FREELANDER 2

2006 TO 2015

A BIG improvement on Freelander 1. The towing capacity is just 2000 kg compared with the 3500 kg of bigger Land Rovers, but it’s a worthy alternative to a Discovery. Lack of low-range and ground clearance prevents hardcore offroading, but it is still competent in the rough. Reasonable on fuel and with a decent-sized boot, too, there are no rust issues and it’s ultra-reliable. Residual values are falling now it has been superseded by Discovery Sport. BUYER'S TIP: An economical and trouble-free buy. SPECIFICATIONS 2.2-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel, 150 bhp, 295 lb-ft torque. Six-speed manual gearbox with optional stop/start (ed4) or six-speed automatic. Permanent four-wheel drive.
