About Us

Newbury 4x4 Centre

Newbury 4x4 Centre was first established in 1981 as an independent specialist in Land Rover, Range Rover and other 4x4’s by Steve & Sue Pocock. Over the years the company has built up a strong reputable reputation for outstanding workmanship, providing an excellent service to their customers at a competitive price which has been driven by good old fashion values.

Jason started off as an apprentice back in 1985 and was given the opportunity in July 2013 when Steve retired to take over the business with his wife Debbie. The business has grown under new ownership & in 2018 has enabled the business to expand to new premises just off Pipers Way in Thatcham, Berkshire.

We are a family run business with a professional and friendly approach. Our highly skilled team of technicians have a wealth of experience with over 90 years experience between them, on all makes and models of the Land Rover and Range Rover brands, offering a range of services from annual servicing, repairs, air conditioning and vehicle diagnostics using the latest dedicated software.
