Give Team Valley a ring up in Gateshead, you will get a good price and you could book it in for a Saturday morning. Take all the family with you drop off the car at TVLR and the chaps will give and the family a lift to the Metro Centre, Mrs P could spend all the money you have saved in the shops and the kids (and possibly you) could have a great time in the amusement park, get picked up at the end of the day all done, happy and content, Mrs with new cloths / shoes kids falling asleep and you happy with all the money you could have saved.

United Kingdom 2015 Freelander 2 SD4 SE Auto Orkney Grey

2nd service completed by Stratstone's of Cheltenham - they price matched an Indy (Tim Fry) and I got the job done including courtesy car for £270.40. They also valeted my car and made a reasonable job. All in all well pleased and have LR dealer stamps in the book.

Follow up call this morning hoping that I was pleased with everything so Thumbs Up to Stratstone's of Cheltenham.

Surprised that the courtesy car was a Ford Mondeo Confused MY 09 GS manual in Lago Grey, Wood Co arm rest and side bumper strips - now sold.

The last 3 are leeds indies but all (as their names suggest) are LR specialists employing LR trained techs. To be honest if anyone quoted any less I'd be getting nervous!


Hello all... have just read this post and am wondering..?
my next (2nd) service is due in 01/12
and leeds is not far..

can anyone recomend any of these independant service guys ..??

Lewis 4x4 Neath - Didn't bother getting back to me
Swansea Vale 4x4 - £280 (they did my 1st service and was happy, so going back there again)

Just had a quote from Stratstone Newcastle for second service - £497!!! Used them last year and their customer service is shocking! Phoned Team Valley Land Rover and their price is £318 including VAT and free courtesy car!
Even though stratstone price match locally their customer service experience from last time puts me off!!

Hi Murph

I have only had good experiences with Team Valley Thumbs Up , really helpful chaps and worth the 70 mile round trip, Sratsones could learn a thing two from them when it come to customer service.

2009 Freelander 2 TD4_e GS Manual Stornoway Grey

Just paid £492.43 at Barretts in Ashford (Kent). No loan car (one offered but didn't need it). Bill says 'free wash and vacuum'. Wasn't done, car was quite clean when I took it in, but the flies on the front were still there when I collected it.

Another niggle, this doesn't necessarily apply only to LR, but why are the heating/ac controls always either turned to ice cold and either the fan turned off or switched to max. I accept that they may need to switch the CC off or change it to check that it's working, but why not put it back to the customer's setting when finished?
