Hi Welcome
I didn't know if there really is one, but most people whom join, they introduce themselves first on the link below, then set off asking your questions, say what FL you have FL1 or FL2 etc.

You're supposed to say hello first in here...
landyzone.co.uk
Can't see the point much myself, but some get arsey about it if you don't.
Personally, I think its more important to just be polite and reply to answers and ultimately let people know if you managed to fix your problem and how or you got the info you needed.
There's loads of very knowledgeable people on here who amaze me at how much they know. Hopefully they can help if you are having issues with your Hippo.

Y'all so serious... If only I'd got to this first, I'd have introduced a yearly membership fee, explained about the pre-post handstand routine as well as the Nodge Tax. Also I'd have felt it my duty to warn him that Lord Hippo keeps feeding his nuts to his squirrels.
Welcome anyway

What's your first question going to be about your Fl1 do let us know. 
Handbrake replacement. I’ll check if there’s already a thread but my question is going be about the best replacement part to get as I believe original parts are obsolete.What's your first question going to be about your Fl1 do let us know.
^ This.
There is a lot of knowledge available here… there is also a fair bit of friendly banter on this site too, which sets it apart from others.
Once you get to ‘know’ some of the members, you can drop the politeness and just have-at-them

You should be aware that gaylanders are for hairdressers and homosexuals.
All gaylander problems can be sorted with a gallon of petrol and a box of matches.
@Hippo is chief gaylanderer and loves to groom new members.
Stanley Sir! is a dirty old pervert.
Don't go into Anything Goes if this post upsets you.

The rest of the Members on here get a bit jealous ‘cos bits don’t fall off of Freelanders.
They have lots of rust on their landies instead, to make up for their small appendages.

Unwisely, I read the last two posts while eating breakfast. I think that's the first time I've snorted an entire Weetabix out of my nose.

Must show naked images of your Landrover
As you drive a Freelander 1 especially with being a hairdresser vehicle.1. How many clients do you have when trimming their hair.
2. Are your magazines updated regularly.
3. Hairdryers rack at the rear must have health and safety certificate on display as you wear a hi Viz underwear.

Ahh. Issues.
Dave does engines.
Bill does transmissions.
Dorris does interiors.
Burt does exteriors.
You've met @GRATCH - he does tyres (he's the boring twit).
However, we don't have anyone that does handbrakes. We've been looking for a while, but can't find anyone. If you fix yours, then we have everything sorted.

What bits do you need ??
Shoes and adjusters, clips, springs and drums and cables are all widely available. As are hydraulic parts for rear brakes.
Just leaves the handbrake lever. I've got those in stock too

I thought OP was joking when he asked about handbrakes. Did they used to come as standard? Mine came with a couple bricks which seems to work fine. What's all this handbrake "lever" business?

When I use mine the brake drum sounds like a woman in Primark when her card is declined
