That sounds like it might be the fuel-burning heater.  A few of the Freelanders had them as an option I seem to remember.

Yeah I saw that LR did Eberspacher type heaters as an option, these are similar to night heaters used in trucks, and can be used on a thermostat and left on all night. They run off the fuel from the vehicle, so when they ignite they cause some smoke while they warm up. Hope that helps?
