i had to delete independents from my original question because they simply do not have the 'cover' that a main dealer has!

When you've taken your car to a dealer to have them diagnose a problem for the "umpteenth" time and every time they charge you £200 for the privilege of their "expertise" you will see that the "cover" you get from them is actually very poor.

Compare this with an independent who charges 30-50ph, works on the cars every day AND has to rely on satisfied customers AND repeat business (two areas where a LR dealer doesn't give a damn)

I know from experience which I am more likely to get a better solution with. My car and its previous owner is a perfect example. 3 or 4 trips to a main dealer to get a knocking noise located and sorted. After replacing various components they still hadn't fixed it.
My indy spotted the worn anti-roll bar links, and changed them over for under £50 inc parts and labour.

A decent indy will have the same computer LR garages use so will be able to do exactly the same work.

After all - do not forget that your local Land Rover Dealer is NOT Land Rover. They are a private company who have a deal with LR UK to sell their cars, nothing more. 

good points there dan.  ... - .- -.
