Drove it a 90 mile round trip to collect a replacement bonnet. The original bonnet got badly dented last xmas eve, when a large tree branch fell onto it.
It's taken over 6 months to find a decent replacement.
The new bonnet isn't perfect but one close inspection neither was the original. At least the new bonnet doesn't have a large dent in it.
While I was there the guy (Wayne) help me swap the old with the new. This would allow me to take old bonnet home on the roof rack without the worry of damaging it.
Whilst at Wayne's garage I asked if he had a couple of extra bits the Freelander was missing. One was a driver's side splash shield and the cover plates for the wheel arch liners. He had the splash shield and a nearside cover plate on another Freelander which he removed for me.
So things were going well then I asked what I owe him, he replied £20. Bargain
So I was A happy bunny. I also made a good like minded future contact.
The bonnet is now all clean and while there I took the opportunity to clean the scuttle plate and remove the accumulated muck that collects underneath.

I see you have the lidl special roof bars......
I have the same bars at £30 a pop I bought 2 sets one for the hippo and one for the rav....
I have a exodus roof box attached to one set and they fit fine......
For the money they are really good quality....I think so any way. .
Built my hippo a driveway in the last week
