Hello all
Was hoping I could use the expertise on the forum to see if anyone could recommend a garage / mechanic to use for work on my Landys. I am just so busy with work at the moment just haven't got time to do it myself.

Work I need carrying out right now on Disco 2 is:

Replace wheel bearings all wheels
Replace springs / shocks all wheels
Remove bumper, install and wire wince, replace
Remove and replace internal heater / AC unit

Work I need carrying out in the future on a 90

Remove existing engine and install new engine.

So locally to me in Berkshire is:

Rovertune
Challenger 4x4
Nick Kerner (who based on his dreadful reputation) I wouldn't use to change a fuse

So my questions are:

Can anyone give me an opinion on the above 2 or recommend anyone else is the Berkshire, Surrey, North Hampshire, South Oxfordshire area?

Any thoughts views are gratefully appreciated.

Cheers
Jon
 
I used Keith Gott close to Alton (Hampshire) a few times with my previous D2 and was very happy. Was just for service rather than repair, as I was blessed with more cash than time then! He also helped me with a bit of a lemon of a 110 CSW that I purchased from another dealer, which was returned for a refund, again, thanks to their help. This was about 6 years ago as I have now moved to Suffolk. I have a great specialist up here in Bury St Edmunds who help me out on my current D2, but guess that’s a bit too far (they have loaner Freelanders)
 
Are Safari engineering still going? They were that sort of area I'm sure, well Eversley/Yately

+1 for Kieth Gott in Alton, top firm, not the cheapest but never failed me yet when I've used them.

Sorry for the slow reply, thanks both for your replies, completely forgot about Safari, they are literally 15 minutes from me !!! Good shout.

I swung by there last week to see for myself, popped in and had a chat, really nice folks and so much knowledge!

Some super sexy 101 forward controls in the yard too
