Freelander 1 Nudge bar, is it worth it

Alex1000 · Feb 15, 2023

Picking up a Rear Boot cover lid for a 3 door tonight. Seller has a nudge bar, which im not sure of taking or not. Looking £200 which seems abit on the high side. Is it considered worth that sort of money?

Worth it for what? It is mostly a styling thing. No idea what the going rate is for them, but I'd have thought £200 was a bit high. In my mind and without checking prices I'd expect more like £20-50.

A lot of Freelanders came with nudge bars and they don't really "break".

As such, breakers will probably have been storing them rather than selling them. So you'd expect to be able to pick 1 up cheap.

If you do, make sure you get the 2 brackets that screw to the 'metal bumper' and poke through the 'plastic bumper' - plus the bolts that go through them.

My A bar also has an extension on each bottom that got through the 'plastic bumper' and secured to the undertray bolts.

What sort? Factory plastic or aftermarket metal?
Neither is worth £200 second hand, even half that is too much.

The plastic one that bolts to front grill/bumper. Looks like original landrover. Took the rear shelf, didn't go with the nudge bumper....

Shipping my 2001 Disco 2 from the US to the UK questioned if my steel bumpers were allowed as US customs considered it was a bullbar. I had to drive an hour outside of Atlanta, Georgia to a well known 4x4 shop and have them sign paperwork that stated I had a front steel bumper installed and it was not considered not a bullbar.
