  The Critics are WRONG! - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By Stefan King - July 13 - 1:36 pm

  Critics of this cool little SAV were WRONG. I signed the dotted line to purchase, then read the reviews and became nervous. All of my fears were unwarranted. Performance? Spirited performance is how Land Rover describes it and theyre 100% right. True, its a small displacement V6 which means that the upper rpm range is where the fun is! Leave the shifter in SPORT mode and FUN. Mash the throttle from the light and it zips from 0-60 in 8 seconds. Try this in a Trailblazer. Handling is very good in dry and especially wet weather. It loves the curves and handles them with confidence. Sluggish at times? Top speed was around 125 - left a Tahoe a Navigator and a Civic Si in the dust!

  Total Testimony! - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By TN J - July 12 - 10:00 am

  My Freelander had 9600 miles when I got it (Demo Model), and now it has 48756. Ive been on long trips of 1800+ miles and Yes Ive gone on the Land Rover sponsered 4WD trips. Off-road its traction control system was 100% soild. In town the ride was very comfortable (I loved the high seat position very comfy on the knees on long trips). If your over 60" you might have head room problems.On 09/2004 while driving on a local hwy I had a major accident rolling the Freelander 6 to 8 times going 60+ MPH. The Freelander all things concidered held up great! I crawled out of the wreck with one tiny cut on my face, and minor bruises. Very Impressive!

  A joy to drive, handles like a dream, accelerates very well in spite of the V6, and it always turns heads. The only complaint I have with the car is that it gets surprisingly poor mileage for a V6.

  Love this Small and Sporty SUV - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By joncourage - July 8 - 12:26 pm

  Weve really enjoyed having our Freelanders (2 2004s). We enjoyed the first so much we bought a second. Its a sporty, competent, and sharp- looking little SUV. It rides great as a commuter, and handles off-road (in our case beach and woods) adeptly. Id feel confident going just about anywhere in it. Weve put a decent amount of mileage on it and have had only a handful of very minor problems. We find the car comfortable and well- designed, although its smaller size limit its carrying capacity. We bought a roof cargo carrier to help compensate.

  Could be for you - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By bedhead - February 8 - 2:00 am

  depending on what youre looking for, this could either be the best or the worst car youll ever buy. this is for someone who wants an suv but isnt too interested in off-roading. someone who if they were getting a coupe/sedan would opt for a convertible. someone who wants a quality-made car with something more than a plain-vanilla GM make. someone who wants to stand out a little on the road without having to spend $70k. i love it, this car is for me, its easily worth the small premium.

  First 5 Months - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By CJR1977 - November 8 - 2:00 am

  I have found the Freelander to be extremely reliable in adverse weather, namely heavy rains, ice and deep snow. It maintains excellent traction and remains responsive in less than ideal conditions. Interior design is highly functional, and appealing to the eye. A pleasure to drive!

  My first Land Rover - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
  By NYLing - November 4 - 10:00 am

  This is a fun vehicle that has been equally at home driving into Manhattan and off roading at our family farm in Vermont. The ride is extremely comfortable over long distances and you have a sense of great confidence in bad weather.
