Anyone an idea of the average cost of replacing rear sub-frame bushes at a LR specialist not a dealer?. I will be getting parts myself.

No idea but ask the garage if it's OK to supply your own parts as some will refuse to fit customer supplied parts. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Agreed. Never supply parts. If they fail, you'll pay twice.

You don't take your own bun to McDonalds and ask them to stick a burger in it. 2012 (L322) 4.4TDV8 Vogue SE, RSE, Fuji White over Arabica.

Sytner in Portsmouth quoted me about £1750 last year
Which actually was a lot less than my independent

I was quoted £700 roughly about 18 months ago by a LR specialist in Surrey - I’ll dig out the details, they said it would be a full days work.

I didn’t take them up on it at the time as it wasn’t an MOT fail when inspected but it was significantly cheaper than my local garage.
