Had a good look at it today. Got colour coded door handles and mirror caps to paint colour of fl2. The 2 tone alloys. Seats have sport engraved in headrests. 2 tone leather. New mats. Chrome bumper strip with lr logo. Reflects onto tailgate too much though. Live your life be free-lander

Fl2 sport? Or do you mean the LRX?
If not, got any pictures? The description sounds so good.

Freelander 2 Sport has been on the Norwegian market for a while now, and as earlier mentiond. The renamed models will probably replace the old names in the UK and elswere eventually  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

Should have also mentioned that the other names are Comfort, Plus, Sport and Premium

How can sport and chrome be included in the same sentence?

Chrome is for grandpa, sport is for boy racers!

Sounds interesting LR2maker, any news on the facelift yet?

LR2 le Sport - is this the correct spelling for OXYMORON??

AndyC LR2M is telling us about a new 'Sport' edition to be joining the ranks

A facelift is completely different as they will be changing the look, design and shape of parts, such as interior, exterior things

think of it as a 1999 Ford Fiesta looks nothing like a 2009 Ford Fiesta there the same car with a facelift (ie modified for the current market) Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

All small fords look the same to me so I can't imagine the differences in Fiesta's

I realise we are being informed about a new model, but as described it will be a LR2 Sport destined for the Yank market no doubt

However a new dolled up version of a FL2 would be called a facelifted model (as BMW usually do after 2-3 years production – new plastic front & back/new lights etc), then later come with a new design with a different body shape (same new wrapping). What I was getting at and truly believe is that the original model names SE, HSE etc will be replaced with the facelift models and that the new names for ex. Sport, which is already being used in Norway, will be applied to all markets.

When the LRX and Freely replacement (possibly named Ventura or whatever) arrive, I expect the LR2/FL2 to disappear completely from the market. In the meantime, it looks like we will be getting a tarted up Freely – You can kick me later if I am wrong. 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

Just had a look at our fleet dept quote system and we have for MY10.5 the Sport LE or Aspen LE. According to the equipment list the sport will get 19" alloys, but other than that the equipment lists seem quite sparse with the sport getting rear parking aid, cruise control, climate control and auto fold mirrors over the Aspen which looks a similar spec to the S. It says the Aspen will be £18,768 and the Sport £25,815. It may be that LR haven't fully released equipment lists and so fleet are just working with the info that they have.

Thanks Trickster for the input

My fault for confusing the issue. The facelift FL2 was mentioned by LR2maker on another thread.

This special sport edition is probably a way of getting rid of some of the stock and drum up abit of publicity before the facelift makes an appearance in 2011.
