    Freelander 1 Later models

    My 05 3 door is an XEi but I have fitted, steering wheel with audio controls, nudge bar, front spotlights (LR frogs eye type) and lamp guards. It already had side steps and roof rails so by now its no where near an XEi but I like it. I didn't put these bits on to make it easier to sell or get...

This guy is arguing over a matter of principle in so far as LR claim that the VCU 'locks up' in normal operation to provide 4wd. His new motor didn't so he rejected the car, because...

    04 Plate Petrol Freelander

    My wife and I both have 05 1.8 3 door Freelanders and she previously had a 1.4 Rover 45. All had their head gaskets changed once they were bought and have never had an ounce of trouble from them. I do not subscribe to the mob paranoia about K series head gaskets based upon my experience.
