Red Rhino:
I bought my Land Rovers from Steve at L. Jackson & Co.......the 2 trucks (a 90 and a 110) bought were in Very,Very good condition.We went to L. Jackson & Co. and viewed them while on vacation and compared to all the trucks we saw in Canada of the same vintage there was no comparison. They had an extensive parts department to service there fleet...actually i chose the Cypriot Military Camo soft top from there parts department.....as i did not care for the style of the one that was on my 110 when it was presented by Steve and he graciously allowed my to exhange the old for the new. I also ordered the Goodyear G90s from him and they were installed prior to the 110 leaving the UK....I feel we had very good service from Jackson and would highly recommend them, but if buying a truck i would say it is imperative to go and view what your buying, as there are many grades of trucks to be had...as far as parts, i have not bought to much from Steve, as i know L. Jackson & Co. prefer's to sell vehicle's and not parts....As prices go i paid a premium price but then i got trucks that had be gone thru (to a certain degree) and had very good bodies, frames and running gear. They did need some work, but the work needed was of a personal preferance and not so much that they needed it. Both vehicles flew thru the Inpection process coming into Canada with no faults found at all.
Buying parts trucks would be something i would consider as they have a ton of them.....but then again might be a good idea to look at them as there are all grade's of parts trucks also.
Hope this helps.
