These are the closest to were I live. Geelong Is more convenient in respect that family us near by. Docklands easy in that I can jump on a train easily at Spencer street. Wondering if a Sat morning would be enough time for egr valve.

I live in Geelong, went into Rex Gorrell today for a couple of small minor parts.
Conversation went like this:
Me: Hello, I wonder if I can get blah, blah,blah parts?
Parts Bloke: For which vehicle?
Me: A D2.
Parts Bloke: Whats a D2?....:eek: (Thinking to myself have I just entered a Land Rover Dealer or the Twilight Zone....)
Me: Err... A Land Rover Discovery 2....
After some time of staring at his computer screen, bloke said
they didn't have the parts, said would have to order in, parts were nuts for
one of the exhaust down pipes.Time was near 4.55pm, don't think they
could be arsed to be honest.
Ended up getting them from Super Cheap Auto.....
As I said, I live in Geelong, which is why I get my parts from Melbourne City
Land Rover when I can, if I have to visit the stealers. I always get the
feeling I am being a nuisance by daring to go to the counter and want to
purchase parts for my landy at Rex Gorrell, where as MLR couldn't be more
helpful or friendly.

I did approach one of the sales guys at Rex Gorrells a few years ago (3) and
asked him a few queries regarding a D2. He could not really answer them,
they were not hard technical questions either.I walked awy from there
thinking the guy was just a salesman and knew stuff all about Land Rovers.
So my dealings with Rex Gorrell have not filled me with a lot of faith, but as I said
I only go there for parts when I have to, or will go into MLR in Docklands.
But to be fair I cannot comment on having your Landy serviced by Rex Gorrell
as I have never had them service my vehicle. I use Ritters in Melbourne for
that.
