My opinion on all Landrover products is buy Japanese instead, unless you need to fill every weekend repairing your car.

That's just because you don't like Range Rovers.

I had three Freelanders before my ZT and would have another one tomorrow.

Preferably a V6.

Have seen loads of trouble with that funny CRV set-up. Rear whels engage when you need them weirdness. Mind you I'm in a very 4wd place, so perhaps when it is actually asked to do something......?
Also fuel consumption, not good on the petrol ones (is there a diesel).
