    Well, I got truily stuck (Pics)

    Yup, No ABS for me either, The more electrical crap you have on a freelander the more there is to break and go wrong. Its recommended that you go for the more basic models if you dont want to be spending a fortune on repairs.

    run in with ice and then a bank

    Make sure you come off the brakes before you go down a gear or it will maek you stals and send you down the hill like a bobsley like it did for me this morning :doh:

    Freelander Alarm

    if you tried to open the boot in the snow and found that the window was frozen closed it will cause the beep, you need to unstick the rear door, open it and close it again and you wont get a beep, the beep means something is not closed properly.

    Nope, Nothing, a few small scratches on the front bumper but as it's plastic the scuffs will go with some back to black bumper (if i ever bother with it), I was amazed as i was sure something would be broken, smashed or bent, But there was nothing, i just drove it for 30 minutes to work with no...

    Still only got front wheel drive as the VCU has gone on my Freelander and the garage is waiting for a new one to be delivered, While coming down a country lane it started to pick up speed, i dropped it down a gear but brought the clutch up too fast and stalled, Lost breaks and steering became...

    Hertfordshire Lanes?????

    Great Pics carpy, Lots of 4x4s out today, Driving smugly around all the parked up cars, Lots of Mitsi Pajeros driving about as well. Even freelander drivers had smug looks on tehre faces today. I had a M3 behind me if that counts. Despite only being Front wheel drive at the moment, He had got...

    Hands up everybody who's Landy is broken

    Could have really done with 4WD today, bloody VCU has gone, But the landy still did me proud with front wheel drive only today :cool: Should be fixed by the start of next month though. fingers crossed.

    Hands up everybody who's Landy is broken

    Typical, I leave the house today under a tiny bit of snow, Get to my Landrover and realise it is only running on front wheel drive for the next few days. DOH! :doh: Its not a nice feeling knowing i am basically driving a rather heavy and un-aerodynamic hatchback at the moment

    You are Very Patient. The Moment i found out they didnt put it into a LR approved garage i would of gone to the police. No second chances. You do not owe them ANYTHING. I would of gone to the station with the tape that second and got insurance involved. Good luck.

    yeah that will do, That is similar to how mine is, i get it back tonight but with no Prop shaft so its just FWD until the new prop shaft arrives.

    Possibly, My freelander is currently only 2wd so it depends if the Prop Shaft arrives before Friday or not, If it does then fine. Otherwise it wont be getting sorted until after the new year :( (oh yeah, that blown wheel bearing problem has gone very out of proportion)

    My hands are up, Driving on saturday and this loud whining sound starts from the front, speed dependant, take it back to the garage i bought it from and the wheel bearing is gone, They replace the bearing today and go for a test drive and *BANG* there goes the prop shaft. So now i have to wait...

    one more problem, and the freelander dies!!

    the dizzy sits 3 inches to the right of the oil port, Very easy to spill over the edge onto it.
