Taximark Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Big problems with it, a lot of engine problems i think the bmw engine is the better one but still problematic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Best not unless you are brave. I don't know anyone who has had one that was ok. Land Rover seem to invent new problems that defeat other manufacturers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squiggs Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Depends how deep your wallet is If you're confident to dive in the deep end from the highest board, and not to wear water wings, than by all means buy one..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyk68 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I was told when I took my Rover in for its infamous Head Gasket problem that the Freelander and the Lotus Elise both have the same K series engine that is so problematic. He didnt say what year these cars had the engine in though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RazorSHarp Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Some models also have the ability to wind the rear window down without warning and usually in your abscence. Land Rovers off all types also like to leak water in and then you'll spend thousands trying to find where from but with little success !!
