1999 Land Rover Freelander EXI hardback review from UK and Ireland
"Money pit on wheels"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed new cylinder head gasket at 32000 miles, at a cost of £850.00, plus tyres are showing wear as disscribed in other reviews i. e feathering back tyres and worn middles on front.
My user manual has a misprint of 2.1 bar pressure although Landrover admitted incorrect information they have refused to even contribute to new tyres, very unhappy would never purchase from Landrover again.
