    That's a very odd description. Haha

    I may have had a beer or two but I want a car that's a cross between an Alfa and Freelander. Or one or the other.

    I can see no potential problems down the line with you ever owning an alfa whatsoever. None

    I'd be aiming towards an Land Rover or a Alfa.

    But do you want something with the style of a Freelander and the power/handling of an Alfa or vice versa. What parts/characteristics of each do you want to combine?

    If you're looking for space, a high riding position but with usable power, I'd suggest a supercharged RR!

    And my hangover kicks in in 3,2,1

    BOOM

    @marcusm I drive a Freelander yesterday and loved the high ride and comfort.

    That's what I suspected, a high driving position gives a great perspective. However, if that was an 03/04 Freelander I'm surprised you enjoyed it. My sister in law has had one since 2003 and I find it horrible to drive (even when my experience was a 1.9 cdti Vectra) and of poor build quality. They've had lots of issues too. The Freelander 2 I considered buying but it did not have the power or comfort so I invested the same sum in an older fullfatrr.

    Dropped a little, There's a rather large speed ramp on kings inn street and i'd like to keep my underside intact, but, apparently all my talk of doing this is irritating some posters :rolleyes:

    But look how much it concerns me
