Afternoon everyone
Although I'd love a defender 90, economics just aren't playing ball currently as I'm now commuting to bakewell from leicestershire 2 or 3 times a week to visit my better half and after sunday's return journey though a near white out blizzard I found the Skoda isn't going to cut the mustard so I'm tempted with a freelander 2 to keep costs reasonable
Early stages at the moment as I have to sell the skoda but my budget all being well is £6500 but the majority of FL2's at that range seem to start at the the 140,000 mile area but seem to be lower spec'd ones.
so my question is 2 fold:
1)what is the maximum mileage thats acceptable when buying a FL2?
2) would I be better off buying a FL1 with lower mileage and change from the £6.5k to sort any tyre/transmission issues?
Thanks in advance
Phil
