Anthony, I don't know of any in Toronto but I thought I'd offer some suggestions of general places to look. Look for independent Jag shops. They seem to also do LR stuff too, at least that's what I noticed here in Edmonton. There's only a couple of them here but their rates are lower than the LR dealers and it seems that they seem to get LR's through their shop a fair bit. The other source I've found are restorers. These guys mostly work on Series trucks but they also will work on the newer trucks like the Discos and Rangies. |

A bit of a hike, but not too far (depending on where in Toronto you are). There's a guy outside of Niagara-on-the-Lake in Queenston. Nice guy. Lots of rovers. Paul Safari Components P.O. Box 39 Queenston Street Ontario, Canada L0S 110 416-262-4446 |

www.discotech4x4.com Won't screw you and will let you help if you have time. left LR and started his own shop, done a trek, and I think he may once been selected top LR tech in North America |

I took my Disco to DiscoTech 4x4. The guy is fantastic. He charged me next to nothing for fixing some problems I've been having of late. I would highly recommend them over any dealer. He only charges $65/hr (Can) with NO flat rates, and no mark up on LR parts. He worked for Landrover as a service manager/technician so he knows his way around a LR thats for sure. He will let you watch as he works on your baby. They also have service classes and off roading trips all over Ontario and Quebec. I will never set foot in a LR dealership again. Gilles is my guy! |
