| | 2008 LAND ROVER FREELANDER 2 SE TD4 AUTO SILVER .
An exceptional example of a truly brilliant car!!
LandRover Freelander II 2.2 TD4 SE Automatic 2008 This excellent example has been cherished and enjoyed by me for the past 3 years, but the possibility ...> of retirement means that I can no longer justify keeping such a vehicle. Backwards and forwards to Tesco once a week? What a waste !! This car is mechanically in excellent condition, and has been fully serviced in accordance with LandRover specifications from new. Full history is available. The bodywork and interior of the car are each in excellent condition also. When washed and cleaned looks just like new. The car has `half-leather` seats in blue with black leather. Engine is a powerful 160bhp 2.2 turbo deisel that will cruise effortlessly at 70mph whilst running at less than 2000rpm, and yet returns for me a figure of just over 36mpg (combined). Gearbox is a 6-speed AUTOMATIC, with a `Command Mode` that allows the option of manual gear changes just by nudging the gear stick. Alloy wheels, including full-size spare, are in excellent condition. Spare has actually never been used. Car is complete with usual LandRover / RangeRover facilities such as: Electronic Stability Program, Hill Descent Control, Terrain and weather-related settings at a touch. `Alpine` In-Car Entertainment includes: multi-band radio, multi-change CD player, MP3 etc. Front seats are electronically adjustable, and electronically heated. Electric windows, electrically adjustable and heated mirrors, and electrically operated sunroof(s) are included. Electrically heated windscreen and rear window. Built-in Sat Nav system and In-Car Telephone system included. Car has parking sensors front and rear. Also has front and rear fog lights. Steering wheel is reach and rake adjustable. Car is fitted with a `Witter` towbar and has been used to tow a small trailer with, for example, garden rubbish. Car can be viewed if required by contacting vendor. Prospective purchasers please note that car is avaialable on a `collection only` basis. X

Report this review Engine is too bloody complicates with loads of stuff to go wrong and it's BMW so everything costs a fortune.
Getting rid of mine and going back to a Defender 90 200/300TDi. At least the chassis components and most of the engine components are patterned.
What you spend in fuel on a 90/110 is less than what I'm spending on parts on my Freelander!!

It is used everyday and in all that time it hasn't let me down once! Only things I have ever had to pay for are new front brakes year before last, new back brakes this year and air-con re-gassing. It's never failed an Mot and even the mechanic who serviced it a couple of months ago said it was a great car and he doesn't like landrovers! Only downside of this great car is 2.5 petrol engine fuel consumption, I get about 25 mpg and a lot less when towing ...

Report this review As with any review type sites the bad news seems to travel further and faster than the good news. Landy's are your typical 'marmite vehicle' you just love em or loath em. I love mine!!! Yes, being objective about it mine has had one or two things go wrong with it but then I have not had a car yet that didn't need maintaining and unfortunately all motors cost you money. To offset this my Landy has held its value brilliantly!

I joined the forum at Landyzone.co.uk and researched the issues that the freelander has and yes it does have a few but there are things you can do to help the running of the car if you know about them.

The economy is fine at 32-34 mpg, especially being an auto and having the aerodynamics of a brick. Only reliability issue I have had is when driving from Belgium to Germany it lost power and put out black smoke.

Expert Rating: Land Rovers Freelander is at its best when its got a Td4 badge on its back end. Andy Enright explains whyWas the fact that the latest Freelander was going to be something rather special just about the worst kept secret of 2006? The form line was undeniable. The Range Rover, Land Rover Discovery3 and then the Range Rover Sport all proved to be utterly indomitable in their respective product niches. It would have been an upset of monumental proportions for Land Rover to suddenly go off the boil with their volume seller, the Freelander.Merit only goes so far in this market. Only at the very end of its development phase was the old Freelander in any way class competitive. In truth it had been overtaken by most of its Japanese rivals a while back and traded on the strength of its badge for quite some time. The development money poured into the latest model may not win as many incremental sales as Land Rover might imagine. Many small 4x4s are set up to ride firmly on road, their manufacturers knowing that they will rarely, if ever, be subjected to off-road use. The Freelander is different and was engineered with off-road use very much in mind. A slightly unconventional blend of soft springs but relatively stiff anti-roll hardware and surprisingly sharp steering fulfils this task but makes motorway driving less relaxing than it could be. The flip side of this is that barrelling down a typical B-road is more fun than youd have any right to expect. The Freelander Td4 will hit 60mph from rest in 10.5 seconds, so its not among the quickest of the diesel compact 4x4s but it always feels keen and puppyish, the 158bhp four-cylinder engine delivering its maximum torque at 2,000rpm with peak power chiming in at 4,000rpm, giving a decently wide power band. All but the entry level model get Land Rovers excellent Terrain Response system for off-road driving, which goes a long way towards excusing the Freelander for its lack of a proper low-range transfer case. This system acts almost like an off-road expert sat alongside you, selecting the best traction mode for any given terrain type. No rival has anything quite like it."The irony is that its a quantum leap forward but just the same people are going to buy it..."The shape is instantly familiar, albeit one which looks as if vehicular geneticists have artificially inseminated a Freelander with some purebred Range Rover DNA. The MK1 Freelander was one of those rare exceptions a vehicle that just got better and better looking throughout its lifetime and the second generation car has upped the ante again. Whilst it retains the chunky good looks, Land Rover has imbued it with a far more premium look and feel, which is just as well because average prices have crept up across the range. Although the shape is recognizable, you get more Freelander for your money now. Its 50mm longer, 109mm wider and 32mm taller but the wheels have been moved further towards each corner, freeing up another 105mm in the cars wheelbase, making rear seat accommodation a whole lot better. Weight has crept up to over 1,900kg in the process but a parallel improvement in safety and refinement is a transaction most customers will be willing to accept. The interior is a somewhat unusual mix of very high quality materials with some surprisingly cheap plastics. Five trim levels share the same Td4 diesel engine and these vary in price across a £10,000 span. That is a huge differential between the top and the bottom, and the reason its so wide is that all but the most craven badge snobs will likely ignore the stripped-out S entry model, priced at £20,960 to give the Freelander an eye-catching starter price. View the first rung on the Freelander Td4 ladder as the next model up, the GS, priced at £23,460 and youll appreciate how de-contented the S model is. The GS gets the Terrain Response, climate control, front fog lights and 17-inch alloys. Step up to the XS and youll also get a nine-speaker Alpine stereo, electric front seats and parking sensors, plus a different design of alloy wheel. The SE factors in touch-screen sat nav, heated front seats and an electric sunroof, while the HSE version includes leather seat facings, a 14-speaker Dolby Pro Logic stereo and 18-inch alloys. For around £32,000 in diesel form, the Freelander2 range tops out in HST form, where you get a Sports Styling Pack with front and rear bumper aprons, side sill mouldings and a rear roof spoiler. The 10-spoke 19-inch alloy wheels are finished in shadow chrome and fill out the arches beautifully to give the HST an aggressive, hunkered down appearance that works well with the chunky styling. Privacy glass and metallic paint are also standard. Its no use ignoring the fact that the Freelander Td4 is an expensive piece of tackle, price tweaking with the S notwithstanding, but sales figures suggest that many see it as a price worth paying. Once youve got over the initial purchase price, ongoing running costs are reasonably manageable. Theres certainly no grumbles about fuel economy, the claimed 37.7mpg fuel figure being one of the best in the class despite the hefty kerb weight. On test, we averaged just under 29mpg, but that was with a notoriously lead-footed crew of drivers and the 68-litre fuel tank gave a very respectable touring range. As a relatively new product, the Freelander Td4 also looks set to offer extremely strong residuals. The old car wasnt a shabby performer in this regard and this latest Td4 model will be in especially strong demand, particularly in GS and XS trim levels. Insurance quotations might not be quite as friendly as with some rivals, insurers having cottoned onto the fact that any car thats respectable off road may generate a few claims from pernickety customers with little or no no-claims bonus for items such as scratched alloy wheels or cracked front spoilers. Emissions arent quite as good as rivals such as the BMW X3, the Honda CR-V or the Toyota RAV4 T180 but there isnt a whole lot in it, the 194g/km figure being respectable for a go almost anywhere 4x4. Image aside, theres no one area where the Land Rover Freelander Td4 trounces the opposition. The Honda CR-V is better for shopping and the Toyota RAV4 T180 more fun to drive. An aged Jeep Cherokee is more capable when up to its axles in mud and if its space youre after, a Kia Sorento is a better bet. If youre not quite so determinedly focused on any one discipline, the Freelander shines. It does everything acceptably well and looks better than any of the others while doing so. Dub it a jack of all trades but master of none if you like, but this well-rounded blend of abilities is probably right for this sort of market. The old Freelander sold in multitudes without ever being a particularly great piece of hardware. The irony about the latest version is that its a quantum leap forward but just the same people are going to buy it.Facts At A Glance CAR: Land Rover Freelander 2 Td4 range PRICES: £20,960-£31,990 on the road INSURANCE GROUP: 11-13 CO2 EMISSIONS: 194g/km PERFORMANCE: Max Speed 115mph / 0-60mph 10.5s FUEL CONSUMPTION: (urban) 30.6mpg / (extra urban) 45.5mpg / (combined) 37.7mpg STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES: Seven airbags, anti lock brakes, ESP WILL IT FIT IN YOUR GARAGE?: Length/Width/Heightmm 4500/2180/1740 Build Comfort Depreciation Economy Equipment Handling Insurance Performance Styling Value Wednesday February 27 Send by Messenger Email this article Print ADVERTISEMENT if(window.yzq_d==null)window.yzq_d=new Object();

In fact, the two share no significant parts at all. The first-generation Freelander was developed during the time when Rover met BMW; this model was born entirely under Ford’s custody. And it has a hard act to follow. Not in terms of competence – we’ve already established that the new Freelander is more than just a mild improvement on its forebear – but it has quite some sales success to ape. The original Freelander was the biggest-selling SUV across Europe for five years. Where it didn’t do so well was in the US and some Asian markets. The 1.8-litre petrol engine was deemed fairly inadequate even in Europe, while the revvy 2.5-litre KV6 auto was too short on easygoing pace for countries whose people have big spaces to cross. American customers also felt the old Freelander’s cabin was too cramped. So the new car has a pretty straightforward brief: be roomier, classier, more comfortable and more competent, but still be a proper Land Rover.
