Is there a list of independents? |
|
Hi
Just wondering if there is a list of recommended independents and their locations?
Trying to locate the closest, but most skilled and suitable, near me for some suspension arm replacements but not sure where to go.
I have done a search but couldn’t find a full list.
Thanks
Baz

I don't think there is a list as such.
If you ask on here for a recommendation of an indy near you then I'm sure there will be someone who can help Uncle Ray's spare wheel protector
Limo Tint
Blackvue front & rear dashcam
Cruise control switch pack
Bodsy's remote for FBH

Hello Baz, I’m not 5 minutes down the road from you and I can tell you we’re not exactly surrounded by great choices
I’m booked in at JAS Land Rover on the south side of York which is just under two hours away because trust and reputation is everything. Not local I know
A bit closer to home is AllTrack 4x4 just south of Brum and that takes an hour to get to. They also have a good reputation on here. I had a gearbox flush there last year.
Maybe someone can add to this post and surprise us both!
Just my opinion of course "Track day running - Don't put your foot back on the accelerator until your absolutely sure you don't have to take it off again"
Current Ride: D4 XS Commercial Baltic Blue SDV6 fully loaded with heated everything
Track Days: BMW E36 M3 Evolution MY 1996 (3.2 Litre 377 BHP sat in 1,250 Kgs of car, with a pro safety cage and some serious braking power)

Colemans Garage just off J28 of the M1 opposite Macarther Glen shopping centre have a good reputation.
They are not a LR specialist but they definitely know their way around LR/RR and the problems they have.
They can do full body off work, and did the rear suspension arms on my D4 plus ive used them for years. They have just opened a brand new workshop up, can carry out diagnostics and 4 wheel alignment and have just employed an ex JLR workshop guy.
There is also Land Rover Diagnostics who can do the majority of work including IID, he is LR accredited so can update OSH etc.

I have no connection to either but can highly recommend them both. 2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten

Thanks guys, thought I was just being a bit thick not finding it.
@kilovault yep kinda hoping there is a secret garage hidden away!
Did try Alltrack but couldn’t get me in until early June, not complaining with that statement as knew they would be busy, just need it looking at a bit sooner.
Thanks for the info all, on the phone tomorrow
