    The New Freelander 2 -"Prep & Delivery".

    They would probaly laugh at some of the wierdos on here lol. I did mention the earlier comments when I first joined this forum to a salesman in another dealer & his reply was what I expected. Laffing is spelt laughing.

    The Allegro was before my time - I'm not that old. Landrover don't make brown. Didn't want to be the silver or black brigade they are all tose colours & if your corperate colour is burgundy what't the point of buying a blue car - that would be like saying to Arsenal that you need to wear green...

    The New Freelander 2 -"Prep & Delivery".

    I can't understand some of the comments etc on here. I joined this forum because I was (at that time) planning to join LandRover owners on an ENTHUSIASTS forum where from other experience joining like minded owners/enthusiasts :confused: where you share ownership interests, problems etc. I'm...

    What difference does it make whether it is in a showroom or in a field?

    Here are 2 pictures I took just as I was about to leave. I had obviously fitted the chrome mirrors by then. Yes it is new. The vehicle next to it is a GS model.

    That's a fair comment but why bother reading threads if your'e not interested? Fortunately most members of enthusiast forums are less narrow minded!!or at least they are of the 8 other forums I frequent.

    Strange!!Obviously not interested. I am used to being on forums with enthusiasts!!

    The New Freelander 2 -"Prep & Delivery".

    Thaught as well start a fresh thread as the other is about the ordering rather than the item its'self. So for those that are interested here we go. The first set of photo's are from last Saturday when I was in the dealer workshop looking at it just as it had been delivered. (these photos are on...

    Just Ordered New Freelander2.

    That's about the same delivery time as mine. I ordered mid September & collect tomorrow (Saturday). The dealer handed over a black GS today. It was parked next to mine in the showroom yesterday. When you say only option, is that the only option you specified or the only option available? cos I...

    Heated windscreen or FBH on HSE?

    Strange how many similarities remained even years after ties were severed with Rover Group. When the Freelander 1 was facelifted at the end of 2003 the styling ideas were very similar to those on the MG Rover range done around the same time!

    No because this one is entitled "Just Ordered" & is an old thread.

    Just Ordered New Freelander2.

    I am going to the dealer on Thursday 26th to polish it myself (in the showroom:)) & then I am due to collect on Saturday morning. I will start a fresh thread. I rang them today to see how they were getting on with the fitting of the accessories & so far they have done the front light pods, front...

    Just Ordered New Freelander2.

    No it is the 1.4 K-Series. At the time I bought the ZR I was also running an MG ZT260-V8 & didn't want to have 2 high insurance premiums!! However the rest of the spec of the little van was/is better than in the 160 car let alone the 160 van. Regarding the Freelander, it arrived at the...

    Just Ordered New Freelander2.

    Yes in many cases I would totally agree but the amount of positive comments I get with my MG ZR-Express Van are amazing & previously when I had the Rover 75 Connoisseur SE Tourer & the Freelander Mk1. Many people have commented on how clean & smart my vehicle looks & they say I hope my car...

    Just Ordered New Freelander2.

    As I'm not using it off road it's good enough for what I want it for. It has a Landrover badge & made in the same factory so is a proper one. The Defender is nice but only if you want it on a farm would be useless for my job as it would look to old & basic. Discovery - ok if you can afford a...
