I'm looking for an Independent Land Rover Specialist to service my 51 plate TD5 Discovery, I'm fed up being ripped off by Dealer labour charges. I've had a few bad experiences with the independents I've used so far and one who advertises in the Land Rover mags with an e mail address doesn't even have the courtesy to reply obviously doesn't need the money.
I am willing to travel a reasonable distance so any ideas would be appreciated.

Can recommend "White's Auto Service" at Washington Lane (near Haymaket) Edinburgh. Give Andy White a ring on 01313379955. He is LR approved and has all the tech gear etc. I've been using him now for a couple of years with my 51 plate TD5 Disco. Labour charge less than £30/Hr (Main dealer charges around £80/hr!!!!!!)
Very skilled and honest guys. Never had any complaints about his great service.
BTW I have no connection with them. I'm just a very satisfied customer.

Yep, I agree with Dave Mac. I too have been using White's for the last couple of years (indeed he replaced a front suspension coil on my 02 TD5 this week, only £35 labour).
Good guy, good service.

I too have no vested interest in recommending him (in fact I hope he doesn't get too busy to fit me in!).

Give this one a try www.GEMM4x4.co.uk they are based in Larbert near Falkirk. I use them for service, MOT, etc, but you best give them a phone call first because they are always very busy.

Cheers
Chas.
