United Kingdom 

If it is anything like the "Stainless steel" one that was available for the FL1 - don't bother unless you are into bling in a serious way.

Ordered one for the FL1, it was a piece of VERY shiney tin with adhesive strips to stick it onto the existing under tray. The parts Manager was very apologetic, he opened the package, took a look and rang me to come and inspect it. We both had a laugh and a coffee - it never got fitted. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her

Mantec Guards

After suffering dents in the sump and the plastic fuel tank I decided to fit Mantec guards.

This is how they come out of the box:

They can both be fitted quite easily without a ramp or jacking up the vehicle. 2007 Baltic Blue SE TD4 Auto

I'm pretty sure you'll find that they are totally different shapes.

Australia 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 SE Auto Lago Grey

Does anybody know of somewhere in Australia that sells the Mantec sump and tank guards (or something similar)? The closest distributor I could find on the Mantec website was in Singapore. 11MY SE SD4 in Lago Grey just arrived with a free Garmin thrown in! This could be the start of a beautiful relationship (I'm an eternal optimist, and former FL1 owner)!

Just import from the UK. You won't need to pay GST if it's under $1000. --
