The future is life extension. I also get a kick out of seeing low mileage well preserved old vehicles.

All good, I know you started it the thread with good intentions, just couldn't resist it

I bought my freebie because it was a cheap workhorse and you get a lot for your money if you find one that works. Now it's lasted a couple years and I've put 15k miles on it, and I've started to get a bit attached....

Now wondering what to do with it next, personally I'd like to take it off the road for a couple years and rebuild the engine, but I just don't have time or money or space for that yet. It's so tidy inside and I don't want to get rid of it yet don't think anyone else would be bothered about it - feel that with 95k miles on the clock it's not very desirable. Just want to keep it running in good condition if I can.

One day this will change. Like Escorts and Cortinas etc. Escorts were £100 -£500 when I was learning to drive. A mk1 Cortina in 1975 was part exchanged for £30 with 27k on the clock. Still not forgiven my uncle for this dastardly deed

Freelander 1 doesn't seem so rare at the moment....but this is rare:

L-series diesel.
Commercial.
50th Anniversary edition.

Needs a spot of work! but I doubt anyone will see another. Wish I could have it! bit far away for me.

1997 Land Rover freelander £400

I "decoded" the reg as T797 XAS from the photos.
