Default Mechanic Suggestion for Fairfax, VA

Hello: I am not sure if this query is appropriate for this forum. If not, please feel free to ignore or direct me in the right direction. I am moving to Fairfax, VA in the near future and am looking for a REPUTABLE and REASONABLE independent mechanic who can work on my 2004 Disco II. I am looking for someone to do various repairs, the 65K service, and also to possibly install a 2" lift.

Any recommendations would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Vinsona

There are a number of them...in order of my preference:
1. Capitol Motorcars in Purcellville (30-45mins from Fairfax) - best and most reasonable - in my opinion (i would go here first)...also owns a heavily moded Disco and a great guy to boot....Capitol Motorcars of VA 540-338-2211
2. Loudoun Rover - out on rte 50 (has an advert here) and is reputed to be very good and knowledgable Loudounrover Northern Virginia USA
3 Roverland 4x4 - never dealt with them - independent store, seem to have a good website and some good advise on website. Maybe someone else can comment. Roverland 4x4

Hope that helps.

Jonesy: Thanks for this. I am pulling the disco out of storage after a year in moth balls. I am sure that there will be some things that have mysteriously stopped working and will take it to Capitol motorcars per your advice!

Thanks,

vinsona

There used to be a really good guy at the LR dealer at Tysons Corners who left and opened his own shop. I'll see if I can find his card.

Check out airpark rovers in Gaithersburg MD. Best mechanics in this area and the prices are very competitive. Worth the drive...
