Has it had a door painted at a time? Front and rear doors look different shades of silver, although might just be the photo?

No mate it must be the light, looks ok.

Lidl / aldi is better than iceland.

I find the latter is all chemicals and overly processed crap. You can still shop cheap without eating chemical soup.

United Kingdom 2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Stornoway Grey

I too just brought a fl2.
Have done the following
Roofbars
Centre armrest
Boot 12 socket
Blue spark eco chip
Egr blanking plate

I tow a 1500kg caravan and the extra power and torque from the chip really helps.

Not sure yet on the egr blanking plate, but the mpg has jumped up loads.

Hope that helps

Fitted the EGR blanking plate this morning. Nice easy 10 min job & the difference was noticeable immediately. More power & response pulling away & in the lower gears. Felt a lot smoother. Now for tyres. The majority of threads I’ve read have 18/19” wheels. What taller/wider all terrains can I fit without causing issues?

Got 18" wheels on mine and just fitted a full set of 235/60 R18 Michelin Cross Climates on them - tyres feel lovely, nice and direct steering and very smooth on the road.

They are only slightly bigger than I have now Mudpup, looking for more rubber & clearance when I’m offroad...
