Just had mine done and it's listed as being 2 1/2 hours from start to finish. Depends how long they take to start it from you dropping it off though... Mine ended up taking 1 1/2 days!!
(My service wasn't done by Yeovil LR)

Wow. Those must be some Christmas lights they switched on Friday evening, then... Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

In the rearview mirror  I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

More for Nick. Now have a functioning wing mirror, new rear wiper blade and PAS fluid at the level it should be. Also nice to catch up with Kieron (Business Manager) who nipped out for a chat and to ask after the Defender he sold me a couple of months back.
Sadly I missed DrLex, who had been in earlier 
Cheers again to Nick and Kieron.  I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I'll echo the sentiments of Al & Dom with regard to Nick and his crew; a warranty replacement of the load cover was nary too trivial for him and the paper trail it generated.

Why? Was it my round? Perhaps we can have a LightForce party when Iain gets his group buy & fit going. Happy Friday, all. Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

Now there's a thought 
No, just would have been nice to put a face to a name.  I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

I think Yeovil will be getting my visit when the time comes. It's only 80 miles away and it is rare (if not unique) to find a garage that gets this much praise.
Also it is amazing to find somebody like Nick who is obviously enthusiastic about his job and spends time on here helping people out. Not seen it on any of the other forums I have been on for other cars.
