Been to look at a Freelander 2 today. 56 reg SE spec with sat nav and premium sound system, just been MOT'd. seller says he will put on two new rear tyres and service it which need doing. 70,000 miles 1 owner
£14,300

What does everyone reckon?

The milage is a bit high but the spec is very appealing to me, as the GS sound system just doesn't cut it, so would have to spend money changing that if I dropped spec for milage.
Is the milage likely to cause me any problems?

Thanks

Seems okay, I'd try to at least round it down. You get a lot of car for the dosh, but you accept the mileage, age and obviously if things go wrong, it's coming out of your pocket.

Make sure you buy the L/R warranty before it's too late

Too expensive by far

my old one ('56 FL2 SE) sold for a similar price with 35k on the clock and with 1 years LR Approved used warranty with it serviced and MOT'ed Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

probably was at the time prices were seriously depressed...its picked up since then. I think its fair considering the interstellar mileage, about 45% of list, 3.5 years old... Phil

Just checked what it sold for Jan 2010 was £15500, sorry about that but still £1000 more for half the mileage, but it was for sale in London were they prefer autos Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

well judging by prices at the min I'd say whoever bought it got a very good deal!

Huh doubt it, Pinkys ex was a dog I mean his car by the way.

I'm waiting for the day that the poor sucker that paid £15500 for it joins this site and realise's what he's done

I'm dreading that day

The fact is though, the car was in great condition, just had a long warranty list to go through with me been over piccy

they got a great car, that had it faults but I fun in it Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

That's why he was selling the leather cleaner in another post

I think we got to him today! He locked the topic then took it off. Some of his posts were tense. I could just see him reaching for the bottle and the pills when we were going in for the kill. I felt sorry for him despite the fact that his photos had black marks all over them - sign of an old alchey and he was trying to convince us he'd used a pea sized bit of liquid out of one bottle. Monty Python couldn't write this stuff!

The autoglym stuff is slightly older, been on the shelf hence the bottles aren't in new condition, never said they was did I

the pea sized amount I used out of the zymol is fact Carnoch, it's quite hard stuff to use as it drys so fast hence my only trying it out on my front bumper until I thought it's a pain in the arse. You can see from the line the bottle is full

I locked the thread as I placed the Advert on detailing world and since I have to sell it to the first full priced offer I decided it wasn't worth juggling the sale on here aswell.

and for you, since you seem to know it all I never removed the thread, on here,I asked for that to be done on D3 & RRS.

TBH I never expect any if you to buy them, I just thought I would give the opportunity first.

The fact that you think you got to me and I was reaching for the pills make you look like a . If you read what I reply to, Im not going to be called tight on an open forum without replying  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis
