Looks good! The last 3 cars I've had have been black... Censored to keep clean, but look good when they do!

PS - Nice to see an old veedub face again Wish! (Remember Borat?) In case of emergency, break dance.

Hello MikeP yes I remember. It's been a while.
Left the VW scene when I had so much trouble with my Mk 5 and vowed never to have a mother VW again.
We've had 10 MINIS since then, but a serious road accident my wife had made he want a big car again, so here we are.

Hope you are well.

I really love the black Freelander more than I ever thought I would. I wanted her to have the discovery but her heart was set on the Freelander. It's bigger than her x3 she had back in 06. Infant we have had to have the garage altered so it fits !
Never realised how big the Freelander was. It dwarfs the X3

It's an expensive solution for most (pun not intended but appropriate!) but a water softener helps get the car clean. No marks on the body, you just rinse int down and leave it to dry.
