flash Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 after being hit in newquay by a VW polo(relevant threat in sporting pictures i think), i went through the insurance, and claimed off the 3rd partys insurance. went into the garage today to hand over the keys and get my courtesy car, expecting a small hatchback, the lovely girl behind the counter then turned to a work mate and asked for the keys to the freelander, at which point my ears pricked up 2 mins later an 07 plate freelander 2 rolled out from the back of the garage and i was handed the keys got in and then spent 5 mins trying to figure out how to turn the bloody thing on lol. took it for a quick spin before going home. its such a nice car to drive, handles well, has plenty of power and torque and goes like **** off a shovel :blink: now just need to take it for an offroad test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie 1 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 all freelanders get very bad press however those that actually have one love them i have one and think its the dogs dangles. and the freelander 2 is a lovely car u r very lucky m8. my boss wrote his landrover off a couple of months ago which he needed for work (towing trailers etc) and the insurance company said to him he was going to have a nissan micra as a courtasy car, he laughed and they eventually gave him a big old jap 4x4. have fun offroading it!

steve_b_wales Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I bought a new Freelander2 2.2TDGS back in March. I use it off road only to drive up tracks and a few fields. Its a lovely vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJN Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 It all depends on what you are comparing it too. having had disco's for 8 years I was given a 1.8 petrol freelander (older model now going back a few years) it was **** in comparison to the Disco TDi5 ES I was used too M.

paulf Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 If you do think about off roading the courtesy free lander then check the insurance covers it, I doubt it will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
