    Freelander 1 Buying a Freelander - question on MOT advisories

    Another update: have dried the boot last weekend and got a hose out to test it during the week and there was ok leaks. Checked all the spots starting from the top and working down. Took it to a garage to get checked and they couldn’t find anything either. I’m guessing there was just a big spill...

    Freelander 1 Buying a Freelander - question on MOT advisories

I have quite a weak sense of smell, so got my girlfriend to smell and she didn't think it was a strong diesel smell, more it's the back of the car and has a car smell. Hopefully, that means it isn't a...

    Freelander 1 Buying a Freelander - question on MOT advisories

    I will double check in the morning to make sure it’s diesel, as the colour of it when it was more full had a slight diesel/rainbow colour around it. The leak is coming from the tank in the first picture where it’s really wet, not sure if you can see the picture I’ve uploaded? It doesn’t seem...

    Freelander 1 Buying a Freelander - question on MOT advisories

    Well, small? Update on the car. It has a leak and the tool well is also full of diesel. I did buy it expecting there to be some issue but hopefully these are minor, will need to have a proper look tomorrow to see what’s actually wrong! The picture of the tool well is after I’ve put some old...

    Hey Everyone! I guess this is long overdue as I signed up many years ago but had never posted until today as I just used to come and read and learn more about Landrovers.

    Thank so much everyone for the responses, I genuinely appreciate it so much! @andyfreelandy I did read that thread first, but I wasn't too clued up on what everything meant when I was reading the MOT and how to understand it. @Jayridium thank you so much for that as well! That is definitely a...

    Freelander 1 Buying a Freelander - question on MOT advisories

    Hi Everyone, I'm finally in a position where I don't live in a city centre and I'm looking to buy a car again and I really want a Freelander. I'm looking to buy a Freelander 1 that isn't too expensive and if it needs repairs I can either do them or go to a mechanic. I've been looking on this...
