had five FL2 in the family and quite a few problems I have never had any issues with the approved used warranties. I bought my current SD4 XS in March 2017 and apart from a door lock problem which was fixed without question I have had no issues. I am currently paying £79.20/month for extended warranty + LR Assist for my third year of ownership of this vehicle which sounds a lot but I spend more than that in the local cafe on coffee!

My son had a VW Toureg and the warranty cost was similar to the LR but he had to pay the first £250 of any claim and pay up front for diagnostic work in case VW refused to pay. Never had this with LR. 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
