TH White, Wootton Bassett
Just called up to ask about 7 year service on my Disco 3, really helpful and friendly - and cheap compared to here! Decided to ask a few things about my Defender and even though I'm not about to bring it in (don't be cynical) the chap was extremely helpful - going so far as to point out bits where I should look for corrosion in order to get sorted under the warranty (mud flap brackets, sidesteps...already started there...). He also said to get some Dinitrol on the chassis - dont think his name was Zagato though Laughing .

Anyway, only a phonecall, but good service in any form is always worth mentioning. 2011 Defender 90 SW

Thumbs Up At least you can start again and keep the new replacement stuff rust free. It's things like capping's and rivets which you can't neglect as they are more difficult to replace Sad Only takes a few minutes to spray and wipe with ACF-50 every now and then Thumbs Up

Cambria buys Land Rover dealership in Swindon
"Cambria has bought the Land Rover franchise in Royal Wotton Basset, Swindon from TH White for £7.56m, including £3m for goodwill.

This is Cambria’s second Land Rover franchise. In July last year it bought a Land Rover and Jaguar business in Barnet North London from Lookers for £10.5m.

Cambria plans to relocate the Swindon business to a redeveloped site alongside its existing Jaguar dealership in Swindon. The new combined facility will be developed over the next two years.

The dealerships made estimated pre-tax profits of £700,000 on £32m turnover in the last financial year."

Hopefully the move will not compromise quality of service? My dealings with them have been excellent with regards to their parts department and advice. I also bought their ex-demonstrator nearly 7 years ago.
