Would anyone have some info/pictures of the follow old BL dealer.
Eyles & coxeter. Headington London road Oxford.
It's where my Land Rover was first sold. All I can find is that it's now a coop.
Would be great to get some old photos, merchandise etc

"From 1958 to 1979 all the shops from Windmill Road to the large shop to the east of Holyoake Road were part of the Oxford & District Co-operative Society.

In 1979 the Co-op moved to its present supermarket at the junction of London Road and Stile Road. The site was that of the former Eyles & Coxeter garage, which distributed Triumph, Rover, and Jaguar cars. The petrol station remained facing the London Road, but fell into disuse in the late 1990s, and in July 2003 work started on converting this area into a new entrance for the store."
 
I know that part of the world well, I lived in Headington when at Uni about 5 years ago. I would much rather have seen a BL dealership there than a Co-Op!
