Nice motor npinks, James has just let me have a demo in it. Took it for a couple of mile spin with some off road, didnt realise how big some of those boulders were until they hit the underside but i think i gaffer taped the resulting hole sufficiently.

Anyway, I have dropped it back off at the dealer and took a photo of how I left it there for you - just incase you are missing it!

As previously muted maybe we could add a forum under the freel2.com section for Caravanning with a strict policy of no caravan bashing ( a CG free zone if you will)

And then in the spirit of diversity you could CG's bigotry corner with a strict policy of if you don't like it don't read it 

I totaly agree with christian138 concerning the CG corner - excellent idea

......and just for the record again:

I am NOT a caravaner and never will be
I do have a tow bar for other things (like dragging certain farmers thorough muddy ruts )
I will not leave the forum if Nick leaves and CG becomes moderator
I do dislike Volvos
and lastly I am not old or grumpy  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

Thanks LR2

BTW Going to be taking my towbar off and refitting it to the new one

Wouldn't mind a detachable this time round though, I have to see what can be sorted with my boss

If you rip off the roof horns and put coloured covers on the mirrors it will look even better  2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

npinks - white wing mirror caps would really set if off - worth enquiring with the dealer before you take delivery.

Ordered mine with the Rimini Red ones and have never looked back - REALLY do set if off.  Now - 2017 BMW X3 M Sport Carbon Black
Gone - 2014 BMW X3 M Sport Space Grey, faultless!
Gone - 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Bali Blue with xenons
Gone - 2008 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Rimini Red with bodykit

foiled again The plan was: Pinky buys another brand so resigns as mod , I step into his roll and run the forum in a fair and balanced way, caravanning talk is banned , AndyC leaves the forum in disgust, everyone else is happy

So this explains why pinks having so many problems with his current FL2, All are part of CGs longterm stratergy of taking over the forum admin role...

Move to the Dark Side? I would need dark glasses, very dark dark glasses just to approach it in the morning! still pining for my 3dr, no removeable hardtop, no drop glass tailgate, no roof rack, no pockets everywhere to stow all that man kit
