Review
"A well written book by an author who obviously knows these vehicles well and has assembled a wealth of information. If you are contemplating buying a coil sprung Land Rover, the cost of this book may well be regarded as insurance, as it has a chapter devoted to buying advice and the things to look for." – New Zealand Four Wheel Drive Association Inc.
"If you are just starting to think about modifying your off roader, this will make an excellent start." – Range Rover Owner & Enthusiast
