New Car: 2013 Land Rover Freelander Black & White Edition

A special-edition version of the Land Rover Freelander 2 has been revealed.

Starting from £22,495, the Black and White Limited Edition is £1,205 cheaper than the model it’s based on. It takes the S variant – whichcomes with a start button and an eight-speaker stereo with DAB as standard – and adds LED running lights and a gloss black grille, side vents and door handles.

There’s also  set of 17-inch alloys and privacy glass to match the Santorini Black or Fuji White paint colours that give the limited-edition model its name. On the inside, it gets black leather trim as standard and Bluetooth connectivity.

Buyers can choose between the front-wheel-drive 148bhp 2.2-litre eD4 diesel with a six-speed manual, which returns 47.1mpg and 158g/km of CO2, or the four-wheel drive TD4 that's also powered by a 148bhp 2.2-litre turbodiesel. The latter can also be fitted with an automatic gearbox, but returns its best of 45.6mpg and 165g/km of CO2 with the six-speed manual. All models are equipped with stop-start as standard.

Just 600 of the Freelander 2 Black and White Limited Edition will be built, with the eD4 starting at £22,295 with the TD4 priced from £23,495. For more details click here.
