First ever Land rover

Hi all

Well it's my first ever land rover..

Not sure if I'd ever had on. My radar but my other cars having issues do decided let's try something new

It's an 04 freelander TD4 HSE

Have only driven a few miles as its waiting final prep and will pick it up Monday but thought best get myself acquainted

Any suggestions or stuff to look out for much appreciated... Was heavily involved in forum for my other car so I'm sure I will get stuck in here soon enough

Welcome to the bast LR forum going.

Hold tight .

Well it's in the drive now... Some pics.. Bonnets up as checking fluids before any comments lol

You bought a Land Rover because your other cars having issues?!

Enjoy your new motor

I know there's bad things about the freelander 1 but so far I haven't found a perfect car and until I do I'll have fun trying

Everything seems to work without issues so I'll try and remain positive for now lol

Fingers crossed.... I'm. Sure there's plenty I'll want to do.. None of my cars have ever remained standard for long

Last one was full show car in the end.. But still daily driver lol

Quite a common site is a Land rover with the bonnet up - usually waiting a tow truck or repair by a garage
Welcome to the bankruptcy world of Land Rover ownership

I have had many P38s over the years and i say the same, just don't tinker with whats not broke is my moto when it comes to Land Rovers. I have seen more problems with people servicing or replacing parts that were working absolutely fine
