Atlantic British is GREAT!!! - Land Rovers Only

LANDY96 · 02-14-2006, 09:58 AM

I just wanted to share my experiance with you about Atlantic British. I purchased a brake repair kit in December. This included 4 rotors, and the brake shoes for them, along with seals and such. Long story short, I started getting shaking while braking, after about 6 months of driving. This progressively got worse until I just couldn't stand it. It was also unsafe to drive. I came to the conclusion that my front rotors were warping.

I was going to just have them turned but realized that cannot be done.

So I called Atlantic British about the problem, after our conversation I ended up with two new rotors being sent to me.

These people are great to deal with, that is the way to do good business!!

Yes sir. They can be overpriced on certain things but nothing like good service. I normally deal with Lester and more recently, Chad

Sh#t that would be awesome! Luckyb'stard!

They have always been great to me also, and it's great that almost everything in the catalog or online is in stock. I hate waiting for two or three extra weeks to get a project done.

lol..I know...Lester drives a Miata, and Chad drives an H2!!!!!! I think there's only one guy that has a white P38

apbtpetey · 02-15-2006, 01:37 PM

I have used them alot for parts and Ihave always been happy with their service.

I am lucky to be within driving distance as well. Not as close as beezel, but about 1 hour north of me

Well, we have one employee who doesn't drive a Rover... you can't win 'em all.

LANDY96 · 03-02-2006, 08:40 AM

I installed them last night with new calipers!! WOW!!!! No shaking anymore. YEA!!! I can actually enjoy driving this thing again!! Isn't it weird that when things get fixed, your car suddenly feels like it's brand new again!!!

I think I live roughly an hour away from AB (at least thats what MAPQUEST says)
I'd love to take a ride out there and check the place out.
Heading up to D.A.P in the near future for a "once over" on the Disco.
