ChrisS Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Been doing some reading on http://www.myfreelander.co.uk/ As above common rail Td4 Any one got any pros and cons. as I don't know much about them. The above web site seems to say it's the better type. All info greatfully received. Thanks Chris NO I AM NOT SELLING, but might be changing the estate as she who must be obayed wants a 4x4 for winter. (it is very impotant she can get to work so that I don't have to)............work that is Quote
Husky Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 freelanders are ace! but then i'm biased as i look after them at work Quote

ChrisS Posted October 19, 2010 Author Posted October 19, 2010 why PM me then post it up Realy bad day.............Think I should just go back to bed and start again tomorrow. Quote
HaydnH Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 why PM me then post it up He doesn't want everyone to see what a horrible shed he's buying! Personally I can't stand Freelanders, I'd prefer to buy the missus a Rav4 or something. Quote
ChrisS Posted October 19, 2010 Author Posted October 19, 2010 I'd prefer to buy the missus a Rav4 or something. She would probably prefer one.But she will probably only use it 20 or 30 times each winter The rest of the time it will be my knocking about bus. ( 350z to Rav4 no no no no no no no please) Yoy should see the shed I drive now Quote
Husky Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 i know this is a tall order for the attachment impared but can you send me the link again Quote
Stew Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 I drive an older Freelander with an elise engine in it... It's alright I must say however I got mine for buttons. If I was spending that cash on it I'd be getting something Japanese or a defender! The Gaylander is great at what it does but there are better wee jeeps around for 6-7k in my opinion. Quote
Husky Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Looks ok, may be a little bit pricey for a Freelander 1, but it's the diesel and they don't have the heagd gasket failures. They do get issues with the dual mass flywheel becoming two separate parts Quote

Been trawling for x trails (ugly inside) ,CR-V's (most have a zillion miles on them) don't want a RAV4. If it's OK and a good price can be had ,then maybe. God my wife has some great ideas,as said she'll probably only drive it 15 or 20 times a year. (she missed two days of work last year cos of snow) but she's a contractor...no work...no pay.. I was/am happy with my shed estate. Bad weather = tea-central heating and forum, in a nice cosy house. Quote
Husky Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 agreed, im finding the steepest and roughest drive i can so i can sip a cuppa at home while working Quote
