hi northern irelander the figures would be good thanks! hmm .. i wish i was handy with a spanner .. looks like another 'task' for my brother!! lol ive phoned a few places & been met with the '..ohh that will cost you ..' response - so its not really looking good at all! other than that...

she started overheating very badly.stalled. white smoke billowing from the engine, bonnet really hot to touch & even some of the hosing melted! The first time this happened I was able to top up the coolant, replaced the hose & got the car driving again but this time she has packed in...

Help! :eek: My freelander has officially died! The problem seems to be head gasket failure & now I think the engine has seized! Can anyone tell me is it possible to put a diesel engine into what had been my 1998 1.8 k series freelander? the body of the car is in mint condition Thanks!
