Which one is the best?
I can see some writing underneath but it's blurry on me phone:oops:

The one on the right here is a better picture easily identified by the board at a 90 angle to the main one
you can also fit a separate remote switch for about £10 that will stop all signals, i can post details if required or there is Martyuk`s fob fix receiver for about £80 when he gets back from NZ both are cheaper than £300 for JLR`s receiver

Home..what a day! M6 gridlocked, boiling hot, no water left to drink.
Gearbox works forward and reverse anyway, drove on and off the trailer no problems. No battery on it when I arrived to pick up so I stuck my campervan battery on and it fired up straight away.
Doris has polished the mould off the dash, well, all interior plastics had mould on.
Spent 1/2hr looking over it and initial observations are,
Missing wheel nut found(locking) plus the lock nut tool and a plastic franger that I now know is used to take the shiney cap off the locking nut. Jack is present, spare wheel isn't.
Water in spare wheel well.
Numerous plastic trim clips missing.
I have cup holders.
Narrow rear seat is down and won't go back into the locked position.
Boot load liner is not for this car but sort of does the job.
Both rear silencers are rotted but the middle silencer might be ok.
Both rear tyres are bald on the inside edge only.
Parcel shelf is tatty/broke I think,
Only 1 key of the 3 works the remote CL but all 3 lock/unlock with the key.
Driver's seat works electrically not tried passenger. Battery terminal clamps don't tightern ( they said they just hammered them on)
All looks ok and unmolested under the bonnet. Funny switch fitted in the headliner above front passenger seat.
Drag link bar looks bent but unsure if it's supposed to be dead straight.
This is what I think has happened.
Car has bashed a kerb wreaking a front wheel, wheel wanged and spare fitted, carried on driving with bent rod throwing the tracking out which scrubbed the front tyres. Rear tyres fitted to the front with the scrubbed edge tyres fitted to the rear inboard so less easy to spot then chucked on eBay.
Lots of stuff still to check but still pleased thus far:cool:

Looking good!
Drag link is £45 with new ends, mid box I had was £38 apart from the gleam is still like new after few years (BP back box I fitted same time hasn’t fared so well),

probably about £40 on fir tree clips and tangs too :p:D

All sounds normal and minor apart from the water in boot, that’s either the boot seals or rear quarters won’t be much. L322s have big issue with this P38s not so much. There is a plug at the bottom you can remove help dry it out
 
Mr sporty?

Mine has the twin rear pipes, got the landrover logo on too.
Connecting the battery and disconnecting it doesn't appear to upset anything that I've discovered so far. Radio still works without a code although when we played with the sunroof it wouldn't shut again even though it did on the viewing. I found the spekle key in the tool kit so wound it back manually. The Doris and I (gotta talk proper English now I have a posh car) fiddled with things when it went dusk and found lots of stuff seemed to work like stereo controls on the steering wheel, it's got resume on it also so cruise control?, All lights work including fogs, number plate light was full so I've removed that and one lamp gone and the lens had blocked drain holes and were covered internally with green slime, bit fiddley but cleaned them out with hot water and cotton buds. Loads of pine needles around the tailgate aperture along with more green slime. The Doris is cleaning her up and it looks and smells much better. I'm making biodiesel today so not had a chance to investigate anything else much.
Still happy:):):)
