Hi,
I am hoping to scour the country next week in search of a Defender 90, hopefully a 200/300 Tdi CSW.
As it will be my first step into the world of landrovers, can anyone recommend any good, reputable independent dealers? As I dont feel I know enough about them to buy one privately and might have a little more luck if I buy one with a warranty.
If anyone knows of any good places in the South East, that would be a great start, but I fear that I may end up going all over this great land!!

Thanks, great site by the way.

Hello,

Try keith gott in Alton, Hampshire - www.keithgott.co.uk
A friend of mine works there, and they are really helpfull.
They show a few landrovers for sale on the website, however they usually have more on site so recomend you to give them a call or go down there for a look around.

Hope this helps,

Scott.

Thanks Scott,
Just checked out the website and it looks promising. If I venture out that way I will definately give them a look.
Trouble is, everywhere else on my planned route that I have found to go and look at so far is all up North, and yet it seems as though every other car that I see on the road down here is a Landy! Where did they all come from????
I might be being a little ambitious in thinking that I will find one next week and it might take me a little longer. So thanks again for your tip and if its grim up north, I shall explore the south.

many thanks
Z

Ey oop Essex lad! Have you tried RST on Mersea? They've always got a few for sale - and when it comes to LRs they know their stuff.

Bit further afield there's Nene Overland, they've always got something a bit different. Talking of different: Foley's just beyond Epping (can't remember the exact location)
