Welcome to LZ, Carl!

I don't really know of anyone in Ealing, but if you don't mind a drive, Dingocroft at High Wycombe are good, about 40 minutes on the A40.

And try asking other owners that you may see around the local area.

Best option of all is to learn to maintain your vehicle yourself, even late-ish model defenders are fairly straightforward to work on.

Hello and welcome from me too
I can't help with recommendations either cos I'm miles from you.
Search on here for security for your tratter and get that sorted asap if you haven't already.

Welcome mate. I'm an ex-Hayes boy so know that part of the world very well indeed

As above - never mind worrying about steering wheels etc - security is ALWAYS the very first thing to address and the general rule is the more the better. Defender's have a tendency to go missing very frequently (and very quietly) so that's where to start. Don't know of any specialists round that way I must admit, but I've had mine since I moved out to the country so never had need for one when I lived in the smoke.

Welcome to the mad forum. You have taken the first step by buying a Defender. I'm sure you will find lots of help and advise on here. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Thanks V much for the warm welcomes and advice. Yes, security indeed important - has a good alarm on it plus other bits.
