    Freelander 1 Grey Smoke

    Changed all 4 of our injectors for recon units last year , got them from a place in Germany, sure they where under 300€ in all, I think 2 had a problem and as it has done 270 000 KM and was 18 years old, but as in good order (and is main car) it would be good to not have any other problems with...

    Freelander 1 Grey Smoke

    Freelander TD4

    This is a common problem with the Td4 many people buy a used fridge lorry and take the back off and uses this to keep the car in in hot weather, others use a car scanner and look for fault codes, or for things that are not correct like fuel low or high pressure problems?

    What do you think of this Defender

    It must have been if you click to show it relisted it is now 47 800 , think for anyone buying it there are a lot of questions, was it ever registered in France,? where there French CT's on it? and if used in a cold climate and the roads where salted it maybe good to check chassis very well for...

Si le...
