Would anybody help me find a good Land Rover independent in Devon (specifically East Devon) as up to now the ones I have used have been nothing short of woeful.

I used to live in the east mids and my go to independent was a place called Farriers Automotive who were nothing short of impeccable. Great front of house team with excellent comms, first class engineers led by the owner and their understanding of Range Rovers was excellent. I have considered having the car transported back to them for works but this will just prove too time consuming/costly hence my asking.....

Can anyone share some regional knowledge/experience?

Perhaps a little too far but C W Feltham are superb.

Interesting on Beacon as I found them to be absolutely useless.......and I had such high hopes!

Reception area cluttered with crap/boxes of customer parts.
Didnt even bother doing the work I had asked them to do.
Technician ragged the car back into the yard after a 'test drive' - right in front of me.


Wont return.

Main Dealership? They will still rag your car and do what they want to it but the reception area is nice!

Original request - 'Independent'

I wont go near a JLR main dealer owing to previous encounters with their 'technicians'........

(but yes I imagine they still rag customers cars around!)
