I find my indy better than the main dealers I dealt with - better communication (they actually tell you what they are doing/have done), more enthusiasm, more choice and MUCH cheaper.

Mine also saved us a small fortune by spotting some nasty wear before the warranty was up (which the main dealer sorted and admittedly did a decent job on).

Only major downside is no loan car so I have to drive there and catch the train home! Defender 110XS SW gone... now VW California 180 4 Motion.
