2010 Land Rover Freelander 2 Sport

The Rover — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 14:11:59 +0000

It’s a long title, and a sexy ride – fans in the UK looking for a smaller, more fuel efficient (and cost efficient) Land Rover rejoice! The 2010 Freelander 2 Sport is headed your way. LR’s Freelander 2 Sport will be powered by a 2.2-liter TD4 diesel engine with 160 horse power/400 Nm of torque. There are no performance specs released as of yet, but an average Land Rover Sport will hit 0 – 60 in about 10.5 – 11 seconds, topping out at 112 mph. Not bad for riding on 19-inch diamond-turned alloy wheels. The Sport’s got a fuel consumption rating of 42.2mpg with the standard six-speed manual, keeping the eco-geeks happy.

Both interior and exterior styles are available in two-tone gray/black. Land Rover also offers a sport styling package which includes revised front and rear bumper fascias. We love the interior Sport logos on each head rest.

The Freelander 2 Sport goes on sale in January 2010 with a base price of £26,695.

With stylishly integrated LED daytime running lights STARTECH lends the Range Rover an even more striking appearance and further improved active safety. The light inserts come in the same color as the door handles and the front grille, eliminating the need for costly painting.

The new STARTECH Monostar IV light-alloy wheels are another eye catcher. The five-spoke wheels feature a beautiful combination of grey and polished surfaces with a matte lacquer finish. The size 10Jx22 wheels are mounted with high-performance tires in size 295/35 R 22 front and back.

A Land Rover For All Seasons

The Rover — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 15:05:45 +0000

When you hear the name Land Rover you may picture a rugged automobile pouncing through a wilderness landscape or climbing up a steep cliff. You’re mad, cars can’t climb up mountains!? Oh, really – we think this video may change that perspective.

Needless to day the Rover name has become synonymous with extreme off-roading adventures. You can take your Range Rover through the deepest jungles of Africa, or your Freelander through Death Valley. Your Land Rover will take on all seasons and all forms of weather. Much like the Postal Service – “Neither rain nor sleet.” Below are just a few examples of how bad ass a Rover can be.

Is it cold out here? Must be our imagination.
