Well im back again

After a rapid decline in the state of my left side joints (shoulder, hip and knee) requiring surgery ive had to revert back to an automatic and say a very tearful goodbye my Evoque Coupe.
I would have loved an Evoque automatic but the prices are still too strong for me so the only choice was yet another FL2.

2012 '62 Sport LE but appears to have Dynamic seats and wheels. Barolo black. The difference in ride comfort on 19's against the Evoque on 19's is very different, much smoother.

You know it makes sense Very Happy
Nice very nice apart from it being black, only thing I don't like about mine. Common sense isn't very common.

Thanks all, yes it's a nice motor. Just fancied a sport/dynamic but decent mileage dynamics are a bit rich still.
But to say that LR Chesterfield had a red 61 plate Sport on the forecourt 2 years ago for 14500 they are really holding value well.

Choices of sport were only red black or white. The white ones all had a skunk stripe on the seats, the red ones a red stripe and black.... well they came with a black stripe. But there are only a handful I've seen out there with the ivory centre panel and ivory dash trim( although I'm not that into the dash bits)

Apparently only the 500 in UK with the stick on bits round the bumpers Laughing

But I genuinely haven't seen more than a couple with this interior. The ivory door handles and dash trim weren't standard sport trim IIRC. They are definitely an acquired taste

My FL2 is Biscay Blue, it has the metal fleck and, as yours can look purple in sun light ..... I hate the colour.

When I was sailing on 'Grey Funnel Lines' most of the sailors were sick whilst passing the Bay of Biscay ....... reminds me of that colour.

To lose the colour and the fleck, I haven't cleaned my vehicle for two years ..... yes two years !!

Cool

Scotland 2014 Freelander 2 TD4_e Dynamic Manual Fuji White

Very nice Rog Thumbs Up welcome back Laughing

The limited run 500 made Sport LE’s were only available in Santorini Black, Firenze Red and Fuji White. There was not any Barolo Blacks available.

There was another Sport Freelander made not sure how many to be precise but they did not had a body styling pack fitted. So not sure what was sporty about them. Yours may well be a Freelander Sport with a body styling pack fitted. MY14 Kahn Converted Dynamic - Fuji White Ebony/Pimento Interior
MY15 Xenon Headlight Conversion

MY17 RRS SVR - Estoril Blue Cirrus/Ebony 🪣💺’s

It's definitely the later Sport Ed. Made Only a couple of months before it changed to Dynamic with 2013 facelift.

I got the topix details for it to confirm which also confirmed its Barolo black sport LE with the ivory dash and later style seats fitted from factory spec so I'm wondering if it's just a standard Sport LE that they chucked stuff on out the parts bin as the last of the lone pre facelift.
