Hi,
My post asks the same question as DaRedFox's post "Should I or shouldn't I..." from 11-18-2007 below in this forum.
I'm looking at purchasing a used 05' Freelander SE3 w/25k miles for $14,900 (good deal or not?).
I looked at it on Friday 12/21/07 and it looked, drove, and sounded fine.
Dealer used vehicle check was A+ across the board (according to them and the used vehicle checklist sticker in the window) as well as the CarFax report coming back clean.
The only thing I noticed was a slight coolant smell when I popped the hood that the salesman attributed to "just ran it thru the car wash" ?!?!
After reading the many, many posts not only here but all over the web....I am very concerned that I may be stepping into a money pit if I purchase.
Does anyone have any advice or GOOD reviews of 05' SE3's?
Also, were the 05's and better built than previous years models?
Cheers and have a Merry Christmas!
~ Jeff
