  I dont think its luck - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
  By happyhippo - August 23 - 11:40 am

  I thought Id give my two cents on this SUV. Ive had this thing for 4 years and at 52000 miles Ive had very few problems. I think you here more from people that do than from people that dont and I think this FL is getting a bad rap. Its a european vehicle not a chevy or a ford. It takes a little more care and driver knowledge than US cars for sure. Knowing how to drive and what to listen for mostly. Ill admit there are apparently some inferior parts in some of these trucks and it doesnt sound like Land Rover NA is concerned at all about consumer relations. That being said, Ive loved this SUV from day one and intend to keep it for quite a while yet. BTW luck is almost never on my side.

  I love my Freelander! - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
  By KPR - August 7 - 10:00 am

  Leased Freelander SE with the sunroof and the heated seats. Love this car. Dealership (Land Rover Massapequa NY) was phenomenal. Flip you the keys to test drive it and youre off. Sales process no hassle, no meeting with any "finance people". The interior is basic, like most LRs. Exterior is different, you wont look like everyone else in their Ford Toyota Jeep etc. Recently on a road trip into 40-50 mph wind and driving rain sleet. Car was comfortable at 70+. My parents have owned 5 LRs Disco and Range Rover, this car is as good overall as any. Yes the ergonomics of the cupholders and window buttons are odd but thats the way they are on all LRs.

  Fun truck. Fuel economy is poor. Fun to drive though. Very solid feel.

  "You Dont Know What Youre Missing!" - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By New England Driver - June 11 - 4:30 am

  After 8+ months of ownership of my HSE (better known as Land Rovers best kept secret), I am relieved to know that the critics were wrong! This head-turner is the most responsive and fun-to-drive SUV I have ever owened. Other than a few cosmetic flaws, I am very pleased with its driving responsiveness. As a further compliment to Land Rover, another household member bought one also!

  Let the fun begin! - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Suresh - April 14 - 10:00 am

  I was totally impressed with this little Landie & bought it in within a week of driving. Since its one-of-a- kind on the road & Ull people checking U out at the lights. Interior ergo is good and I love the heated windshield, Im ready for midwest winter.

  Better than they say it will be... - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Brocktoon - March 15 - 2:00 am

  This is a unique, solid and great handling car. Auto press complains about lack of rear disc brakes. Who cares, it stops shorter than a liberty, rav4 ect.I have driven 500 miles on ice and snow covered secondary higways and the full time all wheel drive with traction control is a real bonus. I had a Jeep Grand Chrerokee previously, and they are nowhere near as good in changable/mixed conditions, where you need the safety of all wheel drive. Also prees complains about lack of power. Seems to me that the accelerator in this car has a pretty long travel, so it requires more "boot" than might be expected. Figure that out and the pace picks up considerably.

  the best vehicle ever owned or driven - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By esaias - February 24 - 2:00 am

  the freelander is extremely capable off road. I took it to a ladrover "wheels" offroad event and it was extemely impressive. I driven a lot of vehicles and few have impressed me as much as the freelander with its off-road capability.

  Most Fun Vehicle for the Money - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
  By baeverly - January 1 - 10:00 am

  After owning 4 big SUVs the wife wanted something smaller. Went looking at 4dooor model and bought the SE3 three days later. This car is FUN. Handles like a sportscar, has 4wd, and a covertible roof. Where else can you get a European Car that is 4wd and has a convertible top for the money?
