In what way is the D3 worse than a Freelander? Reliability of the D3 is worse but it's a million times more complicated. Fuel economy on the D3 is also worse, but that is understandable considering the D3's size and weight. The D3 is much more expensive than a Freelander to maintain but it's in a different sector of the market. I can't think of anything else that makes the D3 worse than the Freelander tbh. Having owned several Freelanders and currently a D3. I can say that the D3 is a brilliant vehicle for basically everything you would ever need a vehicle of this type for.

Freelander isn't included because there wasn't enough results to include it in the rankings.

Your point is?

if there wasnt enough results that indicates that the companies they get the figures from ..and warranty direct is one..wouldnt have had that many break downs..another source is public...so again not enough complaints

So Lexus coming out as the best is meaningless then?

Yer talking out yer arse

I don't think some survey is going to get people to sell their cars!!!! It might help choose what they buy, but not a reason to sell. Anyway, I think there's a general assumption that Landies, and definitely including Freelander in that, are going to be toward the bottom of the list rather than the top. If they do ever get to the top, they'll probably have lost their character and enthusiast sites such as this will not have a purpose.... other than to determine what happened to MH370, legitimately view pics of boobies, and find out what size chainsaw is needed to construct a bird table.

They probably couldn't get one going long enough to do the survey.

Idiot - the survey was done on a Thursday and as everyone knows that is the one day of the week when Hairdressers stay open late.
So all the Gaylander owners were curling one out at the time, so to speak
