I’m not too bad with electrics. I hate the sensors 😂. False alarms or limp mode. My current car is focus mk2 07 TCDI and starting to fall apart. Rust and injector seals leaking. Replaced that but time to think about return to Landrover

Hi all. I’m considering returning to owning Landy but I’m in two minds either get freelander 2 auto or get defender 90. I’ve had disco 1 and defender 90 ex military. I’m now 50 and thinking of freelander 2 for comfort 😀 but are they easy to work on if breaks down ? In my head defender cos it...

Guys, need help to help decide. I used to have Disco 1 and military 90 defender before I sold all and moved to new house. Money talks. Anyway I’ve now decided to come back to Landrover. But which model is good ? It is Disco 3, 2.7 engine. Auto or manual gear ? Any tips or things to watch...

ah the older ones. I has disco 1 200tdi. It has sills and rear chassis something. I forgot. Replaced. Then two years later. I scrapped it. That engine was good. 275,000 still going. Now in defender to someone’s smiling face. It is shame they don’t build a new galvanised chasssis...
