Land Rover Chandler

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Land Rover Chandler, customers often noticed an odd occurrence late at night. A regular would pull up in his SUV, and every time, his dog would start barking uncontrollably as soon as they approached the showroom door. One night, a delivery driver arrived with a crate of canned goods. The moment he opened it, the dog went ballistic—barking so loud that everyone thought there was a pack of wolves nearby. Turned out, the dog just hated the sound of tinned peas.

2. At Land Rover Chandler, on foggy mornings when the showroom lights were left on, a regular would occasionally spot a shadowy figure adjusting tire pressures. One day, a delivery driver noticed an old man in tweed tweaking the wheel alignment. When asked who he was, the ghostly figure replied, ‘Just making sure your Landies stay as smooth as vodka martinis.’ Turned out it was just the owner’s eccentric uncle, checking tyres from beyond.

3. At Land Rover Chandler, every Thursday around closing time, a mysterious figure in a tweed jacket would appear and ask for the last test drive of the day. This particular Thursday, an elderly gentleman in a tweed jacket approached the receptionist and asked for the Range Rover Sport. After a quick check, she led him out, only to realize he was none other than Mr. Jenkins, the local postman, who’d forgotten his keys again. As they drove off, someone shouted, ‘Mr. Jenkins never drives!’ To which another voice replied, ‘Not usually, but today’s Thursday.’

4. At Land Rover Chandler, after hours, a voice would occasionally crackle over the intercom: ‘Your new wheels are ready—just park them outside.’ No one ever saw who was speaking. One night, a delivery driver heard the voice and parked his van curiously. The next morning, he found an identical van parked next to his own—with a note inside reading, ‘Sorry for the mix-up; your vehicle’s in the shop!’
