For a mondo style, is the tyres thing just as important or will it be ok to replace just front or just back as normal?

I recently went crazy so I bought a hippo to prove it. It's a 52 plate Freelander 1 ES, 2L diesel TD4. First question, where do I find the engine number? I'm presuming it's the BMW engine with timing chain but wanted to confirm it 100%. Second question, l I want to add some spots and an LED...

New here but just skimming through this project, amazing work, realistically you've achieved a lot in a very short time, so congrats! Really glad to see you're using a proper BMS too, Li-Ion batteries are giving us a lot of agro these days and we've been doing some fairly extensive research...

I've been meaning to ask the same question about my hippo, be interesting to know how you get on.

It's the place to be... Sunny, south coast... Vineyards, islands, boats, new forest.... Oh and Salisbury plains for all the offroading u could want 😁. Yep I'm a Hampshire lad.
