Tbh,....no,I would love a spoiler ,if one comes along,as had one fitted to my old one,but could have had one from factory with new one but delivery would have been mid sept,..I've been with out wheels for 15 day already so that was a no,no,...LEDs interior builds are a must,got them ready,got winter rubber mats from Duckworth, load liner. Will be busy protecting paint and alloys with Wolf products. That's it at the moment, but who knows Current: Freelander 2 GS, Orkney Grey, Factory fit privacy glass, design pack and Clearview pack.

Damn right it does....you'll be lucky if the Dealership valeters have even bothered to remove the transport waxing properly! You'll be surprised what comes off on your clay bar when you do it properly.... Foraging near Gaydon....

Wales 2013 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Orkney Grey

That's right,,,but some strastone dealers have upgraded the gs they supply to the xs/ black / white edt alloys so there is more of a visual difference between s and gs,,,as they are std on s on the my13 now,...I've had these style alloys on my last 3 freelanders,and although a tad dissapointed they are on my new one,they seem to stand up to a bit of light punishment off road,and never seems to get scratched or damaged with the wrangler tyres on,so plus points...as I do travel up tracks,farm lanes a bit in winter,,,,the sparkles shadow 19 inch rims wouldn't be for me,..and as so many about they seem to be cheap to buy if u do damage one.... Current: Freelander 2 GS, Orkney Grey, Factory fit privacy glass, design pack and Clearview pack.

Landrover seemed to lost its way a bit with the spec on the gs2013,,,with fogs costing extra,no auto wipers lights,cost extra,....even the sales guy said it dont make sense Shocked I just found out got no sun visor lamp unlike my 61 reg gs....so free leather is not so free Rolling with laughter Current: Freelander 2 GS, Orkney Grey, Factory fit privacy glass, design pack and Clearview pack.

I have 19" wheels on mine and every one has been marked thanks to the wife! (It is her car I guess!!) but the ones you have we're immaculate even after 5 years of use so I totally agree with them not marking as easily and as I have found out recently as I need 4 new 19" tyres they are so much cheaper on the 17's!! Black FL2

I think most salesmen are saying the same. I always went for the GS as it was a nice spec not too basic and not too over the top, when came to this one I went for XS as the time I added some bits it was close in price. My salesman says the same LR have messed up the GS. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200
