Land Rover LR2
The successor to the infamous Freelander, the LR2 offers a shape that resembles its family members, but it’s a nice vehicle right down the line, with one exception: dubious reliability that worries any owner who dares to venture into the woods. It’s too bad since this is a well-designed vehicle that is fun to drive. What’s more, like all other Land Rovers, its off-road capabilities are impressive.
