Absolutely, which is why I have one, but LR did make reliable vehicles. The Freelander2 is very reliable.
However I'd not have a D3/4, simply because they're an expensive repair waiting to happen.

Fair comment. I looked at the Freelander (a really nice motor), but really need something with a larger boot. I appreciate that the D4 is going to be a leap of faith, but my heart is not set on it yet.

Either keep the Volvo or finance a new discovery with a warranty ,
It's unwise to buy any modern land rover at the moment as a used vehicle.

But what about the bevel gear, and the AW box, and the prop, and the haldex, and the BCU, and what looks like rust on the composite tailgate?
The rear diff had some issues, but can be fixed if needed. The PTU can give issues if the Haldex hasn't been serviced. The BCM never gives trouble, and the tailgate seldom rusts as it's galvanised, along with the rest of the body.
The Freelander 2 was also LR's most reliable vehicle by a huge margin.

Nodge. You don't half talk a load of twiddle.
Yours has a miss fire you can't fix and has more rust on the subframe than a bean can that's been in the sea for 20years.

You have form for stalking.
It leads to very unpleasant stuff.
I warned you to stay in AG so you know what happens next.

Ding dong, the witch bumstick is dead banned.
Again.
Again.
Surface rust was treated 2 years ago. If it was as rusty as you say, it would fail the MOT.
The misfire comes and goes, making it difficult to identify, but happens so infrequently, I simply ignore it.
There are far more important things to be worrying about in life, than a misfire in my daily driver.
Once I go EV, it'll not be my problem.
Maybe he'll turn up at my door next.You have form for stalking.
