The Raven Posted November 12, 2009 Author Share Posted November 12, 2009 Happy days, the freelander has been fixed and will be back tomorrow. This means my car should be able to be taken off road next week. Mean time i have fitted a new/secondhand Aerial which works a treat. Added some pure sport mats. The mats have seen better days and need turning black and some new badges put on. Anyone know where to get them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
