2003 Land Rover Freelander SE review from North America
"Don't waste your time and money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sunroof has been replaced 10 times.
Window motors have been replaced 4-5 times.
Intake manifold replaced.
Most recently car died in middle of freeway and fuel pump had to be replaced.
I have spoken to several owners of 2003 Freelanders and they all report similar problems with their vehicles.
I will never buy another Land Rover and I urge you to be aware if you are considering buying this vehicle.
General comments?
This car is cute and handles well when running, but generally is a piece of crap.
