The LAND ROVER FREELANDER (1997-06) 5DR SUV 2.0 TD4 S REV 03 is a five-door 4x4 with a raised driving position and practical cabin. It brought Land Rover’s off-road character to SUV buyers, rivaling the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. Five doors and useful space suit families, rural drivers and those needing confidence on rough or slippery roads. The diesel works well for longer trips, and compact dimensions make it easier to manage than larger Land Rovers. It offers character, though expect an older-car feel rather than modern SUV polish. Mycarcheck recorded 581 look-ups covering 303 distinct VINs, a substantial sample for this model. Checks show an average recorded mileage of 142,000 miles and around 4,000 miles driven annually; the average is nearly six previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £1,200, so condition and history matter greatly when comparing examples. This Freelander remains appealing for affordable, capable 4x4 versatility.
