New Freelander 1 Project Car | Raptor's Garage

Welcome to Raptor's Garage. Just collected the new project car purchased from a friend. It's a Freelander 1 TD4 HSE. A 2004 model, which has mechanically been looked after, with only about 2000 miles a year for the last 6yrs. However, my friend's wife has used it for her equestrian hobby, and it's never seen a drop of soapy water or a vacuum cleaner for at least 6yrs. So step 1 is to give it a thorough clean, to reveal what then needs to be cleaned!! Plus, it's due an MOT at the end of the month, so it will be off to Paul to give it the once over with me to see if there's any obvious failures we can fix.
