Buying a TD4 3 door

Heya!

Im comming back to the world of the freelander have had a few years driving fast and great handling cars - none feel special though compared to teh freelander

So is the TD4 still recomended as the best engine? What should I look out for? Im actually buying from my local stealer has my parents have a very good relationship with them and I know they will do me well

Thanks

James

Wlcome jim!
Nice to see someone showin a bit of trust in the old hippos
TD4 all the way mate!

luuurrrvly

is it worth asking them to remove the injectors and check them b4 buying

wot warranty are they giving you?

thanks will do

standard land rover one i think for a used car

how worried should i be about reliability?

I am a student, and stretching myself to afford one..its it likely to dump its load all over my parking spot and leave me with a huge bill do you think?

who knows?
there are some horendous stories on here, but some peeps obviously like them.
All you can do is find out as much as possible and make your own mind up.
The diesels are better than the petrol models, but can still run up huge bills very quickly.

just test drove one today - abosolutly fantastic!

I LOVE IT!
