What have you done to your Freelander today

Fitted a new aftermarket MAF officially 100% sorting the Freelander in this particular moment in time. EVERYTHING WORKS! recon VCU, recon injectors, new heated screen, aircon, new brake lines, new tyres, new bushes, aftermarket parking sensors with the correct angle kit, MG mirror mod, sun shades - £3.5k spent on it last year on top of overpaying for the car in the first place - yes I know I need my head examining!

138K miles on it and I am lucky owner 13 !!!

Immortalising this moment here for everyone to see - yes it is possible to have a really sorted Freelander!

Every problem on this car can be solved easily - all you have to do is throw unjustifiable amounts of money at it and it will be 100% for at least a certain amount of time!

Thanks.

No no no..... This is all wrong... You've broken your Freelander

The engineering on these includes a very important feature - the SDR (Self Destruction Regulator). This module ensures that as soon as anything is fixed, something else breaks - the beauty of this design is it gives you a very close and personal relationship with your car. If you've ever got it 100% working then you must have broken your SDR module

Luckily it can be easily remedied... The SDR can be reset by driving vigorously over rough and uneven terrain for a few hours on weekends until something breaks.

I work around the SDR by not fixing broken bits I can live with.

The SDR monitors that there are broken bits and therefore waits for them to be fixed before breaking the next bits.

So I never have any serious problems with my Freelander

Brought one home (after a 20 year break, from a 50th, not from a FL1)

I've had an 98 XDi 3dr in rioja L series, a 99 50th 3dr L-series (ex-duckworths demo), a kalahari TD4...

The 50th will keep my td5 company, but i'm tempted to just put it in the living room

Nice, don't recall seeing may D2's that colour.

Cracking motor.

The D2 ain't to shabby either.

Replaced El Cheapo front drop links with APs heavy duty jobbies.
Completely shut up the thud, thud that was getting worse.
However….. front near side tyre is down to 2.6mm.
