Hi,

since they didn't have their own thread it would be remiss of me not to start one

Just another pat on the back for James Tayler at Charles Hurst for sorting me out with my lovely RRS.

Kam pointed me at them and after initial call, they were really good at keeping in touch by phone and email and letting me know how things were going.

I do have a question for any dealers, why do they insist on putting their dealer label on the back window when it's privacy glass? Can't actually see it unless you're about a foot away!

Cheers

Standard PDI activity I suppose - mine was the same

At least it's not so blatant as what they used to do with old Freelanders and stick their name all over the spare wheel cover on the back door!

I've just taken delivery of a TDv8 purchased through Kam from James Tayler/Mark Pellet at Charles Hurst. A great experience with extremely thorough and professional handover procedure. The introduction to all the bits on the HSE spec over my previous SE was very thorough and Mat gave a great explanation of all the toys that I am not used to having. All in all it was well worth travelling from the the other end of the UK for this superb "buying experience" and as I make frequent trips to London when I am on leave I will even take them up on the offer to try them for servicing in 12 months time. Many thanks to Kam and his team and James and his team at Park Royal for the great service I have received from all of you. And James you even managed to find me a car that was not shod with the awful Continentals that I had on my v6SE. While I am not a huge fan of Pirellis, they can only be a whole heap better than the Continentals I have been used to!
Oh and the Charles Hurst windscreen sticker was removed by James before I left the showroom "because it was not on straight" Now I have to find a nice quiet corner of the New Forest to park up in and read the owners manual over the weekend and before I head north to Scotland again:blub: 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Congrats Tim.. great write up.
Thanks for the shout out, and glad James/Mark looked after you very well.

Dear Chris, Tim & Kam,

Thank you very much indeed for the positive feedback and we are really pleased that you are enjoying the new Sports. Sorry it has taken so long to respond, but I've only just got around to signing up following a busy few months here. Obviously now that I have a sign-on, I am happy to help with any advice or questions that the members may have from a dealership perspective!

We are also trying to become site sponsors (ref Martin's discussions with our Marketing Manager), so fingers crossed, you may see a little more of us on the forum.

Thanks again,

James Tayler
