RSTurbo,

Same colour as mine, nice isn't it ?

Looks like you live in the mountains over there, how is the car holding out ?

Any problems with temperature when climbing ?

We are planning a trip into the Alps this summer.

Greetings

Hi ledzep. That place is situated at 700 meters, but all around there are a lot of high peaks. Climbing slopes isn't a problem for this car in spite of a full weight. No temperature problems founded naturally.
Alps won't disappoint you. Cheers

2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Narvik Black

CR-V?? the gravel path its natural home

Consider one before the FL2, very well designed and thought out, plastic I find are a little cheap in Honda's having recently owned a Civic type R, also think the styling is a matter of taste. Well specced vehicle for the money and I am sure they will be bomb proof.

I presume the FL2 had to tow the Honda up the gravel hill cause it sure didn't get there on its own!!!

Is it me but do the Honda CRV, Lexus 400, Hyundai Santa Fe, Sexton, all come from the same jelly mould. They are or slippery curvy bland shapes. The rear pillar on the CRV is AWFUL with the curved rear window and that dash board is terrible.......OK I am biased but who cares! At least the Freelander has a decent interior and a definate exterior style....not to mention offroad ability

Sorry, but look at the front end in the third picture, just how bad is that, what where they thinking.

No matter how many you see and how long they are on the road that front end will never be good. Why was a picture of a CRV without a description posted anyway??

I drove both freelander and CR-V. I must say the CR-V has a more stylish interior than the FL.
My first choise was a freelander, after having a d3, but when I found out the price I started to favorite the new outlander, then my eyes fell on the cr-v.
Freelander: very disappointed about the interior and mainly the price.
Outlander: too noisy above 2800rpm and poor finishing of the interior
CRV: nice car, well specced, price acceptable - only disadvantage is that it's made for the road. But if you have a LR discovery in the garage, you mainly want a car that is cheaper to drive. For the bad roads here and the tough winter, the crv will perfom exellent.
So I ordered the CRV top executive....

See Pelyma, I took your advice and tested the mitsu AND the freelander. And I forgot about the mitsu.
But in the end I choose a soft-roader with a better price but the same on-road properties as the FL.

Another thing is, I don't want to drive BOTH cars two hours to the nearest decent service. For an execptional car as the discovery is, i am prepared to do this, but not for the freelander.

Freelander price is its problem I'm afraid, it is a bit steep, but if you are a badge 'snob' you will pay it.....
