All cool. Remember, FL1 and 2 for that matter are not 4x4 in the true sense, that say a Disco is. They are FWD with a get out of jail card!
TBH the get out of jail free card was the main appeal. I was looking for a Discovery Td5 for myself but then the bad weather came and we both realised how bad the wife's vectra tdci Sri was on the skippy roads. It was about as graceful as a fat chic on a treadmill. So the vectra went and we opted for the freelander as er in doors will be the main driver. I'm happy with the car I just like to make sure on things as reading post after post seems to get quite contradictory at times. Bloody good forum though. By far the most helpful I've used.
Yes indeed, many opinions, lots of solid FL experience. A mechanically fit FL1 works remarkably well on snowy roads, that is beyond question!

I was lucky enough to test that on an icy / snowy little hill at the back of my brothers flat when we bought it last Saturday. Even luckier was the decision to take the car Saturday instead of Monday as we had originally arranged as the guy at the garage parked our vectra in the space the FL was in and a scaffold tower fell on it a few hours later.
