    Agreed about the string vest, it was an experiment that set me back a whopping 50p. but after a few days i came to the decision it looked a bit poo. As far as the tyres are concerned i also agree, the quality was a concern for me but there are some good reviews of them, and the simple truth is...

    That's exactly why i'm trying. I realize that I can get better off road performance for less outlay with a disco. But there are just so many out there. Go to any show and its 75% early discos with much the same mods. A Freelander that's had work done is a much rarer vehicle. That uncommonness...

    A few new mods over the weekend, I got my 55w spotlights mounted and wired up. Fitted the dog guard and mounted all of my recovery equipment.

    Ya, it was on there when I got it. But I kinda like it. I would prefer one of those Freelander ones with the mountains in the background. But probably not enough to actually change it.

Had 12 months MOT and 6 months tax. everythink works (exept the HDC as the wire has snapped on the gear stick). I needed to test it out, so what to do?...........hmm i know. Impromptu...
