I've had good service from Turner Engineering, LRDirect, Paddocks and a couple of others from the UK as well.

I do miss George at Rovers Down South - it was always fun to pick up the phone and give him a call.

LRDirect for sure. Terrafirma diff guards $45 cheaper each than stateside, and $43 total for DHL express international shipping. That's 3-day shipping from the U.K. to California for $43.

ETA: I ordered some stuff from them about a week ago. Steering guard I couldn't find here. It shipped last Monday from Bristol, England, and was delivered to my house in So Cal on Wednesday afternoon. $48.00.

I can't even get shit shipped from the East Coast on anything but eBay for that price, for 35# (15.5kg).

Hello everyone,

I am back to say THANK YOU for all the references on Will Tillery

"Will" has far exceeded any expectations, I have ever had doing business online with a person I don't really know much about.

After the first delivery, he has been right there to guide me on any needs - as for me - I too have been bitten by the Rover Bug - I saw the vehicle as a daily driver, but as I work on it more and more - I am finding myself bonding with this oil leaking beast.

As far as Will Tillery is concerned, Please let this forum post string become a resource for all new-comers on this forum. Will has proven himself to be trust-worthy, knowledgeable, and RELIABLE. I sent him CASH 1900 miles away - he could have walked - but he did the right thing.

His prices blow away just about any LR site I have been too. He delivered as promised - to describe the transaction - its like doing business with the " Rover Whisperer" this guy knows his stuff. Whats most important is that he is a rare find in this world. Now a days, good people are hard to find.

I have never personally met him, but via telephone and email - I can't say enough good things about Will Tillery. Some parts arrived the next day, some on Sunday, some arrived before I even paid him - the guy is a Rover Part Ninja. You will not be sorry if you use Will for anything.

Thanks again to all for the references on Will - I hope this forum string brings Will a lot more business in the future. He has earned my business hands down.

Happy New Year!

I recently bought some stuff from Randy Williams (Roverover) and was very pleased with the products and service.

I have had excellent service from a lot of vendors.

For used parts, I am impressed with the service provided by Joel Mercer, Will Tillery, and Marty Powell.

PT Schram will discuss Rover resurrection and maintenance methods over the phone for hours and sends free parts. Ha.

If I want new parts, Eric Riston at AB is lightning fast with getting parts to my door. I can also count on whoever is available for the phone at Lucky 8 (it varies) to get me parts for great prices and quick. I also have ordered from Zack at RN and was happy with their service.

Outside of just sales, I have met and driven trails with Eric Riston at AB and Joel Mercer and they guided me in my D2 off road on multiple occasions. The Lucky 8 crew is always doing events for the community too.

I have enjoyed working with all these vendors and plan to continue doing so. They are all well-established in the community and have proven themselves to me.

Cheers!

I've got the thank Will Tillery too - he's simply awesome and my most favorite parts provider for my 2003 Disco restoration project - so far I've purchased a engine wiring harness, alternator, dash, and rear tailgate - all have been outstanding no issues he even sent me a new wiper for the tail gate - highly recommend you contact Will if you need Disco parts!!!!

That's Will for you. In Jeremy Clarkson voice - Some say they have received parts from him before they even knew they needed them. He's that good.

I have had great help, advice, and support from Flying Circus English Cars in Durham, NC [https://flyingcircusenglishcars.com/ 2308 E Pettigrew St, Durham, NC 27703] Toby & Sara Briggs (Brother & Sister).

If you are in the greater Cackalacky area and need some help, give them a call. I cannot recommend them enough.

Their history with rovers goes back actual generations:

"Siblings Toby and Sarah Briggs own and operate Flying Circus. Their involvement with English cars continues a long family tradition. As a young man, father Alan Briggs was apprenticed as a draughtsman to Morris Motors Engines Branch in Coventry. The Engines Branch made engines and transmissions for Morris cars and trucks back when Coventry was the English equivalent of Detroit. Alan moved up to production efficiency management at the Engines Branch and later consulted for TRW and Jaguar.

Mother Patricia Briggs grew up near Coventry, daughter of a Rover car dealer. Great Grandfather John Hill and his brother built horse-drawn carriages and, later, did custom coachwork at their Hill Brothers Coach Builders in Warwick from the early 1900s to just after World War II.

Grandfather Alan Huckvale operated H and H Transport (later H and H Motors) selling and servicing Rovers and other English cars in Kenilworth from the 1930s to the 60s. And Uncle Gerald Huckvale retired from his own garage in Bredon, Gloucestershire"

I bought a Jaguar from them in 2010 or so. They gave it to me with the low fuel light on.
