Used 2004 Land Rover Freelander Consumer Reviews
Sonny's review
Starts without any hesitation. Firm but solid ride and able to keep up with traffic during interstate driving. The Freelander handles extremely well in bad weather and poor driving conditions. A/C could be improved - it takes a while for the interior to cool.
satisfied with my landrover
i bought my freelander off the showroom floor, love at first sight!, it is my first suv and i bought it mostly for my dogs, who travel with me daily. all in all it is reliable. there have been some english quirks, but it starts up every day and gets me to work and i love the style and handling. the quirks have been, a recalled engine at 35,000 miles, brakes that squeal, it does go through brake pads quickly.but i am still satisfied with it.

Excluding safety, it's a great car
The only worry in purchasing this car is its safety record, which isn't that much worse than other cars in its class, but still not as good as a 4dr sedan. Besides for that, the car works very well and we have no complaints. It's good for people who like to ride high (in a SUV), still like to have a car that is nimble, yet don't need the cargo space of a larger SUV. The ride is a lot more comfortable than the Jeep Liberty, Rav4, etc.
Best in Class
The Freelander is hands down the best vehicle in the small SUV class. The V6 is powerful and is mated with a steptronic transmission which allows you to shift if you want to, otherwise just leave it in drive and go. There is also a sport option which allows for a more lively driving experience with increased engine revs. On the road the suspension is great and gives a smooth right. The steering is tight and responsive, similar to what you would expect in a BMW sedan. The Freelander is excellent off road as well and can go through some rough terrain with aplomb. The driving seat is excellent and gives a great view of the road. Brakes are responsive.
FREELANDER SE3 WORKS FOR ME
FREELANDER IS MY FIRST SUV. AND WHILE NOT A LARGE SUV, I NO LONGER FEEL INTIMIDATED WHEN A TRUCK OR OTHER SUV COMES UP BEHIND ME. MY SE3 IS COMFORTABLE, SPORTY, SOLID AND GETS LOTS OF LOOKS FROM OTHERS ON THE ROAD.
