Land Rovers UK Limited
Brought my 50th from them. Excellent service. Really helpful guys with a really friendly and fun environment. One of the mechanics had me in stitches with his stories of off roading adventures!

Highly recommended!!

PS: Their website is like looking at Land Rover porn too ( www.landroversuk.co.uk )

Bought my 110 td5 from them late last year. Prices aren't cheap but then I don't think they're much different to other reseller in this rising market.

Nice bunch of people and passionate about what they do.

I was back down there today to sort out a couple of small electrical issues that cropped up. To be fair to them, these weren't officially covered by my warranty but they sorted for me at no additional cost.

Had a great time just chatting to their guys whilst they were doing the work.

Previously, they didn't sell many PUMA's but recently their stocks of these seem to have picked up considerably.

I'm always the first to be critical, so credit where it's due. These guys deserve praise for the way they've dealt with me Thumbs Up Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.

Came across the site recently, was impressed!

Good rare TDi's can go for 7-8K, very low mileage and mint 10-11K so put on top of that the dealers mark up of maybe £1500-2000 and it doesn't seem so bad (I don't know the figures but they have to make a living after overheads tax etc!). You will also have the peace of mind that it has been given the once over mechanically and is not a stolen or ringed one. I spent 6 months trapezing around the country looking at a load of rubbish before I bought mine, maybe just buying a good one from a dealer would have been better!

Yep, Stuart did all the bits and bobs for me yesterday. Nice guy, very knowledgable and happy to chat whilst he worked.

For me, being new to the Defender after a couple of Discos, I'd rather pay premium for a decent, well prepared truck and excellent after sales service.

They clearly care about their reputation and it shows. Thumbs Up

I wish them every success. Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.

When I was looking for a Defender a couple of years ago I went down to LRUK to look at a nice Def 90 TD5 they had advertised. When I got there they had sold it, but they were very helpful showing me their other stock and seeing if there was anything else that may suit.

Good quality stock mostly, although there were a few that I thought were overpriced considering the condition. Would have bought another 90 they had in, but they would not budge even £1 on the price and considering it needed quite a bit of paintwork due to extensive electrolytic corrosion it was just too much.

Very nice guys and seem professional, but their prices are at the very top of the range.

From another angle I sold a vehicle to them and they paid me a fair price , very professional with good communication , it was interesting to see the end result on their web site and knowing the work they did the final price wasn't that over the top.
It sold very quickly. HR064 Hampshire and Berkshire 4x4 Response

Excellent service. Or have I got the wrong company?
