my new FL2 on order but not the car I went in for

Hi all
5 weeks ago I went into Hunters of Preston to order a new FL2 XS but was told by LR that it was no longer available it is now being replaced by the SE TECH , on the plus side some of the extras I wanted are now standard and the car is a good bit cheaper so happy days Thumbs Up .
Delivery date 15th July Orkney grey TD4 SE TECH Manual , can't wait to get my hands on it

Thanks for this. I am normally on the Def2 forum but am looking at a FL2 tomorrow.

Any chance you could post up the specs for this SE model please and/or the differences between it and the GS/XS models?

Hi Lukev01
Same spec as XS but with Cold climate pack , 19inch alloys , Front arm rests as standard and if you ask at dealers you should get it for about £27,500 or less
Only bad point for some reason you can't get reversing camera don't know why because you could get it for the XS


Hope this helps

Thanks, will see what they offer tomorrow.

I am considering swapping my Defender 110 for one, but don't know if the swap on the PCP is doable/worth it.

Still, the dealer sold me my Defender and SWMBO her FL last year so will go for the loyalty card Very Happy and see what they can do.

Good luck hope you get a good deal

I was looking on the internet via a broker and the average price was 27.5K and 27.7K so when I went into dealers and he said what sort of price am I looking to pay and I said 27.5k and he just OK no problem so possibly could of got it for less

look forward to hearing how you got on Thumbs Up

United Kingdom 2014 Freelander 2 TD4 XS Manual Orkney Grey

Be interested to see the pricing structure. I ordered my XS back in February and got it last week. My dealer suggested the range was changing in the spring but I was ready to order back then. The range is now 4x4 only (all the 2 wheel drive versions have gone, and the trim levels are now SE, SE TECH and Metropolis.

I added the extras to mine (armrest pack, cold weather pack, spolier and rear camera and paid £29.2k for it plus the rubber mats and got a decent trade in for my estate.

I notice it now comes with 19" wheels - an option I didn't want as like like more rubber off road. Is it a cost option to go to smaller wheels?

Either way, you'll love it. An absolutely fab car to drive Td4 XS manual, Orkney Grey, MY2014

Hi DAC364 I really wanted the XS and had similar spec as yours I really didn't want the larger wheels as they will only get damaged more easily but I have taken out the extra insurance on them for 3 years cover .
Had my mondeo estate for ten years from new but been stuck in the snow a few times in the lakedistrict so looking foreward to the challenge in winter now Very Happy

Cheers
Andy

Don't know why they don't do the eversing camera because the SE TECH has the same meridian / satnav system as the XS Big Cry

I prefer the darker colours hoping it wont show the muck up as much Rolling Eyes

Exactly the same as a XS but with a few extras as standard . a last final fling before the fl is no longer
The se tech is out on the 9th June 2014

I found a few photos but took some finding the only outside diference is the 19" 10 spoke sparkle finish wheels
