been looking for a freelander for about 4-5 weeks
going to pick a 1999 v reg 1.8i up in the morning with a complete new prop shaft (not fitted) head gasket done but that was never going to be a problem and new clutch fitted body work looks good will post some pictures when i get it home
been reading up on the forum on what to look out for and hope this one will be ok i will when the weather breaks be going all over it and anything that needs doing will get done
i have x2 mgf's and plenty of engine spares but hope i will not need to use any for some time
first thing on the list is engine flush from toolstaion a trick i learnt remove plugs poor 1/4 of a bottle down each cylinder leave over night to soak past the rings then turn the engine over for 2 -3 sec's replace plugs and go and drive for 50 miles before an oil change

Good for you mate. For those as know what they is doing, K series are a fine choice as the parts are cheap and easy to fix as you said.
