    05 Freelander front wiper motor

    Hi, I need a front wiper motor for a 2005 TD4, does anyone know if a 1999 wiper motor would fit? I can get a 1999 one from a breakers yard but the breaker isnt sure if it would fit. Thanks

    Freelander tyre recommendations?

    It was just very bad luck. 10mph tops, tyres played a major part... was skidding non stop til i got my new tyres.

    Freelander tyre recommendations?

    I ordered a set of Pirelli Scorpion STRs but they didn't arrive so I opted for a set of Hankooks (Dynapro HP) that were in stock at half the price of the Pirellis. They appear decent so far.

    which 18" tyres?

    Freelander tyre recommendations?

    Yeah I think I'll get a set of snow chains if the snow looks set to continue for a while. Bit of damage around the rear driver side, I had to fling the car into a hedge to try to stop but the ack swung out and hit the front wheel of the tractor. Just looked and the Continental tyres get pretty...

    Freelander tyre recommendations?

    Hi there, I am wondering if anyone would be able to recommend a set of tyres for a Freelander sport size 235-50-R18? I bought the Freelander 2nd hand with a set of Accelera tyres on it. Today going down our country road in the snow I met a tractor carting a load of stones and I couldn't get...
