    Hi. Can anybody tell me what is the best cycle carrier to fit on a freelander (03). I seem to be having trouble tracking one down. I like the idea of one that fits over the spare wheel. Thanks in advance PIMackenzie

    gear linkage td5

    Hi all I am having trouble finding 3rd gear when I'm changing up & down the box. When you go from 2nd to 3rd, should the gear lever spring over so you can select 3rd with just a forward movement.When the gear lever is in neutral it sits between 1st & 2nd. any advice would be appreciated Cheers
