Land Rover Shop Recommendations please

I need some work done on my 02 Disco II. I have always used the dealer but the CPO is gone and I don't want to pay their price. I live in Bothell so anything on this side of town would be preferred.

Help please!

They are generally not thought of as reliable... I had a few that were fine though

95 range rover classic swb
97 defender

Never any major problems

Always wanted a defender. I was wondering if the newer ones, range rover sport, are reliable?

I plan to use Biggs when the time comes. I've heard nothing but good things about those guys and my Rover has been mostly reliable since I've gotten it 6 years ago.

Biggs takes care of our 1999 RR Callaway.

I would use no one else period.

And yes they can be reliable as hell....or not.

A friend of mine used Woodinville Sports Cars for her Jag... they seemed pretty good from the few times I went in there. I would assume they would work on Rovers also.

I had a 94. Super cool, rough as a DD. I put 40K miles on it and sold it for $6k more than I paid for it! That will probably never happen again. Wish I was in a position then to keep it as a weekend car.
