We live in the Scottish Highlands and need four wheel drive for the winter. When the Freelander was first mentioned I thought that it would be ideal but the price was just too high.
We eventually bought an XEDi station wagon which was a demo vehicle with just over 5,000 miles on it.
I have to say that it is fantastic. I get 36-38 MPG and it copes with our long, steep and winding drive in the depths of winter with thick snow and ice which my previous Defender 90 couldn't always manage.
It is more car like than anything else in the Land Rover range which my wife finds easy to drive.
The only niggles I have are minor. There is no one-touch open/close on the electric windows, no low fuel light and no height adjustment on the drivers seat.
Would I buy another...yes without doubt.
