Hi all,
Hope someone here will be able to help me, I've been looking all over the internet about information on buying landrovers and came across this forum.I've had a look around and read a lot of the threads which have been helpful.
I'm looking for advice on is what to look for when buying a LandRover. I really want the FreeLander and have seen quite a few that I'm interested in - between 2002-2005 some are 1.8 petrol some are 2.0 TDI which is the biggest engine size I will go for because of insurance. The price for them all has been between £1000 - £2000 which is what I'm looking to spend between.
Anyway I was hoping to get some advice on what to look out for, what the main faults are and if the head gasket issues for the 1.8 petrols have been fixed on the 1.8 petrol model after 2002. I've read a few things saying stay away from Petrol, just wanted to make sure this is the same for the models after 2002 as I don't mind buying a diesel anyway.
Thanks in advance for any help.
