2000 Land Rover Freelander XEi - 5 Door review from Australia and New Zealand
"Alright if you have a good bank balance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Very little has gone wrong.
There was an incident where the Fuel Cutoff switch would engage for no reason
Reverse gear is a pain to find.
CD player will turn the volume up for no reason.
General comments?
The car is comfortable to drive.
Expensive to service and keep on the road (Insurance particularly).
Not a bad car, but I do not think I would buy another purely because of the ownership costs.
