Good independent garages in the Ipswich area? |

Hi all, as per the title, anyone know of a good independent garage in the Ipswich area? LR dedicated would be good.

I used this guy when I was staying down there and found him to be excellent (second only to the legendary Disco Mikey).
Knows his stuff, good technicians and likes a job to be done properly!

Hi haven't used either of these but one in Manningtree is JSF4x4 or there's an indie LRS Engineering in Sible Hedingham. A friend had his belts done at LRS and was happy with the work.

Would love your feedback on whoever you use.

Cheers guys, it’s for a mate who’s just got his first LR, he went for the Freelander 2 despite my nudging this way, my Dennis now has a baby cousin I’ll def get feedback from him on the one he uses. 2008 HSE Stornoway Grey

Wondering if that FL2 could be my old one, as it’s probably been living in that area for the last 3 years
(I part exchanged it for my D4 in Ipswich) 🏴

Do NOT go to the one in Manningtree, myself and 3 others I know have had issues, one of which was potentially very dangerous, I live 1 min drive from there but still take my car to either RST in Mersea or my favourite place (Watkins/Yanman) in frating.

-Looking for next one soon I hope.-

Good to know, thank for the input. I'd forgotten about Mersea.

I use Motorguru in Ipswich whilst the sign above the door says German vehicle specialist Mark the owner looks after quite a few Land Rovers, is the only place I’d recommend in Ipswich for any make of car.
