  My Freelander02 - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Oscar Rios - November 4 - 2:00 am

  This is a Premium SUV in all aspects, however it can take a lot of gas if you dont change those spark plugs yearly. the sound system is awsome and the offroad capability is remarkable i love it. parts are hard to find most of the breaks and other suff are dealer items you can find them in exclusive auto parts. have fun with your landrover!

  Multiple Problems - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By jmiddleton - November 4 - 2:00 am

  The day I bought the car the problems began. I have had problems with the gas gauge reading empty when it wasnt. One day the engine coolant container desided to break for no reason at all and smoke up my engine. I havent taken it off roading because I am afraid it is going to break down on me. The dealer told me that it is usual for the breaks to go out at about 15000 miles. I have had warning lights come one multiple times for no reason. And the list goes on.

  Looks good! - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Bettycat - November 2 - 10:00 am

  Love the looks & feels good inside. A good chicks car. The driver needs an arm rest, the engine needs more power, the upgraded stereo sucks. The rear passenge windows only go down half way. ( but I do love the vehicle anyway ) Looks DO matter!

  Disappointing Purchase - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By alias2 - September 20 - 2:00 am

  If you are considering this purhase stop...and test drive several Landrovers. I have been stranded by my 2002 Freelander with only 2200 miles at the time. It still does not ride well. A true disappointment and bad choice for this year.

  Awesome Drive - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By New Owner - September 20 - 2:00 am

  I just purchased the Land Rover Freelander after looking at all the SUVs in its class (and test driving them). Not only did I find the Freelander the best in its class, but I also found the dealership to be quite impressive. Very up-front. No cheesie sales people here! The nice sales people and no stress atmosphere is what out me over the edge in getting the Freelander. No hassles. I know another satisfied customer as well who has had one longer. I review again after I have driven it a while. But right, now, I am very impressed.

  Great little Landie - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By bryanmsi - September 14 - 10:00 am

  After reviewing nearly every small SUV, I thought the new Land Rover Freelander was the easy choice. Only a few thousand more than comparably-equipped Escape or Liberty but with features neither of them had, like traction control, steptronic transmission, and hill descent control. On road handling is simply awesome - this thing feels like a European sports car. Off road, it still feels like a mountain goat. I also love the quirky interior layout. It is refreshingly different from other vehicles on the road and really reminds you that you have a Land Rover.

  Perfect size for Mom, Baby and Outdoors - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By cjm - September 14 - 10:00 am

  After my husbands safari-equipped Discovery and driving many traditional SUVs... the Freelander meets all of our needs WITHOUT the worry of fitting in a parking garage. Dollar for dollar the Freelander makes the most financial sense... It drives like a passenger car, has the off-road capability of its brothers and can handle a family of four with all the gear accordingly.... additionally, aside from the service you can expect to find associated with the Land Rover name it is always nice to know your vehicle is not another cookie-cut product found in every garage in America.

  To many problems - 2002 Land Rover Freelander

  The drivers choice - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By ducati - August 8 - 2:00 am

  We compared the LR to the Jeep Liberty, Mazda Tribute, Honda CRV, Ford Escape, and Audi A4 Avant quattro. Out of those choices, only the Land Rover had excellent on-road manners (approaching that of a sport sedan) and off-road capability. It is truly an excellent blend for the real world user. I do think the dash is a bit ugly, but the quality of the leather (HSE) is 10 steps above the crap offered in the Liberty. For only a few more $$ than Liberty, and with 4.9% financing (3.9% for cloth S), this is the vehicle to own for those who like to drive. Interestingly enough, as we got down to our last drives, the Audi A4 Avant quattro was really the only competitor..
