    Softback, Hardback or Both...?

    Forgot to say main reason I bought the 3 door and not the 5 was because of its ability to add the soft top. I like it and think its a good design :) http://www.landyzone.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=17481&size=big&cat=&ppuser=61083

    TD4 2006 Cutting Out

    Drivers door lock button

    Good question Ive always rode motorcycles, sold my last one in Aug 10 being a cbr1100xx Blackbird, picking up a VFR800 in 2 weeks, long drive back from Yorkshire hope it isnt snowing. The biker curtesy nod seems to have died off in recent years. I cant see Freelander owners starting to wave...
