I have just found your forum. Can anyone help? I have a trusty Freelander 1 Commercial which has done some 65K miles and needs replacing. I understand LR will not be producing a commercial version in the near future. Can anyone recommend a professional conversion dealer that does not affect the LR warranty.
Alternatively we are happy to do the conversion ourselves if we could obtain the parts. Are these parts official LR products and can you order them from a dealer?
Any help would be greatful as this would just be the best 'Van' in the world.
Thanks

why do you need to replace it 65k is nothing

There are a few secondhand ones about but if you want a new one then Nene Overland is a good place to start:-

Not going to replace it - too good to go so passing on to an assistant. I want to treat myself to an XS Commercial.

I've got a FL2 Commercial with 130K on the clock, still going strong.
Lakeland Landrover do a full Commercial conversion on new Freelanders, very good to deal with

Thanks Peter33.
I have already contacted them to be quoted £2K for a conversion which seemed a liitle steep.
if we could get the parts we would do the conversion ourselves.
Does anyone know if LR or a dealer will sell these parts. My local Lookers dealer is unwilling to help or supply

You could try the site sponsors, Lookers Park Roayl or Duckworthparts

I would speak to Nick (Parts Manager at Yeovil LR) - also know as TLO - The Large One - if he cannot get it then its not gettable

It's even more steep considering you won't get the parts they take out, they'll just sell no doubt?! Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35

Surely after removal of the rear seats it's a case of nipping down to B&Q for a few sheets of plywood, then doing some magic with the 'jigsaw'.
After that some window tints then adapt the space to how you want it. £500 tops, sell the seats for £150 ends up with job done for £350.

Resale privately will fetch a good price from someone wanting something different.

you need a safety fence to stop your load from stabbing you in the back in case of severe braking. I once saw a van brake violently and the rear contents flew forwards and smashed his windscreen,,, could have been his head At work
