Imo the whole idea of driving a Land Rover is so I don't need to get some overpriced charlatan aka garage to fix it for me.

i think the going rate is (for a good mechanic) about £25-£35 per hour+
but if your just startin off start cheap to get a good name (if ya any good that is ) an work up slowly.
dont be too greedy coz you won't get any landy owners in ya garage
an good luck with ya new venture

Sorry for the delay stay in EK. Remember being at a scout camp when I was young (late 70's early 80's) and going into Stonehouse to a cafe and were chased for our lives by a group of hairies, was like something out of deliverance, sure one of the chasers was carring a banjo (only kidding)
