Hi everyone

I'm a regular on Disco4.com under the same name, but occasionally post on here to help out my Dad, who owns a Freelander 2. He's just traded in his '10 plate car for a 2014 Metropolis with 8k on the clock.

However, it doesn't have a full size spare wheel/tyre, only the Continental sealant kit.

Does anyone have a spare size tyre & wheel assembly for sale? Ideally a 235/55 R19 on the Metropolis style alloy wheel. Perhaps someone who has changed their tyre set-up?

Would love to know if you have, and what kind of money you are looking for. Can have a courier collect, or pay postage etc.

With thanks

Probably not many of those around. Do bear in mind that all FR2 wheels are acceptable. the "standard" steel spare was always 17", whatever size of wheel the car came with. The circumference is the same, and it'll last until the puncture is repaired.
That said, keep looking. Amazing what pops up here or on the bay. I have in the past bought a set of four and sold on the three I didn't need. Remember too that the tyre only needs to be legal. Doesn't have to be brand spanking new. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
300TDi Disco (bought new - terrible car) sent back after 18 months
Freelander 1 Estate - leased, given back at end of lease
200TDi Disco (bought from a mate with 100,000 on the clock) - Gone
Disco 2 TD5 - sold and exported to France
FR2 TD4 GS - Gone
FR2 SD4 HSE - Now changed for a DS

Unable to order a new DS, so gave up. Now have a Volvo S90 Recharge.

I have a MY FL2 HSE Lux with the 19” Diamond turned wheels, which I think is the same that were on the Metropolis, which I am trading in for a Mercedes GLC, supposedly on 28 Oct.
When I bought the car I kept the spare and jack from my previous FL2 HSE on the change over, putting the sealant kit in the old car. I subsequently bought a 19” Diamond turned wheel on eBay, for £205, and sold the non-matching wheel, after swapping the Conti tyre over. This wheel has been on the car, as I swap my tyres around occasional, but is still in excellent condition.
Assuming that my purchase goes to plan, and the dealer is not particularly expecting a full size spare, we could perhaps come to some agreement and swap over your sealant for the wheel/tyre/jack shortly before my trade in. Your signature says you are in Surrey and I am in in East Sussex, so may be fairly close.

If interested please PM me.

Thank you Cedric - PM sent!

And thanks Past master for the advice too.
