So what do you guys think of the new Freelander from the preview pictures and the mechanical spec that has been in the press today? Can't believe the cheapest will be £22,000. that's taking it up market more than a bit, but then there isn't a 3 door any more.
Put more seats in it and you get a Disco. :-) Certainly looks similar from the front anyway, from the side it's like the old 5 door model.
Interesting engine choice available at the start, an all new 2.2ltr turbo diesel engine (but still called a TD4 though and developed together with PSA ) with 158bhp at 4000rpm and 297lb.ft at 2000rpm with a 6 speed manual, auto to follow, and a 3.2ltr petrol straight six transverse mounted (Volvo i6) with 230bhp at 6300 and 234lb.ft at 3200 with a 6 speed auto. One wonders if that new TD4 will find it's way into the Defender idc, bet the petrol doesn't in the UK.
