The knocking is probably the passengers in the back begging to be let out so they can ride in a real Land rover! :wasntme:

Mine is a 2007 with 160,000km and I have no knocking at all...but I haven't had the car for very long so I don't know much about it yet.

Hey! Don't be cheeky :p
I have a Classic and had a D2, now have the FL2 instead of the D2 and I love it!

Sad when people try to be funny and pull up short... ;)

Here's how Land Rover Australia themselves choose to illustrate the Landy's 65th anniversary on their FB page:

and in the email they sent me on the same promo today:

which, as we all know, is just a Freelander 2 with an overpriced and shortened body attached and "Range Rover" stuck on the bonnet...:D:D

Did you buy that Freelander 2 from the guy in Newcastle about 2 months ago?? (Just wondering)

If so, I bought my car about the same time, I've only had mine since about April.

So, is that why your in the Freelander 2 forum??:D

People knock to be let in, not out. They are Defender passengers trying to get in to sit in a comfortable seat. Check for desperates clinging to the back of the car...

Last time I saw it the odometer was over 205000km. That was 5 months ago, probably nearer 220000 by now.

Yes I did get it from a guy in Newcastle. I saw it on Gumtree. Did you look at it too? Black car with tan interior.

No, I didn't look at it but was on my watch list though K's were a little high. I saw the guy seemed desperate to sell which would have been in your favour. I ended up holding out and bought a HSE with Tech pack for $21,500 (127K on clock). Needed a little TLC but seems to be coming together well.

You happy with your purchase?? It seemed like a good buy to what I read, just interesting to hear your thoughts.
