Welcome to the forum.



It looks nice, I like the black on silver - I think it gives a nice contrast to the black - probably nicer than all black.
As for fuel consumption, I've found mine to be like most Suzukis and that is fairly frugal. There are a lot thirstier motors out there.
Give it a good test drive before parting with notes, I gave mine a really good run and the next day it turned out to be a smoker. :(
If you have wobble do the wheel snatch test and look at the (front) axle ends for leaks to see if the king pin bearings need doing. I think they are the Achilles heel of these vehicles followed by the rust in the jack storage compartment.

Just noticed you had a Freelander. I know a few peeps who swear by them and they all say they drive like a car.
