Land Rover Parts/Accessories in Yorkshire

Hi all, looking at getting a few things sorted for my 90 over the next few weeks such as sump guard plastic a bar and spots possibly snorkel, seat covers and so on. Its my first landy and i don't really know about where to be looking for parts and would like to source locally if possible to save paying postage and so on. I think i'll be giving my local dealer a miss as the quoted £540 for parts and vat when fitting a snorkel

Thanks,

George

You're better off ordering online. The 'soft' A bars (like fitterd to the newer defender high spec models - if thats the one you mean) are overpriced. If you buy from John Craddock (website) and spend over £60 (roughly) you get free postage. They're usually pretty quick with postage too. Never take it to the dealer for repairs (unless you've got a brand new one and its under warranty ) you'll just get a big pit in your pocket. Try to find a mechanic in your area which works for himself and has his own workshop - theres usually a couple around specialising in Land Rovers and 4x4s. Good luck

Definatly not!

Not Simmonites, then!!

If you need a good mechanic and Leeds isn't too far, I'd definitely recommend Matthew Sykes. His website is MKS Classic and Sports Car Services. He's also treasurer of the Yorkshire Off Road Club and gives a 10% discount on labour for club members.

Whoops went up there yesterday and picked up a steel steering guard as they were the same price as others online. However they either gave me 1 too few bolts or i've lost it in the car not really sure need to do a proper search but i think its a fault on there part.
