Barnwell Motor Engineering (BME) are Land Rover specialists with a LR Factory Computer (Same as the main dealers). They are at Blakelands Milton Keynes, google them. I have there number but not sure if I'm meant to put that on here or not?

Thanks Markynicholls, I was hoping to find somewhere closer to home, Mk is about 20miles and I don't want to risk driving that far with collapsed suspension. I'll give them a call if I can't find anyone closer though. Thanks again
I've found 2 PJ Hodge & sons and IAWA Classsics does anyone have any experience of these two garages??1965 SWB Series II

You could try Rockingham LR its just the other side of Corby on the big hill down into the village if that any closer for you

Thanks Gaz.
The garage I bought it from has agreed to recover it and get it fixed under warranty so for now hopefully I'm sorted.
Thanks to everyone for their suggestions I have the feeling I might be asking lots of questions in the coming months and years 1965 SWB Series II
