YOUR LAND ROVER

OUR SERVICE

We Work on All Land RoverS of All Ages

Currently in 2024 we have suspended this service. We are inundated with Restoration Projects and simply do not have time to accomodate both. 

We are mainly known as a Land Rover restoration shop, but will gladly entertain any and all Land Rover repair inquiries. As Land Rover enthusiasts we have extensive experience with all model's. This ranges from the Series IIA, to Range Rover Classics, and Discovery 2 all the way through the latests L322 Range Rover's. In short, next to owning several modern Land Rover's ourselves, we service and maintain a plethora of daily use vehicles for our customers. We are however not a "while you wait shop", this means that you can make an appointment and we will rotate your vehicle into service when we are able too.  As noted, we are mainly a 'restoration shop' in the sense that we frame off restore vehicles and that does mean that wait times for regular service can be lengthy. Nonetheless, pick up the phone give us a ring and we can easily discuss when and how with a current time frame in mind.  

A General Guide to Land Rover Defender Pricing 

This is a great place to get an idea to the general construction of a Land Rover Defender and what all is involved financially to build/repair a vehicle by us. 

Labor Services more commonly asked: 

  • Suspension Bushes $750

     This includes refurbishment of the arms 

  • Springs + shocks $750 (non-air) 

  • Engine Conversions 200tdi (RHD Defender engine only) $1900

  • Engine Conversion 200tdi (RHD Discovery into Defender) $2300

  • LHD prices differ - sometimes substantially. 

  • Chassis Swaps: $4750 + the cost of bolts and any additional items needing to be replaced (think fuel lines, brake-lines, fittings) 

Chassis Swap

Chassis Swaps are far from straightforward. Some cars come apart with angle grinders, some with torches, none ever do with just wrenches when you get to the frame swap point. This time-consuming adventure is absolutely the best thing you could do to your Defender.

None Land Rover Engine Swaps 

Realistic Expactions 

Being one of the premier places in the USA for our wide variety of Engine swap options, brings a realistic perspective to any and all potential customer. Because we do numerous and various brands of engine swaps, it brings a new perspective of what we can provide to you. Certainly you do not want to be limited to just doing option "A" only if you have no real need for option 'A'. More so, not every customer has the same needs or demands from their vehicle and in certain situation Engine 'A' is far better than engine 'B' and vice versa.   

In early 2019 we sold our last ever (none) remanufactured 300tdi. Quality of the used engine's we are able to source is simply becoming harder and harder to find. With our reputation in mind and your driving pleasure, we see it only fit to warn and help you with limiting the choice to only a remanufactured unit, so both you and us can have peace of mind.
