My comments were not meant to be negative, but then I do like the appearance of the latest Freely and if I could I would certainly buy one Its just that when I see older models of any car that have been modified to look like the latest model I wonder if they have been "repaired a bit". However Mav71's plans for future rebuild before selling sounds an excellent idea. Agree about the crappie Pleather trim that we get/got at an incredible LR price and a leather retrim by one of the non LR company's is far better investment 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof. Stornoway Grey with Ebony Black Pleather, Clear Indicators, Body Side Mouldings etc. |

It's OK Andy, I didnt take your comments as Negative I agree with what your saying. Thats why I won't re-fit the facelift 'Kit' until I have every part required and do it all at once.

The annoying thing, is the Windsor is STILL only leather seat facings. For £1200 on top of standard leather trim, I would expect full leather. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come......... |

Well should get a delivery date on the boot handle today. I dropped the bumper off at my LR bodyshop and they are going to hang on to it until the handle arrives.

Andy - if you are referring to me re "blue leather" Owner's Manuals Wallet then her Laydship's Newport came with the blue plastic abomination which I complained about to the supplying LR dealer as I previously stated at the time. His response was to offer a Black Leather RR one - to which I said thanks no thanks (it was embossed with the garage name and Range Rover). The original blue plastic OMW, together with the black plastic HB & GL gaiters were replaced by colour coded terracotta leather to match the Newpor's seats. I know of at least one Freel2.com member who upon seeing them said they look great. |

Each to their own, but full marks to Mav71 for having the courage to buy a bumper and then to play about with it.
