yes
There is no such thing as a 1.8 TD4
the 1.8 is a K series Petrol and the TD4 is a 2.0 Doozil :rolleyes.
oh - and yes - Rave - look in the Q's and A's section.

Wot Darmain says. DON'T, DON'T, DON'T buy a petrol Freelander. only buy a 2 litre diesel model either the 1997-2000 Rover L-Series engine model or the 2000-2006 BMW Td4 engine model. Rover engine is simpler, a little slower & less refined but bombproof as long as you change the cambelt regularly - BMW engine is more refined, a little faster, has a timing chain but is sometimes let down by sensors & pricey injectors failing but basic engine is also bombproof.

Give some details like price, mileage, year, condition, service history etc. & the guys here can advise on whether it seems to be a reasonable buy. Also check Autotrader & ebay to get an idea. Some people are unrealistic in what they expect for their wagons.
