With a choice of Genuine OE parts or quality Allmakes & Britpart aftermarket parts, you’ll find our prices hard to equal. Anything from an Oil Filter to a Winch Bumper. We operate counter sales for Sussex and local customers, mail order in the UK and export worldwide too.

"All things Land Rover, seven days a week"

So how do we live up to that? Perhaps with everything under one roof....

We may buy and sell only Defender and Series models from 1948 to 2013.

But we also service, maintain & repair Discoverys, Evoques, Freelanders, RR Sport and Vogues across their entire production variants, older and newer.

And yes, we have the latest in Land Rover Computer Diagnostics for all!

Parts? From a 1948 SI 'D' lamp to a 2013 model RR light unit. O/E Genuine, OEM or Patttern Aftermarket - the choice is yours....7/7

Accessories? Shall we say Everything? And if it isn't made, we'll make it in house.
Only 400,000 kms and 19 years testing in EU + Africa and beyond so far. Proprietor, DP & Parts/Accessories/Servicing guys have all been there, done that.

Tuning and associated upgrades? No BHP too big, no tweak too small. The whole gamut of every owners emotions available right now! Sensible, knowledgeable, practical advice based on their needs not ours! Tried and tested.

Limited Editions? Well, have you seen the choice? Mmmm, have you seen the prices, and examined the quality? We do the lot, for much, much less and with more care and experience... Why? Because there's more to life than gold thread and profit.

Experience? Got that in abundance (do folk say 'shed loads'?). No 3 Son Ben has been with us 16 years - half his life - and learns every day. And he is our newest Employee! The Man? Just 47 years in Business, over two thirds dedicated to Solihull's finest....

I started out as The Man who would and could, but want to finish this innings as The Man who did! A wonderful comment was passed onto me perhaps 15 years ago by a highly respected member of London Society, who said: "Thanks so much for looking after me whilst my son - now chastised, nay corrected by you for his perhaps foolish presumptions - blazed up and down the road in every truck you own - You're The Man For Land Rovers, you'll leave your mark on this World....." Maybe the job's about half done. Long live Land Rover!
