Changed near side drop link. Quite a shock as it was a straight forward job, no hassle and took little time. The bitch is nice and quiet now, no knocking when going over bumps and a big improvement in driving.

It looks good, although would be better if it extended to the cross member in it's rearward edge.

Against my ethos, but have a rusted out HSE that I bought for the trim and goodies. It has no prop and a seized pinion on the IRD HOWEVER, the engine and box with recent clutch and DMF are good. Around 115k.
Anyone interested please PM me. Colour Silver. 2004 model. Doors etc good too.
thanks. Hate waste !!!

Freelander 2 - Freelander 2 3.2L i6 for sale.
I have a 2006 Freelander 2 i6 for sale. This is the top spec HSE model, which comes with lots of equipment as standard, including heated cream leather seats, Logic 7, 14 speaker audio system, cruise control, PDC and so on. It's just past its MOT, and I've just done an oil and filters service...

Bought a new~ hish Freelander sport and I am overall very happy
rust is very treatable drives very well all things work but the air con !
good vcu gearbox driveshafts brakes all good but on the down side I now have a full drive
I did have some problems driving home a bad back light connector and as soon as I set off a hose split on the inter cooler
so a interesting 120m drive home
I am giving myself 4 weeks to rust proof and service the new one and Mot and sell my old one
before putting it on the road

Strange you should say that. The head gasket has gone!!
That's got to be up there hasn’t it. Over 300k of any vehicle is doing well, especially so with the hard working k series. I'm thinking it's had an engine change or 2 maybe?
Turbo vacuum pipe. This was actually a good point in this video:
Checked mine and the fabric around the pipe has lot's of tears in multiple points - it has done it's job. Turbo works as it should be so the pipe itself is propably fine still. Could be a good idea to replace the pipe sometime. I don't think I will reroute it though.
