Welcome to the forum Adam,

I can't help you with your hunt for a Freelander (don't know that much about them to be honest) but good luck. I'm sure someone on here can help you!

Cheers for the welcome guys

Hi Adam and welcome, I'm a newbie too. I did a fair bit of research before buying our 1.8 XEi Freelander Station Wagon but unfortunatly at the time didn't know about this site.

Its a darned well behaved 4x4 to drive and both me and my wife are really pleased with ours. A poor turning circle is my only quible making even turning into a car park space something to be planned for a clean sweep into a space. This I'm presuming is normal for a 4x4.

It's really down to Petrol or Diesel. Initially I was seriously put off the petrol version as I found quite a few folks moaning about blown head gaskets. In reality, although this is an issue and some owners have had problems there are a huge amount of petrol Freelanders around which haven't had this problem.

I wont add anymore info as there are folks on this site far better informed than myself. All I can say is I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

But you'd enjoy a Defender even more.....
