Hi, I’m Caz, recent convert, not sure how long I’ll be here due to the cost of owning one but will enjoy it while it lasts. Looking forward to the ride and thank you for letting me in…you may regret it. Kind regards x

Don’t suppose you know anything about how to find/enter radio code
Only ones are of the radio backing. I’m trying to find the correct code as the one provided by HQ is 4 digits and 5 is required so now trying to find info from serial no on housing but not as easy as it seems….aaaggghh! Learning that seems to be par for the course in this club…I assume thats why it helps to be nuts. Would take a pic now but my son has borrowed it briefly….and promised to put more fuel in than had so can’t turn that down…all donations accepted loldon’t worry Land Rover ownership is the first sign of madness as where all nuts, lol

They were referred to as a hippo by some top brass when they were new and it stuck. Most Freelanders are affectionately known as hippos but the true ones, as I mean, are the k-series versions.
