Just to let you know there are places out there that are still happy to help as much as they can.

Little Garage Called MJ Rolls in a small village, Bourne, nr Cambridge. Couldnt have been more helpful, polite and willing to take the time to discuss issues I had on my series landie, Unlike a Certain Landrover Dealer in Sawtry, who really couldnt be asked and isnt that interested. I am still waiting 3 weeks later for a phone call in reference 2 seals and locking nut.

So many thanks to MJ Rolls for all your help and if any of you are in the area, and need advice it is worth looking them up. Well Done Guys :-) !!!

We were on holiday at the beginning of August in St. Davids, Wales when we discovered on the Friday that our water pump (series 2a ) had gone kaput. We were going home on the Sunday morning because of work committments. We went to City Garage in St. Davids which basically said that it would be Monday before any parts came in but he would ring round to see what he could get. Not only did he locate one ( in Cardiff) but got it sent by Royal Mail who promised faithfully (ha ha) to get it to him by 8 am Saturday morning (some hope we thought). Well they did!!!! and it was all fitted and working by the lunch time!! Thanks to all at City garage for a prompt efficient service.

Gaynor and Tim.

couldnt agree more. I used them on the recommendation of my step father who farms nearby and uses them for everything. Very good.

I'm very surprised, assuming you mean the same LR Specialist I deal with in Sawtry opposite the shops I have always found Robert and Martin to be more than helpful, more than another specialist whose name rhymes with "Underhand" and specialises in Hannibal roofracks and tents.

To be fair to Rob, he has several woes, including a divorce where he is not being allowed access to his kids on account of him "endangering their lives offroading"
