hi im new to all this stuff so i dont really know how it works but i got some questions and wonder if any body can help me.
i am thinking about buying a freelander but i dont know much about them im looking at used vehicles but i see that they depriciate alot
know the reason why i want that model is because im looking for a mid size svu n i realy like the freelander so i guess that i need to know what im i looking for in them and is it a good choise of suv

 

If you are in the US stay far far away from the Freelanders. The engine/transmission combo available here is notorious for problems, like completely trashed engines.
The people who've not had expensive problems are the exception, not the norm.

 

I suggest looking at a Discovery I or II.
I could never tell someone to consider a freelander.

Welcome to the boards!

 

Freelanders have lots of issues that can be extremely costly.If your in the market for lr I agree with Cam.A D1 or D2 is a better vehicle and if your mechanically inclined a much better investment.Just search this site and ask ?'s and you should get the info you need to make a good purchase.Good luck

 

thank you all i will take you all in concideration. and my next question will be how hard is it to work on a d1 or d2 im really handy with vihecles i worked at a garage for a while and my uncle wich is the one that helps me when i hit a bump is a gm master mechanic and i just got raid of my jeep witch i did all my own work to it will i be able to work on it my self? please excuse my spelling english is a hard language to learn.lol

 

D1 parts are cheap, labour is high.

D2 Parts are expensive and labour is cheap.

Freelander parts and labour are expensive.

 

FreeLander is largely different from Discovery-I. But in wat ways and how it is different.Can Someone explain....

 

Smaller
no low range
unibody construction (compared to D1 and DII)
**** poor engine/gearbox combination in the US.
cute

 

for some reason when i got to that i almost hit the floor laughin

 

Other than the name there is nothing in common between the freelader and real landrovers!
