    £300 Freelander project! ... my first ever Land Rover

    Cheers, yeah hope so. I've got a theory on the tailgate issue as well. Neither the window nor the latch operate when bypassing the microswitch. I think that tells me is that it must be a wiring fault. If the window came down a bit but the latch didnt release then i'd think it was the solenoid...

    £300 Freelander project! ... my first ever Land Rover

    £300 Freelander project! ... my first ever Land Rover

    Hello! .... today I bought my first ever Land Rover! ... a 2001 Freelander TD4 3 door ... for £300!!! Am I mad? It needs a few things to get it back on the road. Mechanically, seems like only a front coil spring & missing its propshaft. It drives very well I think (my opinion based on having...
