    Welcome to the forum, it's mostly Landy nutters like yourself on here

    Regarding UK suppliers, there are several good ones that will be recommended on this forum.
    Personally, my favorite UK supplier is Rimmer Bros, mainly because they give you a choice of genuine, OEM, or aftermarket parts. I usually go for OEM because they are the same quality as genuine, but considerably cheaper.

    Cheers, Murray

    I buy nearly all my service and spare parts from Mario and Heather at Roverlord - they are forum members here and not only have lots of parts, they have great product knowledge as well

    I find https://www.lrdirect.com/ very good. They usually have a range of options on any given part (genuine, OEM, Bearmach, etc), the online store automatically calculates shipping costs (as opposed to, say, Paddocks), and shipping is generally less than a week. Only short coming I find is that they don't offer a lot in the way of upgrades or accessories.

    I will raise some eye brows with my reply but for some parts you may ask your local LR dealer. I built up a good relationship with mine and get business discounts and they are easy to deal with. Surely for some parts they are overpriced but on other parts they can easily match the independent suppliers, particular if you want Genuine Quality parts. Just my opinion. m
