2007 Land Rover Freelander 2.2L Diesel · SX07 ABF

As a 2179cc diesel, this Freelander will likely fall into a mid-range insurance group and tax band suitable for its age. Fuel economy will depend heavily on driving style and load, but expect typical diesel SUV figures for a vehicle of this era.

Maintenance costs for a high-mileage Land Rover can be unpredictable. While the MOT history shows no recent failures, the high mileage suggests that wear-and-tear items such as suspension components, brakes, and tyres will require regular budget allocation. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance, are expected to be moderate to high.

The most critical inspection point is the chassis and sills. You must look closely at the areas identified in the 2023 failure: the nearside rear and offside rear inner suspension component mountings. Ensure there is no active, flaking rust in these structural areas.

Secondly, inspect the suspension system. The 2023 record noted a fractured offside front coil spring; check the entire suspension setup for any signs of perished rubber bushings or leaking dampers. Finally, given the 178,662 recorded miles, check the condition of the drive shafts and CV boots, as these are common wear points on high-mileage 4x4s.
