John Craddock Ltd Magazine (General News)

The Land Rover racked up seven decades of motoring in 2018. This milestone was achieved by an abundance of Land Rover spares to keep this famous 4×4 in optimum condition. It is claimed that as many as seventy percent of all Land Rovers ever made are still in use.

Celebrated by enthusiasts, clubs, and the motoring industry collectively. Tributes and celebrations were held by organisations and events around the world in a respectful nod to a British motoring icon and a vehicle which has driven its way into automotive history. There was a Red Arrows fly past over the midlands based Land Rover plants, and seventy vehicles from across its history even paraded up the famous course at The Goodwood Festival of Speed. When an occasion renowned for pure acceleration and speed acknowledges the contribution of probably the slowest car to grace its hallowed hill climb, you know it has a special place in the hearts of petrol heads everywhere.

Land Rover Spares for Defenders and Series Vehicles

What has kept Land Rover going for seventy years, is its straight forward utilitarian design and an abundance of Land Rover spares. The Series and the Defender can be repaired and maintained anywhere and everywhere. Which is why it is as much at home in town as it is in the most rugged of terrains.

Land Rover Spares for Defenders

The Series models evolved gradually to become the Defender we are all familiar with and recognise as a “real” Land Rover. Tough and adaptive, just about any of its Land Rover parts can be replaced, whether this is something small like a headlight bulb, to something major like a chassis, suspension, or bodywork.

The Land Rover has been adapted to all walks of life, from the military, the emergency services, agriculture, expeditions or civilian use. It cuts across perceived class boundaries having been driven by everyone in society. Its adaptability is in no small part down to the enormous range of accessories, protection parts and spares enabling it to perform any number of functions.
