    What money should I be asking?

    It's a beautiful motor. I've been looking at such things on auto trader for a while and similar vehicles are going for 20-30k there, however I don't know if they are selling or if they're the ones that haven't sold because they're too expensive! Personally I love it and would happily pay up to...

    I can offer "lifetime dry storage" for free in Hampshire. I'll need the keys and a week's notice anytime you want to use it to make sure it's dried in time.

    I had the opposite on a 2stroke. Idled but stalled when you tried to rev... First thing I did was pul the carb... Took it apart, cleaned it all nice, checked gaskets were seated nicely, cleaned needle etc etc... problem remained. So I looked at everything else, cleaned the fuel tank, and...

    Freelander 1 Mirrors...

    Thank you for this nugget, it fixed my loose mirrors too - did not realise the power fold even existed... However... I tried it a couple of times and then they locked right in 🫣 and it's all changing to smart motorways where I am so driving down a extra narrow motorway lane with 50mph average...

    Freelander 1 Radio compatibility problems.

    I replaced my stereo/radio for a Bluetooth version with a hands free remote that goes on the steering wheel. Like you, impossible to find a modern one that matches the old sockets these days so I just got a stereo that I liked and then bought an adapter for the harness. I've got a pre...

    So runs fine but stalls if you let it idle? If you got a manual choke on it, see if it idles on half choke - could be fuel filters?

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    No no no..... This is all wrong... You've broken your Freelander 😭 The engineering on these includes a very important feature - the SDR (Self Destruction Regulator). This module ensures that as soon as anything is fixed, something else breaks - the beauty of this design is it gives you a...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Well the freebie got through the MOT... Only comment from the mechanic was that after he had dug through all the mud underneath, he discovered some very light corrosion of the sub frame. Wasn't a problem but I asked him how best to prevent it getting worse and recommend cleaning it up and...

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Hi Andy, thanks again for the offer, I've checked the connectors and they look exactly the same, I'll try and DM you in a mo and we can sort the postage if that's ok 👍 Many thanks for the advice, I'll give that a go for sure 😁

    What have you done to your Freelander today

    Hello Andy, thanks for your help, they look perfect but I'll double check tomorrow to be sure. I don't suppose you have any heated seat switches as well so you? Passenger side has gone on mine so I've been keeping an eye out for those too but they don't come up for sale much.

    Freelander Spot Lights

    Blue face lift Freelander without fog lights... Grey facelift version with fog lights.... Am I missing something?

    Freelander Spot Lights

    Just trying to get my head around this as my freebie is pre facelift. The lights you want, are these actually spots or are they fog lights? I can see you've currently got fog lights on your Freelander but they're in a different place. But then in the pic you've shared of the spots you want...
