Sorry for the delay in replying. It's been a while back and I can't for the life of me remember how it came out. It wasn't that difficult though because I managed it. It was possibly already damaged so just came away? Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I'm struggling to commit to selling it. I've taken some photos of the interior, need to give the outside a scrub before I do the o/s, then I'll probably put it on Auto Trader this week and see what's what. If it ain't gone by the end of the month I'll keep it and get a runaround. We'll see...

Well next was, sorry to admit this maybe a senior moment, a very nice Freelander 2. Only it were a crock of ****e. Rusty in boot, rust on the inside of the wheel arches, cheap and tacky inside anorl. Cheeky bastid sales bloke was saying how good it was. Complimented me on how clean me Jaaaaag...

Well with garage I called 4 times I eventually got to speak to a human who gave me the usual tale of woe; there's not much profit in the car so don't want a p/e but I'll give you silly money for it, but I've got lot of interest in it so...... Plenty out there anyways. So next.

Me search continues. I've messaged and or called 3 garages with a view to looking at what they've have. Two haven't bothered to reply, whilst the third one I've spoken to 4 times and given my contact details to and they still can't be bothered to return me calls. Now I though we were in...

As soon as I turned up at the place I thought dodgy. Couldn't see it from the road as it was behind metal fencing. Chap said, and I quote, "my wife says it's like the Texas Chain Saw Massacre in my yard". Me spidy senses were tingling.

It was. When the tailgate was up the roof line was thick with green gunge along the whole width of it. They'd got some sort of strong air freshener all over the inside, obviously to hide something. The centre console was filthy inside as well and the tyres were worn on the shoulders. It had...

Went to see it. Is the steering supposed to wobble at around 60mph? Filthy, like mouldy and it stank anorl. Crock of ****e. Me Jaaaaag was a lovely drive on the way back (100mile round trip). Oh well there will be others.

It's a 3.6. Seeing it tomorrow.

@JohnM70 How are you finding the TDV8? Looking at a similar this week and swapping the Jaaaaag out for it. Still happy with it?

Wrong thread.

Yes. Also introduce yourself in the relevant section. This one's for extreme nutters who will tell you it's a common fault and you should burn it. Best of luck by the way.

I have a switch that may prove useful?

One of the above as listed at Rimmer Bros: https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-XKB500120 Free to a good home, including postage. Suffolk way. Ta.

I am an adult. I am also responsible. But never at the same time.

Could a responsible adult please give the bloke some proper advice and point him in the right direction.

Burn it. Only solution.

Strange coincidence. The Shaguar's screen has also packed in on the passenger side and about a third working on the driver's side, a fellow owner's has also gone AWOL . AutoGlass quoted £430 inclusive to to replace. Must be something to do with the weather.

Too late. Looked at a TD4 last week, right crock of excrement it was too. Got me eye on one or two replacements, no rush though.

Going to see one tomorrow afternoon TD4 this time and a manual as well. Lots of bells and whistles and lowish miles. There's also an auto on the radar but a basic one. Will be my 5th. Am I sane????
