Hi - I’m picking up an L322 within the next week or so. I’m new to Land Rover ownership so don’t have much to go on in terms of real world feedback.

There are a few jobs that I want doing on the car pretty much right away, including a power flush for the box, new sub frame bushes and a service. I’m going to do some phoning round local specialists this week to get some quotes, but the cost is only half the picture. I wondered if anyone had recommendations (or warnings!) about any of the local Worcestershire based LR specialists. My closest ones are:

M&M 4X4 - Droitwich
4x4 Development - Droitwich
JMW 4X4 - Hartlebury

But I’m very happy to hear about others that aren’t too far away.

Thanks,

I can highly recommend the following;

Alltrack 4x4

They should be quite near to you in Malvern.

Work they have completed for me;

Gearbox Megaflush
Oil Cooler
Suspension Arm

Very happy with their work and you can also arrange for a courtesy car from them. _______________________________________________

I live in Alcester and have tried two of the three you mention over the years.

MM4X4 are expensive IMHO. They did a lot of separate jobs on a P38 over a coupe of years some while ago and each time they quoted it seemed they always found something else as the job was done resulting in higher costs. This is also born out in the spares and accessories pricing they have - seem to be way more expensive that others. I dont use them anymore simply based on cost (cuz they are actually a nice helpful bunch of folks)

4x4 Development - Droitwich. Dave Hodgetts is a very knowledgable and helpful chap. Reasonable prices and always sorts the issue out. I used him many a time before my son became a teccy able to sort out my motors. Would have no hesitation in recommending Dave to anyone.

JMW 4X4 - Hartlebury - No experience.
