I am pleased to announce that Lookers Park Royal (LPR) have returned to the forum as site sponsor.

For those of you who have been members for a while, you may remember that LPR was a sponsor from 2008 until I moved to another dealership in late 2012, at which point LPR’s interaction fizzled out slightly!

So, after just under two years away from LPR I have now returned as General Manager, and what a time to re-join!! Not only are we soon to be launching the Discover Sport, but as a dealership we are nearing the final stages of building our new Jaguar Land Rover facility. Our new dealership is planned to open in the New Year just 100m from the current location in West London. It will be spread over three floors, will boast a 60+ car JLR showroom, 27 bay technical facility, and a hugely impressive Service Reception foyer meaning that dropping your car off for service will be more akin to arriving at a hotel. Clearly we will be inviting all forum members to come and see the new facility when it opens in early 2015! I will give you regular updates over the coming weeks and months as the development goes through its final stages.

In the meantime, we are on the usual telephone number 0208 992 2299 and would love to hear from you should you need anything. My role has changed slightly meaning that I am not always on site at the dealership or have access to PM’s etc, therefore for any specific requirements please feel free to contact one of the team as follows for a swifter response:

Barry Palmer – New Car Sales Manager – barrypalmer@lookers.co.uk
Spencer Lang – Used Car Sales Manager – spencerlang@lookers.co.uk
Rob Davis – Finance Manager – robdavis@lookers.co.uk
Gary Foxley – Service Manager – garyfoxley@lookers.co.uk
Andy Harding – Parts Manager – andrewharding@lookers.co.uk

If you could put ‘Forum Member’ in the subject of any emails then it would be appreciated.

We really look forward to engaging with the forum again and bringing you news from both the dealership and Land Rover.

Hello James

Could you please assist me to get a print out of the Lookers service history for my Freelander.
I recently purchased a MY2009 TD4 from an independent dealer local to me, it had one owner and was supplied and serviced by Lookers from new. I have the service record book with 5 Lookers Battersea service stamps but no details. I have spoken to the previous owner who has no further details but has emailed me to say that the request may made be on his behalf if necessary.
As the car has done only 43k miles I do not want to assume which tasks have been carried out, also any service bulletins etc.
I could pm you with copies of V5 doc, service record pages, previous owner's email + tel contact.

kind regards David

Interesting - I was going to say that you can get the online service history yourself from Land Rover - I did this myself in December following instructions I found on this forum. However the URL I used then no longer exists... Maybe James can enlighten us? Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
300TDi Disco (bought new - terrible car) sent back after 18 months
Freelander 1 Estate - leased, given back at end of lease
200TDi Disco (bought from a mate with 100,000 on the clock) - Gone
Disco 2 TD5 - sold and exported to France
FR2 TD4 GS - Gone
FR2 SD4 HSE - Now changed for a DS
New model ex-demo Evoque S 180 in white
Unable to order a new DS, so gave up. Now have a Volvo S90 Recharge.
