OFF TOPIC

Hi Sun Worshippers in UK or Australia or New Zealand or India or in the South of Africa or where ever Land Rovers are up and running :cool:

Anybody in this forum who owns a Land Rover similar to mine and would like to give me advice from time to time ?

I need to buy spare parts and you probably guessed that in regard to this Mexico is a white spot on the globe. Nothing to be found.

According to my mechanic who is a 4x4 expert he thinks that there are no more then 10 of this beast in running condition in whole Mexico.

Please contact me via Private message or use my e-mail adress rsfoto@....

Thanks in advance

Rainer

There are lots of Land Rover dealers here Rainer. My sister in laws boyfriend is also a Land Rover specialist and Land Rover racer. Sadly, I don't know him other than Paul from Lincoln :oops:

Hi Alexandra,

Thanks. At the moment I am testing Paddock Spares

https://www.paddockspares.com/about

The prices are reasonable. shipping charges to Mexico are very good and the advantage is I can also pay the import taxes, duties and handling directly to them in UK and so I do not need to fight with the Mexican burocracy ...

At the moment making some test orders and so far the first worked trouble free.

Maybe at the next opportunity you can ask your sister in law if her boyfriend could recommend me another dealer or what he thinks about Paddock Spares ?

Thanks Rainer
