Hi all , as you know I have a mk 3 , however I am looking at buying a mk 2 [ 2003 1.9d] multispace for my other half. Her freelander must go. too expensive to maintain. It has done 85k, £2850.00, any thoughts? what should I look out for?
cheers

Electrics, electrics and electrics.
After that, check al warning lights come on when they should at start up (make sure nobody has covered them with black tape!!) and go out when they should.
Service history - a stamped book is O.K. but look for receipts - they confirm the story that the book tells.
Wet carpets anywhere. Locker and cubby hole covers present and functioning correctly.
Don't need to tell YOU this Pete, but noises from the suspension...........
And when you've done all this, check the electrics

Slanty back wheels (axle problems)
Wobbly filler cap (annoying)
It is on my to do list.
But not right at the top
