Freelander 2

[N12 JLK]

Lesley had one as a hire car and we both really liked it, called into the dealer in Stirling today and had a wee nosey. I liked it very much and have now started surfing the dealers looking at them, does this mean my Mini days are over or is it a passing faze. We now have the dog and the mini isn't really practical and I know I have a company car but its always full of samples and work goodies so its not practical either to empty all the time. Haven't bought one so don't worry.
What do you folks think of them, you get a lot of car for your money compared to the Mini especially with the deals on them as they are throwing them at you in this current climate.
Thought welcome.

We love ours. Practical, versatile, gutsy - a little thirsty as it's a petrol.

As we no longer have the dog issue, we're looking to shift ours on though....;)

My Grandad recently got delivery of his freelander 2. The deal he got was amazing. He got a td4 manual (cant remember which exact spec model)with sat nav, bluetooth, big alloys, good hi-fi system, various other extras which makes it much more loaded than a MINI and he got £7k off list after shopping about. It was a brand new car 09 plate he is first reg keeper and had choice of colour.
Ive no had a shot of it yet but might nip down to his next week for that reason.

Up to you what you want to do but I think you will take a bit of a hit with the MINI due to changing it so soon. Its up to you though what you do. Maybe after the run on Sunday you will have cleared your mind.

Sounds good Andy and would be full of toys but if I did get one it would be the new deisel engined ones . Anyway you could post the spec and pm me an asking price to tempt me.

You told Mr King and I when we changed to the one series that we would miss the mini and would be back in 6 months. You were right, so i'm going to say that if you change you will miss the mini and will be back in 6 months! :argh:

Apologies my mistake

[Craig]

this from the man who said he would never be without a MINI and that they would have to bury you in a MINI ? :Whistle:

You had the MINi before the dog, so not sure how what the process was when buying the dog thinking about how you transport it. . .

As Sedgie says, you can get a dog in the back... ;)

Seeing as how nobody will probably ever sit in the back of your repmobile why don't you cover up the back seat & make 'pooch' comfortable in there.
