Stagshaw Land Rover
Stagshaw was born in the North East of England by a group of highly skilled Land Rover enthusiasts. We are passionate about the Land Rover, Range Rover and Defender brand. We have all the knowledge in house to diagnose any issue and the capabilities to undertake any Land Rover or Range Rover associated project.
At Stagshaw, we’re able to perform anything from routine servicing to engine and bodywork repairs. Our mechanics have the skills and equipment to work on any Land Rover, from the early series Land Rovers to the latest production models.
Our speciality is in the Iconic Defender, where we undertake chassis changes, engine swaps, and interior/exterior modifications on a daily basis. However, we are equally at home working on the latest Evoque, Velar, or full-size Range Rover.
Maintain your Land Rover
Your land Rover is one of the most capable vehicles on the road. We aim to keep it that way. Stagshaw are here to keep your vehicle reliable and enjoyable. We’re passionate about doing it right. We follow all the Land Rover approved processes, use only quality approved or genuine Land Rover parts and have all the knowledge, equipment and diagnostic ability to undertake any Land Rover maintenance task from an early series vehicle to the latest generation of luxury offroaders.
We do prefer preventative maintenance than corrective as this has been proven to save both time and costs over the lifetime of a vehicle. Therefore please do not hesitate to contact us if you feel your vehicle is not as it should be or just needs an approved service and MOT. We’re here to help.

What our clients say...
Posted on Google Megan FergusonJuly 28, 2026. Had dinitrol treatment and the guys did a thorough job at a fair price. Thank you!Posted on Google Carl VincentFebruary 8, 2026. I'm very grateful to Josh and his team. I was visiting my parents in the NE in my 110 when the clutch went. They promptly organised a recovery and thereafter I received clear information on costs and timings and the repairs were completed on time at reasonable cost. I was even picked up from the station on a Saturday morning so that I could collect the vehicle before a long drive back to Kent. Friendly, helpful, customer focused and professional. I would recommend them.Posted on Google Ian MorrisonJanuary 12, 2026. Great service from very knowledgeable and friendly team. Had my Discovery Sport recovered to stagshaw following a recommendation from the AA technician. Stagshaw diagnosed the electrical fault within 24 hours and the part was ordered, when the part arrived it was promptly fitted and coded to the car and I had the car back swiftly. I don't normally leave reviews but these guys certainly deserve the feedback. I know that this is similar to other reviews but it my personal experience that I want to share.Posted on Google Ian CunninghamDecember 16, 2025.

Amazing service, honest and so reliable. Couldn’t recommend enough!Posted on Google Alan SilOctober 26, 2025. Josh and his team were recommended to me as Landrover specialists when I had an issue with my Discovery Sport. Taking the car in Josh made an initial suggestion (from my poor explanation of the symptoms) that the turbo was failing and that diagnostic checks would confirm the problem. Full diagnostics including Landrover software confirmed suspicions and that the turbo needed to be replaced. Obviously a big and expensive job however Josh gave me the confidence that this would rectify the problem. Gave a timeframe for completing the job and clear explanation of how it would be done. I explained I was going on holiday shortly and needed the car to tow a caravan. Time was very tight but Josh juggled a few things, and the team got the car back to me two days earlier than expected. I received a follow up call to check all was well with the car and that I got away on holiday ok. I thoroughly recommend Stagshaw for their product expertise, diagnostic capabilities and customer service at what was quite a stressful time for me. I now know that they can also carry out servicing to Landrover spec, including updating the online service record.Posted on Google J DSeptember 2, 2025. Josh, Michael and the Team at Stagshaw are very knowledgeable and provide great customer service. Was wondering where I was going to take my Defender and was more than happy that I came across Stagshaw. All services and minor issues have been dealt with promptly and full explanation of what was required to be or had been done.Google rating score: 4.8 of 5, based on 106 reviews
