Yep. Water drips in and water drips out. :pound: Don't know why they put up with it. Praps they don't know vehicles can be built properly. Every time I see a tratter on the road I turn the heating to cold and tip water down me back as a mark of respect. :D

Lets the water back out!
Can't believe you guys are still trying to sell us the freelander.
If you like them so much go pop some 80's pop on in your fancy CD players and go for a drive in it round town :D
You spend all this time saying landrover a are equal then bang on about freelanders being better. So what, it's got four wheels, an engine, brakes and aircon. Fabulous darlings. My old Pajero had all that and it was ancient. Horses for courses!
We all like our defenders. I do 60mile round trip in mine everyday it does just fine. Some people like basic others like gypsy caravans. At the end of the day it's a functional item whatever badge it has on it!!!
 
We're just evening out some of the **** taking we're received over many years. Would take many years to catch up so don't worry. We could always kill oft this thread and post all over the tratter section instead or stay in ere if you prefer?

Am glad yer likes yer tratter.

Freelanders rule. :D

Yes it got a response, but its soooo daft the argument put forward is as flawed as the fox hunting one was.
In one breath you say all landrover a are equal!
In the same breath you say yours are better because they've got 'this suspension. Those brakes, and air con'
It's a blathering car, it's just personal choice.
It's no better or worse than the next gypsy caravan, but yes it has a better go at off road which is more than can be said of the other 4wd's in its category. But really it's a family saloon with useful capabilities and more comfort.
The defender is what it is a utilitarian vehicle unless Alive tuning have got hold of it the it becomes a 'refined' (their words) gypsy caravan too. :D

i've never said a freelander was better than a tractor. I merely highlight the pros and cons of each marque.

Erf you be nitpicking you personally may not have said it but the general consensus of the freelander owner has been to try sell the all singing all dancing gypsy caravan to the owners of a utility vehicle.........it's a little like land rover trying to create/replace the defender with summit else.
Even the bleddy puma has to much phaffage inside......and no air vents.....I always wanted vents! Some of us genuinely love basic functionality :D :D

Me thinks someone has read the whole fred. It's an interesting fred so I can see why.

We're happy to talk amongst ourselves but also welcome the tratterers to join us too. This fred didn't really start with a purpose but gained one as momentum followed. Promoting Freelandering to those who choose to abuse us. We have many things in common. We spend a lot of time fixing our vehicles, they're all made by land rover, we all like our own vehicles and take part in the 4x4 community.

Freelanders rule.

Then be comfortable with your cars and stop foisting them on the tractor lovers of this world, we're good as we are.

And read the whole thread? Bollox to that it probably says the same on pg1 as it does now ;)

Be comfortable in your cars........go get muddy of summit

If you were to buy a puma tratter then I think you'd be able to easily cut out some vents in the front. All it needs is one person to try it and tell theirs how to do it. It may be difficult to position adjustable flaps and mount them but someone will become interested and make you a modification kit so you can do the job easier. May not fit proper and will probably be difficult to stop leaks but that just means the mod will adhere to the usual traits of a tratter.

We dun't use hair spray. It's probably the air freshener I put in the bogs. Stinks in there so I thought it would freshen it up a bit.
