I was thinking about burning the tratter. You could get a second Freelander then so you won't have the problem of her taking yours.

her taking my fender?are you pished

second freelander? too small hippo,only a defender will do,besides defenders cheaper and easier to fix than a freelander,bet a clutch on FS would cost a lot more than 300 quid all in with parts and labour

I think peeps pay around £600 on a FL1. Hopefully the warranty will cover the faults.

Hope you can get it sorted, but ever since the wogs bolloxed the world trade center things have been as tight as fishes bums warranty wise.

Sorry, i know i am only a "Unter Noob", but where the hell does the term "Tratter" come from?. It's not a rhetorical question.
