Got this car coming into stock, it's a V6 ES Auto, in Tangiers orange, with winch, roofrack, snorkle-that's all I know so far.

According to Land Rovers Microcat details, it has an Australian literature pack and KPH only speedo, I'm hoping this has been sorted.

Can any of you give me an idea where this car went and what it was used for please?

Maybe the current owner is on the forum? I'm guessing based North Derbyshire / South Yorkshire area?

TBH - you're better off keeping the speedo in KPH... It's part of the charm. ;)

Freelander is now in stock, just drove it 40 odd miles, very nice apart from wheel bearing noise and diff mount bush clunking.

Warn winch looks almost unused, with front and rear mounts, lights all work, Bluetooth kit.

Pictures on link below.

Well... It's missing the decals and the decals it does have are wrong. Also, I suspect that there's at least a dog guard missing.



Even so, it still looks nice. :D



BTW - How much are youu wanting to flog it for??

I thought the graphics looked odd, can you tell me what they should be?

Price wise I have no clue.

Is it worth £8k?

Only near comparison I can find is at Nene for £14!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (!)

Can't find any marks where a dog guard may have been.

Have found fire extinguisher and 6 disc changer though!

Your thought are very welcome.

This is probably a good guide as to the decals...

Or the club... the merchandising officer (MACG4!) will be able to provide a set.

Update- the noisey wheel bearing was in fact the IRD on its way-no clunks or anything, just unpleasant!

New front brakes, all filters inc pollen, clunk from back is in fact silencer bumping on rear guard.

Had to drive up to Halifax to collect IRD from Beaumonts, the one we had on the shelf was not a V6 one!

Should be ready to drive tomorrow.

Well, I NEARLY bought this Freelander, but was not allowed to have two orange Land Rovers!! However Rob was a pleasure to deal with, and whoever is lucky enough to buy it, I'm sure will have a great vehicle.:)
