The main advantage of the FL2 over the FL1 is that it can pulse the brakes quicker, thus allowing betterer control of spinning tyres or on loose surface. The electronics has advanced so you can select snow mode (several different modes available) for example which reduces the power output so you don't spin wheels when pulling away. Also reduces sharpness of brakes whem applying them. this sort of thing can be done manually in any car if your a good driver. Auto's have more gears. Not sure about manuals. Diesels are newer and cleaner/faster/higher power. Auto is very smooth - as it should be. Ride is far more comfortable. Wobble and suspensin control is better. General feel of the vehicle is betterer. so is nerior/road holding/ride. FL2 prices are high as they're popular. Most sales are for the GS or HSE. not so much the S or XS. GS has the best value for money set-up. Full leather interior interior inside is popular and holder it's price betterer. Add on toys are eggspensive. Check you have a full spare wheel + tyre.

Hi All

My wife and I are expecting our first born and my current car is not well suited to heavily pregnant women or babies!

We are thinking about getting a Freelander and over on the Audi forms we regularly get potential owners linking to cars requesting some feedback from the people in the know!

I have my eye on the following: AutoTrader

It has 12 Months MOT and the service history is part Landover with the last service being a specialist garage. 1 owner from new and nothing dodgy in the history (apart from the private plate changes). The cost looks comparable to other similar models tho would brining the seller down closer to the 14K mark be too much?

Thanks for the help and I'm looking forward to contributing where I can!
