Dungog Defender

[Beckford]

Spotted this one in Dungog, NSW on the weekend.

The owner is probably on here?

Beckford.

Dunno about that vehicle, but Dungog must be the LR capital of Australia.

Modern Motors was (is) very highly regarded - used to be a LR Dealer until LR went through its irrational "rationalisation" program.

My RR LSE lives down that way now... funny since we drove it down there 4 years ago for our honeymoon too !

It used to be very highly regarded and I used to get my defender worked on thier and had them fit LPG on my D1.The best blokes have left and the people thier now don't really know much. Pat

Hi Pat303, the business is still run by the same people with years of Land Rover experience so I can't agree that they don't know much.Cheers, 130man.

130man I wanted them to change the oil and filter in my Td6 RR after driving across from WA and they had never seen and new nothing about the Td6.They didn't know the Td6 at all and tried to tell me it was a TDV6.Also the last I heard Derreck was working in Singleton and he was the best mechanic there.

[130man]

Pat303, I agree that doesn't sound encouraging.Derrek was certainly a very good mechanic.Unconfirmed rumour suggests he may not be in Singleton any more, so I may have lost track of him at the moment.Cheers, 130man.

I bought my P38A from Modern Motors.
