New Cars
Good: The ultimate 4x4, simply unstoppable off-road, body panels easy to replace, improved for 2012 with new and more refined 2.2 diesel from the Freelander 2.
Bad: Crude and noisy compare to a modern car, cramped driving position, not suited to motorway or town driving.
Good: Now has the 3.0 litre V6 diesel engine it really needed, still unstoppable off-road, classy image, refined and high-quality interior, more power and lower emissions from 2012.
Bad: Prices creeping up to Mercedes GL levels, other 4x4s this size are better on road.
Good: Huge improvement on original Freelander, excellent 2.2-litre belt cam diesel, incredibly good off-road, robust interior, more efficient 2WD model introduced in 2011.
Bad: Not as sharp on the road as other 4x4s, diesel automatic is thirsty.
Good: Sophisticated image backed up by superb refinement, luxurious and stylish cabin, feels well built, excellent off-road ability, carries more status than most rival 4x4s.
Bad: Not cheap to buy new, doesn't handle on-road as well as other large 4x4s, slow steering and sometimes a lot of weight transfer.
Good: Sleek looks, high-quality interior, 2WD three-door Coupe has sub-130g/km CO2 emissions, also available as a five-door.
Bad: Top models are pricey.
Good: Soft-top version of the desirable Evoque, could be on sale by 2013.
Bad: Technically still a concept to gauge public reaction.
Good: The best-driving Land Rover, still very capable off road, TDV8 is strong and smooth, 3.0 TDV6 a genuinely sporty decent drive with excellent steering.
Bad: Petrol heavy on fuel, 2.7 TDV6 is a bit lacklustre.
