My thoughts exactly Laughing

Hopefully in 3-5 years when I look at the new one the testers (read that as buyers) will have found all the glitches for LR and prices will have levelled out - if I buy another Whistle

Actually considering 19" 15 spoke wheels as I feel they are more practical with the state of the roads and come winter Thumbs Up Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Rolling with laughter Would your wife find the FFRR too big?

I'm going to test drive an RRS (old version like yours) to see what they are like, and see if I'm prepared to part with my beloved FL2. Wink Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more... Twisted Evil

Swmbo refuses to drive ever even though has a licence and previously bought her a FL1 and a mini in the past so now run one car Rolling Eyes

She loves the FFRR so we would both have pleased the mrs Laughing

Having gone from MY10 to MY13 have to say the new one is much more like the vehicle I expected when I moved from FL2 to RRS Cool

Definitely a happier owner now Bow down

If you can stretch look for a SDV6 with 8 speed box Thumbs Up Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Muddy, did you press the button on the dash to activate the front sensors Question The fronts only work if you are in reverse or have just come out of reverse gear unless you press the button on the dash which is another one of L/R's hi-tech idea's Whistle

Is it me or is the front sensor button only a REALLY stupid idea Evil or Very Mad

I've just gone from an '06 where it did it automatically and its a pain in the Censored

Don't think it will be long until I drive into the car in the parking space in front waiting for the sensors to turn on automatically......

According to the dealer this was to 'solve' Whistle the problem of them going off when you are just stopped at a junction and a car drives past.

So far I know what I prefer............

Rant over. Rolling Eyes

Does anyone know if there is a 'fix' for this a la Bodsy?? 2011 Autobiography Santorini Black
