    What to look for when buying my first Landy ?

    But all the Discos seem rotters and high as hell ileages, thats why i added Freelanders in. And diesel is what i'm trying to find. I guess i'll have to try the search box again although it brings up a lot of irrelevant ****e :(

    I have £2000 to spend on my first 5 door Land Rover (if it has leather its a bonus). I was wandering what would be the best one to go for ? I have been looking at Freelanders and Discoverys as i know 110's and Defenders are out of my price range (Await the slagging Freelanders aint real 4x4s...

    Whats the average mileage on K Series and V6 Freelander head gaskets,clutches etc ?

    I knew that Rove's were bad for HG failure, but wasn't sure if it included the V6. If io can find one that been done, am i guessing its a lottery as to when it'll pop again ? i have seen a few in 2WD with no prop and thought it sounds iffy and something wrong. What is the script with the VCU or...

    What to look for when buying my first Land Rover ?

    Is it worth spending extra on leather interior and Anniversary models ?

    Ok cheers mate. I guess i best forget about the leather interior and get the best one i can with the HG, Cambelt etc done. Saying that i have had a snoop on ebay and £400 plus for leather interior is a bit steep when you can buy one which is above a lower model for less than that. Ok cheers...

    Is it worth spending extra on leather interior and Anniversary models ?

    I am currently on the look out for my first Landy. I have been looking at Freelanders and Discos. To be expected some have better specs than others. I was wandering is it worth paying a bit more for one with leather interior ? Or can you pick it up cheap enough on ebay, forums and fit it to a...
