I replaced this bit in the nearside door. Passenger door locked alright but wouldn't unlock on the fob or the switch inside. Only unlocked by opening door handle from inside. I got a "new" part off an old sacrificial 5dr freebie so had to swap over the handle cable but otherwise nice quick...

No worries... There was a lot more selection in the old days 😕

Hey neighbour 👋 not selling yet but just wanted to suggest taking a look at Silverlake salvage yard, you can poke around and strip off parts you want from cars in the yard. Last time I was there they had a couple of freebies with the blocks still in, might be worth a look?

Not an expert but depends on your lights is my understanding. Best way to be sure - at night time find a flat wall or similar, point the car directly at it and put the headlights on. If the shape of the light is flat at the top, then your lights don't need changing. If the shape of the light...

blasted yanks, attacking our heritage like that 🤣

Just to help clarify things, my Freelander is a utility vehicle, but we generally just call it a "ute" for short

I thought the title was a euphemism at first glance...

Thanks all, you've been most helpful. I'm not going to go ahead with the one I looked at - mostly seemed ok and fair priced but wasn't as tidy as I'd hoped, and also was a bit surprised to see some rust around the seat mountings. Wouldn't have been surprised on an older car but for a 17 plate...

Hello all, I'm considering a new car and I've found an option within my budget - a Disco Sport 2017, 2.0 TD4 SE Tech 5dr 7 seat, manual gearbox, with just under 90k miles on the clock. It sounds good on paper, so I'm going to go out and have a look at it later today. Just wanted to know if...

Ooh I likes that landy. Praper classic tratter.

If you're after an FL2 that looks good, I'd recommend something like this:

Ooh lalaaa That's the limit of my French.

Interesting, so as long as everyone that wants to use it makes some kind of donation however small and became a joint owner, then it makes it simpler on the legal side? I suppose it's just owners checking on their property then, right?

I guess I was thinking of keeping it quite raw and people enter at own risk etc, not make it an official thing, but you're right, there's probably a heII of a lot of paperwork if something goes wrong.

Ok ok, I've got a crazy idea that has occured to me before actually. This problem with offroading seems to be an ongoing issue, so why don't we club together, pass a hat round to get some pennies and buy an off road playground that we joint own? For example, here's 11 acres of woodland prime...

Plus, what's the fun in getting a car that's reliable?

Idk... Practically, absolutely no reason. On paper, the Honda makes more sense. But... I just like old land rovers. In reality they're sh!t of course... but somehow they've just got something about them. They're more interesting and they've got history and a bit classic and British and...

If you decide to sell (don't), let us know.... I've had half an eye out for a D1, might be interested.

Interior light behind the sunroof is working fine yep
