The Rover-Landers of BC

Hey guys - looking for a shop in Victoria for my folks. They just picked up a Range Rover classic and were asking me for suggestions on a reliable place to get it serviced.

Jason.
I thought one of the Islanders from the south would have chimed in by now. I live an hour north of Victoria and don't get down there often so I can't help you with this one. Hang in there and I'll see if I can get you an answer.

Hi,
I used to always go to I believe its called Victoria Car Clinic on rockland rd off of Bay street in the industrial block downtown.
good guys and pretty helpful. standard rates but they are reasonable at punching in the clock and always got the work done with no issues.

dont take it to Landrover...

Thanks guys - trying to avoid recommending the dealer to them, so any info will be useful.

Cheers

Jason

And a reply from Dave Harmer:
"Hey Greg, I can recommend two shops in Victoria, one is Dericks Service on 638 John Street, See Derrick or Norman. They are quite the expert on electrical in all vehicles along with all other mechanical repairs. Many a time have i spent many hours cursing and then to take it to Dericks and have them figure it out toot sweet. They have good capable staff there. I have been neighbors with Derick for over 20 years and as much as i hate paying shop rate, when i do, i take it to these guys.
In the alternative, there is downtown auto on 1901 Government street. See Mikey the owner, tell him Dave Harmer sent you, he is a good guy with a good shop and staff.
There are many other shops which are likely fine, but i can vouch for these two.
Cheers
Dave out"

Hi Greg,

I take my 61 109 Land rover to a place called Bristol Motors at 629 Chatham Street, in Victoria. His name is Matt and he does an excellent job and good rates. He does all kinds of older British and European vehicles. Give him a call.
