Theres a number of people who have sold Land Rover Spares on ebay for years, and have a very good turn over, like you say working from there garage or shed, keeps costs down.

I have been asked many times when will I be opening a shop, not a chance I say I will be bankrupt the first day I open, selling Land Rover only products.

We are happier with our dedicated workshop, with all the facilities and equipment required for fit outs, its all got a fully kitted machine shop and laser cutting , machines

Ebay, e-commerce, shows etc are the way to go, unless you are the likes of ARB. TJM etc. Offer good quality products at a fair price.. with good service.
