The Appeal

Compact SUVs are everywhere nowadays and we'd wager the Land Rover Freelander was one of the first. It was a trailblazing car in many ways, starting life as a body-on-frame off-roader; a bite-size Discovery, if you will...

Here we have a very special example. This KV6 petrol-engined Freelander 1 has covered a mere 27,169 miles during its 23-year life. The vendor, a collector of rare Land Rovers, acquired the car in January 2024 and has since driven it just ten miles. Their plan was to keep the Freelander as a long-term investment, but now needing to fund the restoration of another vehicle, offers it for sale. It's previous registered keeper used the car very sparingly for the occasional weekend drive, and in line with the ultra-low mileage, it's is superb original condition.

Whether you're a collector, an enthusiast, or someone looking for an increasingly sought-after modern classic SUV, this Freelander is worthy of serious consideration.
