I was going to suggest Ultimate Land Rover too, I've been using their services since the warranty ran out on my motor.

They are a hell of a lot cheaper that Stratstones and the standard of their work is first class.

Alternatively, you could try LRX Servicing (07855 308007 or 07976 403534), which is over towards the other side of Birmingham, somewhere near Chelmsley Wood I think. A few guys at work have recommended them to me but it is too far for me to travel, especially as Ultimate Land Rover is so close. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.
