  • Not an SUV - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    The mistake people make is that Land Rover makes "ATVs" not SUVs. This is a great one, made by the master. Its designed for people that love to move with the road. It may look small, but get inside this one. More room than you can imagine. Just sit in this one, and test drive it you will want to own one. Priced very well for a Rover. Well build and sealed (nothing gets inside, any where).

  • Happy So Far!!! - 2005 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    I am having so much fun with this car! The interior is smaller than what I am used to (I have owned several SUVs in the past). But its just me so I dont need much room! It has plenty for what I need! I have had no problems whatsoever and am loving driving this car! I have read all about brake problems, transmission, etc. I think every type of car has its lemons that role off the line every once in awhile! Mine is not one and I am happy to see all of the good and realistic reviews on this vehicle!

  • Sturdy and Solid SUV! - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    What a great SUV. Very sturdy and solid on the roads and in any weather condition. Powerful engine up hills, a little sluggish at the start. I havent had any electrical or engine problems at all. Very reliable. One of the funnest and most enjoyable cars Ive owned and driven.

  • FUN,FUN,FUN SUV - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    IT RIDES LIKE MY LINCOLN ON THE ROAD, OFF ROAD IT FEELS SURE FOOTED. IT REMINDS ME OF MY OLD BMW, I ALSO HAVE A CORVETTE WHICH HAS BEEN IN THE GARAGE SINCE THE HIPPO (FREELANDER) ARRIVED. IT COULD USE A COMPASS AND SHOULD COME WITH MUD FLAPS AND CROSS RAILS FOR THE ROOF RACK, BUT I AM ADDING THEM. I HAVE NOT HAD AS MUCH FUN DRIVING IN YEARS.

  • BAD BREAKS - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    what is up with the breaks on this car? a new car that needs breaks We will never purchase another one of these vehicles or recommend one to are friends.when communicating with the service dept., at Hubacher Cadillac in Sacramento Ca. my wife was told that it has been a problem and the brakes on the freelander are needing replacement after 15,000. When the brakes fail they go metal to metal without warning very strange and dangerous to drive. Maybe we should park are freelander across the street from the dealer ship with a big sign on it as to what is wrong with this car. Oh by the way when the brakes go out there is know warning.

  • Freelander: the right sized SUV - 2003 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    The Freelander is a unique, fun to drive, premium small SUV. I like to think that its the perfect size -- just big enough to haul my gear around, but not as huge as some of the other small to mid SUVs. It looks great, and there are few of them around so I dont see myself coming and going. Road holding is very car like. The interior is comfortable, if a bit spartan. Back seat room is exellent and comfortable. LATCH access for the baby seat is great. Since this is the last of the current body style, the dealers are dealing, so if you want the base model S (which goes away next year), get to your dealer today to check it out.

  • Night mare - 2002 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    I have spent over $12,000 on this car, $7,500 of which at a dealership to fix the engine, with no luck. Then the transmission broke down and that took another $4,000. It has been out for less than 200 miles and the service engine light is on. This car is so lovable but such a nightmare. Are there new model engines and transmissions that can work on this 2002 Freelander?

  • Like Lemons? Youll Love Freelanders! - 2005 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    Computer/electrical problems right off the bat. HCD light keeps coming on (very bad sign) and engine sputtering. In the shop 4 times in less than 2 months. Left stranded 2 times in freezing weather - dead as a door nail. Horrible brakes, slides bad. Head room for people under 3 (three) feet tall. Land Rover road-side service is undependable - took 4 hrs to show up. Radio is grainy and weak. CD player/ radio has broken twice. Leather/door fabric gets dirty very easily and does not clean up well. Problems with Freelander range from serious safety issues to the unbelievably annoying. My 1997 Altima had less trouble. Shouldve bought a Honda CRV! Trading this piece of junk in next week. $27,000 mistake!

  • WARNING Horrible quality, design, - 2005 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    This is the absolute worst vehicle ever. In addition to being noisy uncomfortable and riding like a farm tractor, the FreeLander has a fatal design flaw in that the Head Gasket fails requiring a new engine. Nobody wants these vehicles (80% depreciation in 3 years) resale is horrible. You would actually feel guilty selling it. I was 2 years and 51k into my 5 year 50 k warranty and Land Rover refused to warranty the engine this engine is notorious for head gasket failure, Everything breaks in this car wiper motors, all latches for the glove box, center console fuse cover, mirror motors the heat, defrosters switches gas cap. You name it it breaks. The cost to make repairs is astronomical

  • Great vehicle - 2004 Land Rover Freelander
    By -

    42 Years old and my wife gets pregnant. So I have to trade in the luxury sedan. I have two kids in college and needed something to throw a stroller in and be able to keep my golf clubs and my 11 year olds baseball stuff in. This SUV for the price is the way to go i have had no problems and it runs and feels great.....of the small SUVs I drove.....none compare.
