Opinion on Freelander

Well I am looking to change the car and considered an estate but tonight saw a Land Rover Freelander and next to it in the Ford Garage a Ford Maverick any comparision? any got either or the same type of vechile and would you reccomend yours?

The landrovers are reliable. What kind of area do you live in? ie Rural/Suburban
I ask this as I'd say you'd need to look at whether you'd need a 4 wheel drive workhorse or whether a large estate/people carrier would suffice.

Shoguns are Tops OR, the Range Rover :

Freelander is brilliant. go for it kazz

yep freelanders seem good cars, not a huge amount of room in the boot though, that would be my only critism, otherwise good looking reliable cars

we have a frontera LWB & it's fantastic.
Freelanders are nice too!

The Freelander is nice, although I prefer the Isuzu or the Grand Cherokee. If I had 55 grand to throw around, I would go and buy a Hummer (think that's what they're called)

Freelanders are anything but reliable, Landrovers are rated poor for reliability by The Consumer association, Dealerships are rated as poor too, certain parts are in short supply due to the high demand for them because of failure.
The only Landrovers worth their reputation is the Defenders.
The Maverick is basically a Nissan Terrano, so has to be the better car.

you could aslo have a look here Kazz.

all diesel Freelanders are fitted with BMW engines now, very reliable.. & also very economical...

I've had 2 Toyota 4 runners & one Toyota Landcruiser Colorado, the Freelander is a much better car...
