Hi guys

Thank you for your comments they are all appreciated.

I actually wanted to paint the arches and bumpers matt black, but the car paint shop guy talked me into the satin black, lol.

Thanks for the comments :)

The paint on the arches and bumpers is holding up very well.

I did my speaker covers the other day exactly the same, there a company on eBay selling leather handle covers also as mine are tatty I think I'll spend the 20 quid and get some as I can't seem to find any black ones in good order..

Yeah I think the speaker grills look better in black, I've still got to do the rears.

I'd be interested to know what you think of those door handle covers when you get them, may purchase a set if you think they are ok.
 
While on our travels around Cornwall we stopped for a coffee at Hells Mouth Cafe at Gwithian.

Well just returned back from weeks holiday to Saint Agnes in Cornwall. We covered 820 miles and from what I've calculated she's done 39 mpg and never missed a beat the whole journey, well happy with my Freelander.
 
Hello all.

What kind of miles has your Freelander done?

It seems to travel well.

And look well.

Cheers
