Hi ya, they say if your Land Rover doesnt leak then its got no oil in it.
If it does leak, then it stops your drive from rusting.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Land Rover owners.

think the site is fantastic, very helpful indeed

keep it up people

I'm 14 miles from Hereford. Folks who live around Herefordshire should know where I am

I got 1.8 GS Freelander (wish I had a diseal engine though but the petrol engine is a couple more quid to run so its not the end of the world), Monte Claro Blue (really nice when washed) and a bull bar (which is rubbish cos' its plastic and now bent because of some pillick sat on the bull bar in the car park once he was chatting for hours with his friend).

MILANO ITALY,Horrible place.
Not much Landy stuff goin' on here Guys!
A few mad Defender drivers who do serious offroading,and a few of us Disco Drivers,more 300tdi's than Td5's,no way hozay will you find any V8's,they've all got Rangie Sports over here,coz it's Posh to ave one that's why!
No culture at all,only a couple of dedicated groups towards older Landies,NO way near what goes on in UK!
SAD really for us ex pats who want to live a little British heritage over seas!
Can't even get a pint of Bitter!
