Interesting you're getting a genuine LR for under half price. That's worth the extra if it's definitely better quality.
In future, I think I'll go with the Meyle one that NeilTD4 recommended, so th ... |

That's worth noting, thanks.
I've been impressed with the garage that carried out the MOT (who I don't usually use for anything else).

| Thanks for the reply. Sure enough, it's not covered after 12 months. Looking now for a decent, affordable replacement. Any suggestions welcome. |

I'd appreciate recommendations for a brand of detachable tow bar. A couple of web sites say these are not not available for my 2010/11 FL2.
I only want to use it a few times each year for carrying ... |

Having done my first oil filter change, I'm thankful for all the advice on here. My takeaways are
