\"55049lrover\"<\/a> Land Rover has rolled off the 100,000th Freelander 2 less than two years after its launch in July 2006.<\/p>\n

The 100,000th car is a Rimini Red 2.2 Diesel Auto which will be delivered to its Russian customer in the city of Surgut, located on Russia’s Central Siberian Plateau. For the carmaker this is good news and an important milestone for the company when future looks rather gloomy. <\/p>\n

The Freelander 2 has won global praise from professionals and won over 10 international industry awards since launch including the What Car? Compact 4×4 of the Year Award, Top Gear ‘SUV of the Year’ and ‘Best Small 4×4’ at the Business Car awards. Without a doubt, the second-generation\u2019s success helped Land Rover to achieve is best year ever in terms of sales last year. It is popular in emerging markets such as Russia, China and the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Thomas Klein, Operations Director at Halewood said: "The 100,000th Freelander is an important milestone for the plant \u2013 Freelander 2 helped Land Rover achieve its best ever sales year in 2007 and has won several major awards in its first 12 months in the market place. Freelander is continuing to perform well in traditional Land Rover markets such as the UK but sales in emerging areas like Russia and China are also growing rapidly so it’s entirely fitting that this car is destined for a customer in Siberia. \u201c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
