Description
Offered for sale is my dads 2004 Land Rover Freelander 1. It's the 2.0l TD4 diesel HSE model and has covered 110873 (mileage may increase slightly) miles. He's recently downsized cars so no longer has a need for it. The MOT is until 16/09/2025 (asking price is reflective of this short(ish) MOT).
It runs and drives great, has a good MOT history has lots of service history and 2 keys. My dad recently spent a large sum (see pics) on repair works when he got it. This included the replacement of the VCU with a reconditioned unit, so the 4x4 works perfectly. It has a tow bar and full electrics (untested during our ownership). Being the HSE model it has a lot of toys including sat nav, Harmon and Kardon stereo, full leather, heated seats, parking sensors etc. Really good condition for it's age with only minor marks as expected.
With it being an old car, there's some issues as expected: The AC doesn't work (it was regassed so i suspect it's probably something more than just needed regassing). It smokes a little on start up and heavy acceleration. My dad recently cleaned the EGR valve which has made a difference. It's only minor smoke and probably as expected for a car of this age. Sunroof doesn't open - tries to but makes a clicking noise. The diesel pre heater whines and omits a little smoke, only noticeable when cold though. Been told by garage it's easy to remove/bypass. The lock for the tailgate is missing. It does open and lock fine, just no actual key lock present.
All in all a nice cheap 4x4, well looked after and ready to go. It's taxed, tested and insured so test drives welcome (please provide proof of insurance or i'll gladly drive). Cash on collection or bank transfer. I may be able to assist with delivery, but full amount needed up front along with cost of a return train ticket & my time :)
Please no group viewings, it doesn't take more than 2 people to view a car and no timewasters. It's priced low so no stupid offers please. Only reasonable offers will be considered. Thanks for looking.
