Don't know of any Landcruiser specialists in the midlands but a friend of mine is a 4x4 specialist in Stourbridge that has done some Landcruiser work if that's any use. _________________ Jon m0zxj

I'm off to see Julian at Overland Cruisers for a couple of days this week to bring mine back up to scratch. He's a little way from you (and a longer way from me javascript:emoticon('') but worth the visit to get it right, IMHO.
He also has a strong reputation amongst the overlanding crowd.

Paul at West Coast Offroad up in Southport has many fans & is a very knowledgable character in my dealings with him. _________________ Gav

I would definately recommend Julian, he has forgotten more than most have ever learnt about Land Cruisers. _________________ 1999 Land Cruiser Amazon VX Active 4.2TD Auto

Near Ledbury in Herefordshire - a place called Stretton Grandison (I think that is the village anyway). _________________ 1999 Land Cruiser Amazon VX Active 4.2TD Auto
