Any insight on shops in the metro Richmond area that service Land Rovers?

Have my first Land Rover 2003 Discovery II, looking to add rack, brush guard, lights, and needs new tires.

Also Disco has issues with "Three Amigos"

Thank you in advance!

x2. I worked with Drew for 7 years at the dealership in Richmond. He quit the dealership same week I did last year.

Thanks again.

Drew is the only LR tech there, so if he gets a big job it can push the schedule back.

I don't think you would be disappointed with Drew's work. This is the latest project...

LOL
You'd likely not find anyone who knows more about Rovers than him!
^^ Interesting BMW project there ^^

And Drew is also brutally honest.

M52 engines were stock in South African defenders....why is it so impressive to put it in a similar vintage truck?

That's why they are doing it. I believe its the shop owners truck and he is a BMW guy. The shop only works on BMW, Mini, and Rovers.

There was an M52-powered Classic on Craigslist not too long ago...

How about an LSX 427-powered e39 wagon? A little over 400hp at the wheels...

Oh snap!

i think that was the guy on pirate.

ive seen kits to swap an LS into BMW's. i prefer the big block 454's swapped into 928's. to each their own i guess.

i love the rationale, i put an LS in there because the parts are cheaper....

That guy is right here in Stuarts Draft. I've seen the truck around a bit.

I prefer 928s' at the bottom of lakes and ponds.
