LOL I just read this post! I even felt like I needed to fix some of the grammar mistakes - this is coming from a guy who's English is his third language!
I was unable to reset my old password so I've created a new account. I'm the same guy who bought a defender from Charles over the phone last year and had it shipped to the US (MSFT - Post on 3rd page)
That same year, I happened to be traveling through the UK and decided to go pay him a visit, collect some money from what he owed me for repairs. On my way to his so-called dealer, I stopped by another defender dealer who happened to be his friend...seems like your friend gave you a heads up that we were heading your way. When we got there, they told us he was in Dubai (No balls). Man! only if you were there when we showed up, it would have been a fun day for us!! don't worry, few more month and we will back to visit, now that we know that you've re-opened your business under a new name.
So flying in from the US, we were expecting to see a dealer, something similar to the picture posted on his website, LOL we drove by that ****hole 5 times before realizing it was "Smiles Land Rover" more like Smile you found a Junkyard/Dumpster! I have to admit, I started laughing, I mean this guy could have kept my money and not shipped my defender.
I mean he never mailed me the paperwork in order for me to register it but I contacted the UK gov and they issued export papers and a V5C.
btw, That orange defender he has posted on his new site, that **** never sold and will never sell, it was supposed to be shipped to a dealer in the US 2 years back!
I have pics of that truck being restored that dates back to 2017!
Charlie Boy - I hope you are reading this, come the spring, we are coming back to the UK to pay you another visit, this time we aren't leaving until we say Hi
