Been for a test drive and loved it, just the reliability to think about.

Designed by different people, built in a different factory, no parts in common.

where is it being built?
where was the Hippoo built?

Davec · Nov 4, 2007

Hippos are built in the wilds of Africa, in game parks, in zoos....
The Freelander 1 was built at Solihull
The Freelander 2 is built at Halewood
