Funny that, I had a Freelander and the heater was smelling of curry then not long after I noticed the matrix was fooked, coincidence or what?

My Lara bless her.

Is diverting air away from the windscreen a good thing, mine takes ages to clear as it is?

Looks well nice mate, I must say though not a big fan of those wrap around plastic bars. We'll have to meet up, mine could do with a bit of mud on her as well.

I did exactly the same thing and seeing as I still have warranty and the weather was bad as far as I was concerned it was off the road so I called Land Rover assistance to deal with it, I thought this'll take two minutes, he'll warm it up or summat, must do loads of em, couldn't believe it when...

Yeah I know? I'm hoping someone knows a decent insurer for this, maybe a specialist without me having to ring around for quotes all day.

I need to swap the genuine part plastic a bar that was standard on the vehicle for a steel one, just rang Privilege and they want an extra £178 per month for this? Can someone please recomend a better insurer please.

I like it, wish I'd got black instead of brunel though.
