I use what used to be Morrison’s Land Rover at Bannockburn near Stirling - as a family run business they were great and made you feel like a valued customer but in 2019 the family sold out to John Clark Group aka Pentland and virtually all of the staff who worked there under the Morrison’s banner have moved on and I think only one of the original sales team is still there, the rest are a bunch of unknowns who don’t seem to be interested in engaging with even long term loyal customers because they don’t know a regular customer from a tyre kicker and don’t seem to care.


I’ve bought 11 LRs from the same salesman, I think when he goes I’ll bow out of LR ownership. These new showrooms are just lifeless, cold and clinical. When I bought my first LR from Cupar the showroom was like jungle, trees everywhere and even a fish pond in it. Can’t see Gerry letting that happen anymore. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Well just had a phone call from the dealer, at first I thought he was ringing to give me bad news and that they had missed something off my build but thankfully it wasn't, it was to tell me that my car was built last Thursday and has left the factory with all the bits attached that I had ordered. He reckons I could pick it up mid September, I was going to wait until 1st October but I think the excitement may get the better of me and I'll pick it up as soon as it's ready. Mr. Green Cheers Ian

Yes, the salesman reckons if I had ordered a week later it may have been problematic and he would be ringing about the lack of digital dash etc, so for once it looks like I bought at the right time Cheers Ian

I know that's probably why I'll get it in September instead of waiting Laughing Cheers Ian

Well just heard that my new car has arrived this afternoon at the dealers PDI premises and he is hoping to hand it over either next Friday or the following Monday as there are a few dealer fit accessories to go on Very Happy Cheers Ian
