owning a freelander is like owning any other landrover, it will have its problems, but it'll always make up for them and put a smile on your face.
i didnt regret it but now after the latest problem its guna have to go had it 9 months and done about 6000 mile wich has cost me ova a grand to keep her goin so far the bank nis empty cant cope with it no more wich is a shame cos i love it to bits but just cant afford to keep fixin it
thing is i paid 3000 for it and to be fair i expected it to have the odd problem but tis one thing after another and like i said once its fixed itll have to go cos therez no money left to mot it or insure itOnly a thousand? Pfffff you got off lightly. I've had mine just over a years and done about 7k, it's cost me about 2.5k in bits and pieces and all DIY, but then I got it for nothing so I don't mind.
I love my '99 K series FL. Bought it with 102 k on the clock. Needed some tlc but I found it easy to work on. It still has some niggles to iron out and it's in 2WD at the mo due to a shot VCU. I'd buy another but I'll stick with FL1. Maybe a V6 next time.
V6 all the way for me Hippo practicality with hot hatch pace!!
