Evening all, well after a brief chat with my neighbour last night I learned his 75 year old brother wanted to sell his 53 plate Freelander petrol. It has a new M.O.T. had its belts and head gasket changed, good tyres and 94.000 miles, its covered only 800 miles in the last 3 years!
"how much?" I asked. 1,000 he said, so said oh I will think about it.
So after dinner I mention it to my other half, and next thing I know I am on the auto trader, to get a feel of prices etc.....then I am on youtube watching off roading videos.......
So tonight after work, I find myself going for a test drive in the freelander, and I like it, when I get back I asked how much did your brother want again?
Well he would take £800, he said, and thats it, I bought it, and now I have a Freelander sat on my drive, thats what happened, and now I find myself on a Land Rover forum!
Weird what a brief chat with your neighbour will lead too........
