Stay well away from freelanders mate they shite,u will pick a fourtrack or izuzu up for a grand.

i drive a defender gets every where i want to go. i've driven most others all got good and bad points. i will agree with pipi freelanders not all that good off road.

[shootlodge 143]

The pajero 2.8 is a good bus , for the money you cannot go wrong. driven light will do 30mpg, & with the difflocks will get you outa most sch*t with the right tyres on. £1000-1600 some jems out there. just wrong time of year for buying 4x4 !

Cheers for the replys, are u talking Lwb or short, I need enough boot space for a lurcher and ferreting gear, or yes and shopping and stuff, I like the trooper but I've only been past my test 2 1/2 year so think the insurance would do me for a 3.1, atb rc1

I have had a few over the years,Diahatsu it was an old one and was crap,Frontera 2.0 l sport pulled the horse box with a 15hh Cob no problem,Isuzu Bighorn 3.1 (import) M reg was a cracking tool both on and off road bit gutsy on fuel,02 +06 Freelander really good on and off road if I was to be a bit picky ground clearance could be a problem if you did any serious off roading

[rabbitcatcher 1 287]

Santons, I wouldn't be off roading as such just driving in fields shooting out of the windows and driving to setts with ferrets and stuff, also it would be my family car aswell, are the petrol freelanders any good, there seems to be some cheep ones about

Cheers rc1

diffs are hopeless on freelanders,they break incessantly, gearboxes can be iffy on rangers, 5th gear fails, id agree 3.1 trooper takes some beating, make sure the chassis is ok though,especially at the back end.

Cheers for the replys, there's a trooper not far from me for a grand, I will hav a look at it, are they 3litre and is there much boot space?

 

Av got 1 here pal if tha interested I only use it 1nce a week on a sat when I pick young en up,I bought it of mi gaffer it ad benn parked up for a yeari it had only done 4 hundred and someat miles from test to test it's no rust and not been abused its got a full set of spare wheels tax and tested,things that need doing to it r 4x4 lights on, but av tested 4wd and it works fine and diesel gauge not working the gaffer said it was temperamental maybe it might need a new sender unit or an auto electrition to look at it might be a loose wire,and starter motor started to go I think but it's never failed to start if any body interested pm please cheers
