    Paint job, DVLA, insurance blah!

    You need to tell your insurance company if you have changed anything beyond the original specification of the vehicle - anyone who tells you different is leading you astray.

    LED fog lights

    I have something similar on mine but not down low - bear in mind that LED's tend to be much more directional than incandescent lamps which isn't ideal for fog light usage.

    Roof rack on or off?

    I have a full length galv rack on my 110 - you can't get into any of the car parks around here, it further worsens the aerodynamic profile of the vehicle and cuts top speed by about 7mph and it is a pain when taking it to a pay & play side as I am always hitting trees with it. It looks great...

    day to day changes?

    Any insurance provider will have its specialist targets, a Freelander is perhaps classified as not being an actual 4x4 in the same way that a Defender or a Jeep is means that they just price themselves out of the market. Also bear in mind AF is not an insurance company but a broker, their...

    day to day changes?

    Did you get any email with the price and a reference number? If so call their helpline and try and insist on that price. It is a possibility that they think you are acting in a fraudulent manner, if you saved one quote then started swapping modifications around to try and get a better price...

    Whats with insurance company's..?

    I work for an insurer also - when it comes to renewals some companies often rely on customer apathy - many people just don't want to go through the hassle of changing insurer.

    CB Radio...

    I have this antenna: Thunderpole Orbitor SS | Mobile CB Radio Antennas | THUNDERPOLE.co.uk With this CB: TTI TCB-1100 | Mobile CB Radio | THUNDERPOLE.co.uk To be honest the amount you spend on a CB radio system will not change the range you get (unless you go crazy) but really just depends...

    Recovery/Protection - Ideas

    Make sure that crossmember isn't too rusty is you fit those - you don't want a towing point to become a flying projectile when it has another vehicle attached to it during a recovery.

    Yarwell

    The very good times and the very bad times (My first few days of owning a landy)

    Bear in mind Adrian Flux is not an insurance company (as in underwriting policies) but actually an insurance broker. When you take out insurance with them they will put you with the cheapest member of their panel of insurers so when you make a claim you could be dealing with Axa, Norwich...

    Anyone involved in flood rescues today in he south west?

    Also bear in mind that manhole covers can be forced off during flooding when drains are overflowing. I wouldn't want to drop a wheel into one of those at any speed.
