I'm not sure about tire pressures for a TD5, I would imagine they are the same for all 110's.
For my 200 tdi, 110, According to the manual

Front: 1.9 bar = 28 psi
Rear 3.3 bar = 48 psi

Some people run the fronts with a high pressure but I find the above gives a smoother ride and less wandering all over the road and that's what's recommended in the manual.
Enjoy your drive. Have faith, they will get you everywhere. (eventually)

If you are running light (no heavy loads in the back) l'd put 38psi in the rear and 30psi in the front.

It will make for a better ride.

Hmmm, I have the same truck as the OP, and I run both fronts and rears at 30 psi. After reading the above I may adjust that.

The 300 tdi I drove t'other day had 60psi in rears? I have 35psi all round on advice, but might do sound research tomorrow.

265/75r16 is a standard size and Landrover state - front 28 & 32-40 rear....... I'm running 28 / 35 and this gives me the best handling on the road.
