Land Rover Freelander L314 (5)

  • Hugely popular Freelander 1 becomes newest Land Rover Heritage vehicle
  • Over 9,000 individual part numbers available for best-selling compact 4WD
  • Rapidly became Europe’s best-selling 4WD vehicle for five consecutive years after launch in 1997
  • Land Rover Heritage specialises in cars, services, parts and experiences

Whitley, Coventry – 4 January, 2016: Produced between 1997 and 2006, the Land Rover Freelander 1 remains one of the brand’s best-selling models and is now officially a Land Rover Heritage vehicle. Land Rover Heritage specialises in cars, services, parts and experiences for classic Land Rover models and the Freelander 1 becomes the brand’s eighth Heritage model. The others are Series I, II and III, Range Rover Classic and P38 Range Rover plus Discovery 1 and 2.

A Heritage model is defined as those products that have been out of production for longer than 10 years and the Freelander 1 was first produced in 1997 and its production run ended nine years later in 2006 when Freelander 2 replaced it. Ever since production of Freelander 1 concluded, Land Rover continued to support owners through the supply of spare parts for this model line. Now, owners will be supported by the brand’s Heritage experts and ensure loyal owners continue to enjoy their vehicle for many years to come.

Over 9,000 individual Land Rover Heritage Part numbers are available for the Freelander 1 and it adds to the brand’s comprehensive parts catalogue, which already features over 33,000 items for both Jaguar and Land Rover Heritage vehicles.

Tim Hannig, Director, Jaguar Land Rover Heritage, said: "With the addition of the Freelander 1 as a Heritage model, Land Rover is reaffirming its support and commitment to its loyal customers by providing exceptional cars, services, parts and experiences for models more than 10 years out of production. Genuine Land Rover Heritage Parts for Freelander 1 have been engineered and tested in extreme conditions. As such it gives our customers total peace-of-mind that their vehicles are maintained to the highest possible standards."

When it was launched, the Freelander broke the mould by pioneering the compact premium 4×4 class and at the time had 16 patented features including Hill Descent Control (HDC), Immediate Reduction Drive (IDR), a viscous-coupling (VCU) and an innovative ABS system designed specifically for off-road situations.

2013 Land Rover LR2 / Freelander 2, A Family Resemblance

LR_FL2_13MY_Detail_230812_36LR_FL2_13MY_Dynamic_230812_13LR_FL2_13MY_Detail_230812_54LR_FL2_13MY_Interior_230812_48LR_FL2_13MY_Detail_230812_38

More visual and technical updates that bring the entire family closer together.  I’ve never minded the LR2, I’ve only driven them as loaner cars.  And they were clearly old school plastic interior Land Rover.  This latest round of updates is great, but unfortunately just makes me realize how close it is to the Evoque and how much better it could be.  But either way, it’s all coming together, great job LR!!

I secretly kind of wish they’d “float the roof”, just sayin’
