    Hi Noddy,

    it really depends on where you are staying. Any of the LR specialists will be ok for a service, however some of them (like Rovertech) are usually very busy and might need a couple of weeks notice!

    Northern suburbs try Discovery Autos, near Perth Rovertech or Britparts/Purcells (British Motors now I think?)

    Cheers

    Noddy,
    Give Kevin at Rovertech a call, has had over 35 years experience with Landrovers and knows his stuff. Mention my name and I promise he won't throw you out.
    He is good to talk to if you have queries on any aspect of your vehicle and won't rip you off.
    I know him well and know his work and supporting service.
    His phone no: 93505633.
    How long will you be in Perth for?

    Trouble with Dave Purcell at Brit parts is that he is out in Welshpool which is a pia for a non local. He is good though. My guy is North Perth Prestige which is very close to the CBD. (I believe he worked previously for the big LR dealer in Sydney, dunno if that's a good thing or not. He does LR MGF Jags and Volvos as well) I have not had a long relationship with him but so far so good. He will be servicing my Defender on Monday & I have no probs recommending him for that job. It's a small outfit and he does all the work.

    A mate has used Guest & Puddey in West Perth for a squillion years he likes them. Big big Rover out fit - you go in and are relieved to see lots of Defenders I'm told. Their next TD5 service will not be their first. I'd use them myself but this new guy is walking distance from my house and my office. So I'm mad not to give him a good go.

    I'm not suggesting these people as being better than previous suggestions but I think they are more convenient for the visitor to Perth.

    I'll PM my details and you can call if you need a hand or a favour while you are here.
