The Freelander is a good car, I've had two and thinking about going back to Freelander. I've speced one up TD4 XS in Mauritius blue with a few extras £31,725. A bog standard pure for only £730 less doesn't even come close spec wise.

The Evoque beats it on looks and handling but that's it.

I'm with you J77, at a point of no return for another 2 years with the Evoque, or cutting my losses now for an additional Freelander (2013 model), or current RRS or Disco 4. Can't see past buying a LR.

The Evoque is due it's service in a fortnight and I will be taken a loan car which is guaranteed to be a Freelander, hopefully a 13MY, so I will give myself an extended test drive.

I like the more traditional feel of the Fl2, higher seating position etc but I like the looks of the Evoque and how it drives. I just feel there is something missing from the Evoque and I don't know what it is.

Probably the Command driving position that the FL2 has.

Or the lofty greenhouse effect of the view out - like all the other Land Rover production except Evoque there is a lot of glass and it's easy to see out of them.
