The question is does your wife like working on cars. You only get the full Freelander effect if you fix them as well.

jist shoot him noo

It's a pity you didn't have a look through this Freelander section before buying, still you might be lucky. Apparently there are one or two petrol owners who've never had any problems, but for anyone else looking to buy - only buy a diesel Freelander.

Check your VCU every now and then, and check your cooling water level all the time !!!

I have a shopping list as to what can / will go wrong so i'll be making sure it is right before i pick it up. It's last owner worked for lookers so i'm hoping he was good at his job.

Thats just it tho aint it..... We like our Freebies and everyone hates a broken car! Though some perol owners are looking at replacing the 1.8 for a 2.0 Other than that just be aware of K series issues
