    Looks like the vibrations and rattles from yellas Disco have finally done for his eyesight - poor lamb - read the post chap 'I guess I should be happy that their curiosity was pricked sufficiently to think that the glass may be out of the tailgate - its the attitude i cant stand'...

    Rear window and the law

    I hear what you are saying - like I said, I managed to acquire 9 points in one hit when I was a yoof (exceeding 100mph on the motorway) and managed to avoid a ban because I was so obsequious in court and because I took my Advanced Driving Test (voluntarily) - judge was so impressed that he...

    Rear window and the law

    Me driving with the tailgate window open down this morning attracted the attention of West Mercia's finest Traffic Officers this morning on the way into work - apparently they had never seen a car with the tailgate open and thought that the back glass may have been busted in - they ran my number...

    scary cornering

    16 years of driving 'real' Land Rovers then you decide to buy a Freelander???:D Seriously now , be interesting to see how you find the Freelander in comparison once you have the tyres / handling issue sorted

    scary cornering

    I have to say it really took me by surprise at first, having done a fair bit of karting in the past, I failed to approach the Freelander with the care that I should have done initially. That sort of handling characteristic is a foible of the first 'hot hatches' (I used to have a Renault Gordini...

    scary cornering

    hmmm - definately sounds something wrong there - 'lower' speed cornering (30ish mph) and quick changes of direction (whipping it round a roundabout) are superb. Is this the first 4x4 you have driven?? - as Mark correctly pointed out, the higher centre of gravity and the body roll can be...

    Got To Sell My Freelander (51) Any Tips??

    I wouldnt pay too much attention to the 'ribbing' on here - I am fairly new to this site and it took me by surprise a bit but I am now used to it and its like water off a ducks back. You also have to have a little empathy with these people - dont forget, they own either series/defenders or...

    Big letters all over my handbook - not suitable for biodiesel - im guessing that using veggie might ever so slightly invalidate my warranty???

    Positive Comments

    To be honest I very much doubt if I would stop and help out another Freelander on the motorway, other that the fact that I am a 'stuck up snotty t**t(sp)', its illegal - with good reason too!! If you break down on the motorway then you get your arse as far out of your car as you can, call...
