Hi.
I've been lurking for a while due to the wife deciding she wanted a 4x4 to tow our caravan with. As Freelanders had made the short list (Td4 diesel only) I had a good look around for reliability experience etc
Well, she bought one last night, from the local auction, Freelander Td4 Kalahari, in BRG, it's an auto with 74,000 miles on a 52 plate, checked the MOT history and it looks legit.
It's now sat on the drive awaiting her selling her current car so I've got a week or so to give it a good going over, looks like the oil needs changing, so I'll do that and all the filters.
From the time I've spent under the bonnet on it, it looks much better for engine access than my 75 diesel, so bonus there.
Besides the oil service and getting the 4 mismatched tyres swapped for the new of the same brand ASAP is there anything else I should be planning to do?
