I'll pay them when I'm earning enough Stu!! I'm Royal Sigs Gil, were you in the mob? Ah the Port, I don't suppose you're on the CB are you?

Hi folks, I retire from the Army after a short 23yr 'career' very soon and I'm launching a business within the next four weeks It may look like a burger van but it's not, (it used to be before I bought it though). If you're not familiar with The British Street Food Revolution, get onto...

I'm going to be looking at this very closely! Is that defo for diesels too then? I saw a huge ad in LRO for a company who deal with diesel tune ups. £160 sounds good though. Is it something that can be done fairly easily DIY style i.e. open something up and slot in a 'chip'? What if my turbo...

Hi all, I know a lot of us have CB Radios in our vehicles but how many of us you it when we're not greenlaning etc? This year, on November 2nd between 7pm & 9pm on Ch30 will be what is being called 'The Big 30'. It'll be 30yrs since CB Radio has been legal! It's not a Swansea thing, (see...

Hi folks, I have a T reg 2.0XEdi which has 79.000 on the clock at the moment. I have just started towing my catering trailer which isn't very heavy. The freelander seems to lack any sort of grunt when hitched up to it. The trailer brakes are off before someone mentions it!!! Have replaced...

Hi All, Hill descent on my 1999 Freelander XEDi doesn't engage. Well, the light on the dash doesn't come on when I engage it. Upon starting the vehicle the lights on the dash illuminate so I know the bulb at the dash works. What are the likely causes? Also, the horn doesn't work. I looked...

Oh yeah, I'm reading this thread as I had the same problem today, (only had the vehicle three days).

Boot security box on my Freelander has a hole right through the carpet and then through the skin of the vehicle! I think the previous owner had an amp fitted. Having to rip out, (carefully remove) the carpet to dry it, check metalwork and treat if needed, seal hole, restore luggage restraining...

No I havn't............bought a dog of a vehicle?!!

Hello folks! Will be picking up my T reg 2.0XDi Freelander on Wednesday this week. It's not the Discovery that I wanted but I really need a 4x4 at the moment so at least I stuck with Land Rover. Always been a fan. I know some of you will tell me that the 2.0 XDi is a dog of a vehicle but I'm...
