Hi all just picked Freelander 2 up today it's a 2011 TD4 GS manual in white and love it so far, I have a 05 Discovery 3 to tow our caravan but thought we would give a Freelander 2 a go, the Disco will be up for sale if the Freelander performs ok towing, just one thing what about spare wheel it has not got one! what do all you do?

You will love it.

As for spare wheel I made sure of specifying one as it was a factory order a few years ago but you need to take your chance on flebay or similar. Lots of full sets of wheels come up but you will still need a jack etc. I would avoid the gunk in the tyre option as was the standard spec. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years
FL2 MY13 TD4 GS Current

I've a spare wheel with tyre for sale if you want one ? I'm in Pontefract so we can meet up if you want ?

Sounds good, will a full size wheel go in the well ok, the wheels are 235-65-17, jack etc no problem, Ginna104 can you pm me? so we can sort it out.

Pm'd you Trev 1.

Thanks Darren spare wheel spot on, can use the motor now and not dread a puncture.

No problem mate glad your sorted enjoy the trip out at the weekend. !!

Well that did not last long! bought a 2011 Freelander 2 TD4 GS manual in July to give them a try, cant believe how well it pulls the caravan, coming from a Disco3 got to say I like the Freelander better tows as good if not better than the Disco just don't like having to slip the clutch to move off on a hill would not like to try a steep hill with a loaded caravan on the back! mmm what do I do? easy bought a 2012 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE auto, that should solve that problem, pick it up on Tuesday 2 sleeps to go Spent today taking all the stuff of ie towbar and electrics, mud flaps, mats etc that I put on when I first got this one.

Picked it up and love it, got tow bar and electrics fitted just got to get it enabled at Guy Salmons next week.
