literally just sold my td4 this morning! Was a great work horse and super reliable, no matter what people say about the running gear.
Theres loads you can do to them to tidy them up a bit and quite cheaply too, and if you stick a 2 inch lift kit and some bronco diamond backs on there, you have a seriously capable off roader for some weekend fun - with no big diffs to worry about.
Seriously buy a freelander but get a td4 - you wont regret it. Just stay away from the 1.8 k series headgasket muncher. Can email you some detailed pics if you want a closer look at one i still got all mine on the computer.
