    Freelander 1 What model was this?

    Was this a special model Land Rover did? I've not seen another and I can't imagine it was a after market body kit.

    How do I get proof of build date for DVLA

    They have a bit on there now that says, "Please be advised that if you require proof of your vehicle’s age, the DVLA will now only accept a Heritage Certificate as minimum evidence."

    How do I get proof of build date for DVLA

    I need to get proof of the build date for my series first registered 15/1/75 If I can prove it was built in 1974 I'll be tax exempt from April. The DVLA say write to Land Rover but I doub they will still have the records.

    Road tax exemption pre 1975?

    Had their records shown mine was built in 1974 I would have been able to get it changed at the post office (after 1/4/2015) but it was reg on 15/1/75 and built 31/12/75!

    Road tax exemption pre 1975?

    Great�� Just called the DVLA to see if my car is tax exempt from April as it was registered 15-1-75. Yes she says, just go into a post office after 1st April and ask them to change the tax class to historic. (Needs to be built in 74 to qualify) As simple as that I ask? Yes we have...

    Heated rear screen & reversing sensors?

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Brake fluid would only get that low if something is wrong elsewhere, leak, low pads etc.

    TD4 starter motor removal and overhaul..

    Just done this with the solenoid kit from ebay as well, very simple to do, allow an hour but you could probably do it in 20 mins the second time. disconnect battery, undo the bolt at the front of the starter that holds 2 power cables, unclip the small wire just above them, and as above only 2...

    Road tax exemption pre 1975?

    How can I find the build date of my Landy, it was first registered 15th Jan 1975, at present cars built pre 74 are free, so am I correct in thinking that sometime in the next year this will move to pre 1975? If so mine must surley have been made in 1974, but how do I prove this to the DVLA?

    Does the td4 fuel pump self prime.

    Wife run out of fuel last night, luckily enough as she pulled on the drive, at least I hope that's what's happened. (29 miles on reserve?) Ok to just pop a gallon it and keep on the starter till it goes?

    Swb? A bit more than £1500, closer to £2k I'd have thought.

    S2 can anyone give it a once over

    Looks very nice, maybe worth asking on the Essex land rover club forum, you may have a better chance of finding someone more local.

    Barn find

    I had to go to a DVLA office to tax it as the log book needed to be changed from PLG to vintage to get the MOT exemption, while there they asked if I wanted to take the A plate off and assign a age related plate, so I said yes please. I'd guess some years back somebody transferred the...
