was8v Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Looking to buy an early (pre TD4 gen) Freelander as they are so cheap! However the interior colours are a bit challenging. I've seen this challenging combo: This is slightly better: Leather option: I assumed this was all the choice I had. The TD4 generation (2001 on) brought in this slightly toned down version: And the black cloth: Now I really want the black cloth interior (most practical seat colour, and less offensive acid blue in the dash) but I haven't seen any pre 2001 cars advertised with it! However this morning I saw a "W" reg 3 door in black with the black interior parked at work. W makes it 2000 - so has this car had an interior swap or was black available as an option? I know I need to consider the car mechanically as much more important than interior colour, but if I can find a nice car with black interior I would go for that. Does anyone out there know the interior options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I will have to put up with the interesting interior if I go down the early car route. That W plate freelander had gone by the afternoon so I didn't have a chance to get a good look at it, I suppose it could also have been a private plate.
