The History So Far......
It all started in 1968 when John Craddock purchased a 1948 Series One Land Rover for £50 and like so many
other enthusiasts he was smitten by the charisma of the vehicle: its simplicity, reliability and ability to cover
any terrain in four wheel drive. In the late 60’s and 70’s Land Rover rallying became a popular pastime for
John, who spent many weekends away with the Land Rover clubs.
Back in the day parts for the older Land Rovers were
becoming scarce and the only way to get hold of them, dare
we say it, was to dismantle the older ones for spares.
Fellow enthusiasts were soon purchasing parts from John,
until it became impossible for him to continue supplying
parts in his spare time.
John Craddock Limited became an entity in 1970. However
when your passion becomes your business you source
new old stock items to ensure the vehicle you love is able
to spend many more years surviving and this was true for
John Craddock and John Craddock Ltd who now supply
parts to virtually every country in the world through our
extensive Mail Order business. We supply parts and
accessories for all Land Rover Models from 1948 to
Present date.
Behind the company is a committed team of experts in
Land Rover parts and 4 x 4 wheels and tyres, whose sole
aim is to give you a first class service.
At the premises in Cannock we have an extensively stocked
shop where many of the parts, wheels and tyres are on
show. Behind the shop is a dedicated tyre bay, where we
can supply and fit our vast selection of wheels and tyres for
a wide range of off road vehicles.
We sell second hand Land Rover vehicles which are sold
through the workshop and vehicle sales section which
surround the main building.
Our Service Centre can service your vehicle and our fitting
bay can fit accessories to any model of Land Rover. To aid
diagnosis and provide power upgrades our experienced
mechanics use “Autologic for Land Rover” which enables
us to give a comprehensive and efficient service all at
reasonable rates.
We look forward to hearing from you.
