Here at Canterbury Landrover we are specialists in servicing and repairing all makes and models of Land Rovers. We are enthusiastic and passionate about providing the highest quality service.
Aidan Blanchard
With a love of tinkering with all things mechanical as a young fella – from his first bike, to his Dad’s lawnmower then onto his first motorbike and car, Aidan has a passion for automotive and engineering.
Back this up with 30+ vehicles in search of the ultimate machine. Aidan finally found Landrover and Project Land Rover was born. With the recent purchase of Canterbury Land Rover we have everything you need from advice, service and parts and a ‘nothing is a problem attitude’. For those that have a soft spot for these rugged machines combined with a touch of class, Canterbury Landrover is here ‘for the love of the Land Rover’.
Aaron Johnson
Hi, I’m Aaron. I’m new to the car industry. My background is in the Tourism and Hospitality industry but for the past 7 years I operated my own Greenacres lawn and garden franchise. I’ve owned a couple of Landrovers and am about to start restoring a Series 2a. I look forward to helping with your servicing requirements.
Mike Walmsley
Hi, I’m Mike. I’ve been in the Automative Parts industry since I left school at 16 (except for a couple of years off for good behaviour). That’s 41 years. I’ve worked for most major franchises and have approx. 9 years of Landrover experience. I know that the avid series owner will know more about their car than I will, but I eventually figure it out. Outside of work I skate, surf and snowboard with my teenage children and my wife Michelle. I also became madly interested in classic motorbikes and Moto GP while restoring Michelle’s 1971 Mini 850. I will endeavour to keep your Landy on the road as long as possible.
Nate Outram
Hi, I’m Nate. I’ve been working on Landrovers for 10 years and also completed my automotive apprenticeship on Landrovers. I have a huge interest in all things mechanical, from old steam engines to modern technology. I enjoy modifying vehicles from installing winches to engine conversions and also going bush for a bit of 4WD in my Series 2 – 88 inch.
