  Freelander - 2005 Land Rover Freelander
  By Jane - January 17 - 4:53 am

  The 2005 Freelander is an overall excellent car to have. It has a mixture of sportiness, luxury, and refinement that you cant find in any of its competitors. Its great in the snow and off-road while still having great on-road performance. It is very stylish and feels great to drive. The only complaint that i have is that it is about 20hp short of what it should have. Overall i love it!(looks great in silver or black).

  Im buying American! - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
  By uscarbuyer - January 12 - 4:03 pm

  My Land Rover owned me. I have never owned a vehicle that required so much maintenance. I have never off-roaded in my Land Rover, nor have I had a fender bender or accident. I purely drive on the pavement to and from work, and in town driving to the movies, dinner, etc. My car is a southern car and has only seen snow for two weeks in the almost 5 years it has owned me. I cannot recommend buying any Land Rover! Anything that goes wrong you are told it is the "British design". Brakes and batteries are expected to last 10-20K miles. I cannot remember the number of recall notices, too many to count. At times the windows wont power down. I thought I would enjoy the durability. Nope. All of the cap covers & compartment covers fall off. My drink holder spring fell out for no apparent reason. I am not tough on my car & it is literally falling apart. I will find plastic pieces on the floor & have no idea where they came from. Im buying American!

  Freelander-Best in my Experience - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
  By LRMOM - January 11 - 10:00 am

  I have owned/driven "SUVs" for 23 years (Blazer-K5, Jeep-Cherokee, Pathfinder), but the Freelander clearly performs above the rest for handling, pure utility, and fun to drive. After 20,000 miles, not one mechanical issue. The cargo room is small, but will suffice for runs to the hardware, hauling one piece of furniture, or a trip for four who pack light. I would buy this car again without question.

  By kimmarsh - January 4 - 8:26 pm

  Ive had no trouble from my 2004 HSE. I consistently get 19-21 mpg and mechanically, its been a great vehicle. The ride is fantastic and the fit and finish on my vehicle is great!

  And its not one of those me too vehicle - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Loonie - November 21 - 6:20 am

  We looked at all the utes and this one fit us the best. Besides, with 3.9% LandRover credit how could you go wrong? Cargo space is small, and there are a few luxury items you cannot have, but the owners manual is worth it. I now have a button (hood) release, and it is on the passenger side.

  Sell before warranty ends! - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
  By alesha1 - November 19 - 11:23 pm

  I liked my car. But the brakes go out a lot. Antenna definitely not in a good location, was ripped off by a tree. Its kinda loud, when you drive. As soon as the warranty expired at 50,000 within a month I needed a new g filter $500 Landrover would do nothing. And now at 70,000 I was loosing coolant car will not start. Apparantly like everyone else I need an engine. I called Landrover the day it would not start, they acted like they had no clue why. Once I got on here I know they know whats wrong with it they are just trying to get me to tow it there so they can charge me an arm and a leg to fix it.

  Dont ever buy a Landrover Freelander - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
  By Maurice - November 17 - 1:06 pm

  I have never had so many issues with a vehicle. If you are even thinking about buying a Land Rover Freelander STOP! DonÂ’t waste your money. Two weeks after I bought it I noticed the engine was over heating and that was the start of my problems. From the motor, to the windows, to the heat, to the sunroof, to the door locks all had to be replaced with NO RECALLS. I know I put at least $6,000 into it. The dealership doesnÂ’t exist anymore and the Freelander is a huge lemon. I repeat DO NOT BUY A LANDROVER!

  Its a love/hate thing. - 2005 Land Rover Freelander
  By JustinTimeDC - November 1 - 12:16 am

  I did a ton of research and came up with this car because it is FUN! The t-roof pops off, hard top comes off, and you are out in the sun. Seating is excellent, I have a bad back and the support is the best! You can wipe down the entire inside with water or windex or whatever...keeping it clean is a snap. It looks fun, and no one has ever seen one before, so it gets a lot of attention. For a single person like me, it has tons of room for everything I need. I am a nurse and have to get to work no matter what the weather, and it gets through anything nature dishes out. I have had a computer/software problem but the dealership works with me and gives me loaners when needed.
