The LAND ROVER FREELANDER (1997-06) 3DR HARDBACK 2.0 TD4 S AUTO5 is a compact, three-door SUV for buyers wanting a higher driving position and a more capable feel than an ordinary hatchback. Its diesel engine and automatic gearbox suit relaxed everyday driving, while its short body helps around town. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 8 look-ups covering 6 different VINs, so these figures are a small snapshot, not a full picture of the model. In that sample, the average private-sale valuation is £700, recorded mileage averages 131,000 miles, and annual mileage averages 2,000 miles. Vehicles have had an average of 4.1 previous keepers. Against the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4, the Freelander stands out for Land Rover character and off-road confidence, though condition and maintenance matter in an older example. It suits couples and adventurous drivers seeking rural weekend trips, rather than families needing easy rear access.
