There's got to be somewhere that doesn't leak inside.

Don't be cos I won't be keeping it. The seller is coming up with excuses as to why the don't want to complete the deal now
It's not my fault nobody else bid on it

Send him a message saying you are picking it up, please provide address.
I had something similar and actually won the same item twice
But it disappeared and reappeared, got fed up didn’t bid 3rd time (which was actually less than my first winning bid )but reported it every time to E-bay cos the seller ****ed me off.

Thought about this logically.
Spiders MUST be waterproof and can swim. No other possibility.

You should drive it for a bit. Its never going to be the sort of tow wagon you need, I'm sure you'll really come out of the closet and like the vehicle.
Before you put it back on eBay, you should look to see about getting some roof rails. 3 doors without them look gay which is probably why you for it for the price of a Mars bar. If you can pick up a set (with all the bolts) cheap, you'll make a lot more moolar.
What's the shipping cost to NZ?

Not wishing to educate the rabble to much, but the Rover L Series diesel is by far the most reliable engine in Freelander. I'd then say followed by the Rover K Series petrol (so long as you consider the HG a serviceable part). The Kraut block comes in turd and the KV6 is a bit of a joke unless you're a purist.

Both diesels are about the same. Yer can't consider the petrol 1.8 betterer than a diesel. The head gasket issue is not a service item. Consider and compare other cars like a ford focus with 1.8 petrol. They dun't require the same gasket replacement our k series has and certainly dun't think of it as a service item. They dun't have anywhere near the failures of head gaskets the k series has. They have been around a bit longer than the freelander 1 and dun't have the same go anywhere oft road reputation, and hgf failing reputation anorl.

He'll be gutted enough to be selling his beloved Freelander. Eye think yer being mean to him. Offer him £20. He'll also be miffed at giving such a good vehicle away at such a low price. The 4 wheels/tires will sell for over £100 to start with.He's now emailed me to say it's that bad it's scrap
