    Freelander 1 V6 Auto - 69,000 miles - Good order

    From the feedback I got on ebay, I doubt it is worth 1,500 pounds.

    Freelander 1 V6 Auto - 69,000 miles - Good order

    Sorry, car is near Aylesbury. It is sad but it is going for scrap as the car seems to be worth less as a car than the scrap value which I can understand... just the engine is pb worth that.

    I stopped the ebay auction. I was getting tons of emails of people trying to buy outside ebay for £50. No joke. Also, some had limited English and I could not even understand what they were proposing.

    I prefer autobox in general but that KV6 auto is very lazy... you find yourself going uphill with the box not retrograding... always had to put on manual and doing it manually... on the other hand, if you push it... it will let the engine go to 7,000 rpm, screaming and not accelerating much...

    v6 auto

    the problem is not the cost to fix it.. I do not think it would cost much to fix the electric windows/ sunroof and wiper. And my trusted indy said the noise underneath would not be more than 200-300 quid. It will also need 4 new tires. The problem is we already have 3 cars and just bought a...

    V6 Inlet manifold rattle

    got mine fixed. £150 for a inlet manifold from a breaker (good one). Local garage swapped it for £120. Total cost: £270. Fantastic engine sound and engine much stronger. Called land rover garage in Aylesbury for software upgrade. 20 minutes and four different people later, the service manager...
