Good evening,

We are seeking to find anyone who has had problems with dealing with the named guy Paul Andrew Moir who is running the above businesses although image4x4 was dissolved in December 2016 he has still be trading with it.

We purchased a series 3 nut and bolt rebuild back in November 2019, he started in January 2020, was told to insure it for August 2020 as that's when it would be completed (delays with parts due to covid 19 so he blames) with a valuation of £35.000 on the understanding Paul Moir would complete this paperwork for the insurance company, since August 2020 we have constantly been chasing him for completion date, he then agreed Oct 2020, then December 19th 2020, even though he knew full well it wouldn't be completed as he hasn't done nothing on it. He did no work all summer due to me refusing another payment, I requested to pull out but he said it was too late so had to pay up the next installment and was worried would lose what we already had invested.

We visited weekly and nothing had changed even staff members were asking where parts were that we had paid for were so could work on it.

Unresponsive communication via text or email & phone calls, just kept working on other land rovers but mine was only one that was paid up for. Then texted promising Jan 2021 - date then missed again.

Feb 21 - nothing else completed.
Easter week 21 we visited - told we wanted to take the land rover out and take it elsewhere, he said it was just days away from completion.
End of April - still working on others..
May 2021 - visited weekly but progress so very very slow.
June 2021 - no reason why it won't be ready by 4th June 2021 - failed date yet again, still parts missing to finish.

Couldn't get it collected due to him not having the wheels, dispute us contacting the garage where they were, to be told been ready 6 months just not paid for them even though we paid in advance.

Friday 22nd June - last straw told him we were pulling it out next Friday to make sure it would be ready for Friday 29th.

Collection day - 29th June luckily we had ordered wheel nuts, good job as we arrived to find only 2 on per wheel, no steps which where paid for by us plus many other parts missing.

Collected Friday 29th and took it to a local garage, MAJOR MOT FAILURE.

It's gunna cost THOUSANDS to fix all the things that are wrong.

He emailed last week saying good luck for the future and has now declated himself bankrupt.

I'm on with solicitors etc but just looking for other people who have experienced a bad service, I've found a few on the internet, how he keeps getting away with ripping geniune hardworking people off.

Thank you so much
He is back open for business in hull sadly after his bankruptcy
 
He had a letter from Landrover Advising him not to use hull Landrover [centre or whatever his latest brainwave was.

I doubt he’s advertising directly because he’s not yet bankrupt.

strike that! He is morally bankrupt!


QUOTE="Hippo, post: 5250006, member: 13135"]What does he advertise under?
Hull landrover centre?

He hasn't changed any of the business signs outside his Daltry street unit. 1st left off roundabout. Unit has been open since last month.
Sold his house in June 2021 and then within 2 weeks after that went bankrupt, shut his unit down and waited a few months and has reopened it with a mate.

Regardless of what this guy has been up to, I dont think you should be posting his home address on the open internet
 
Hes ripped a massive amount of people off anything from 20 to 30 grand plus with no intention even doing vehicles just kept grabbing noney giving em all same bull**** story , 20 years in jail wouldnt be enough for him bad bad man will come back to him one day pure scum ,,
 
I’m not trying to be a smart arse but a company regularly doing expensive refurbishments shouldn’t need money up front for anything. They should have accounts with suppliers with 30 day deferred payment and it’s unlikely it would take 30 days to fit them. If I was ever in such a situation there is no way I’d part with any money until given at least photos of progress. I never mind giving a deposit but always on a credit card for security.
 
Has anyone had any feedback regarding solicitors or police as yet ,,been talking to a few on here ,,horror stories what he has done peoples life savings he has taken ,,hes left some in stress and illness over it , and i reckon he will sleep well on a night over it too what he has done

It is perhaps less concerning that someone posts the mans address which has already been made public on the Insolvency Service website, in addition to his address perhaps we should also be adding that we don't think Paul Andrew Moir t/a IMAGE4X4 should have defrauded and/or stole and/or financially injured and/or misrepresented himself to so many people so that he could con them out of their hard earned savings by :
  • threatening Landyzone for allowing this https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-ro...h-image-4x4-before.322014/page-2#post-4193474 conversation to happen, the only reason he could have validly used as a legal threat is where several previous commenters referred to all his previously closed businesses and how doing so in and of itself constituted a fraud. While it is certainly questionable and odd behaviour it is not illegal. He attempted to shut this chat down on that secondary point which had the added and primary benefit of removing all the negative reviews, comments and absolute horror stories from his victims. Being a victim myself and knowing many many others directly now, I can confirm that there is a huge mass of evidence which directly align with all the previous comments which flagged Paul Moir as the conman he most certainly is.
  • I am also aware that there was a substantial negative reviews about Paul Andrew Moir t/a IMAGE4x4 on Google Review, these were also removed and since he was at the butt of all those negative reviews, it seems entirely logical that he had the removed by legal threat also. The problem with him having removed all the negative and verifiable reviews, is that it paved the way for more and more follow on victims.
  • attempting to force me to sign a gag order before he would release my vehicle after I sent it back within the warranty period, I refused although I believe he had successfully tried this trick before,
  • While refusing to let me resume possession of my vehicle at the end of the warranty period, and me knowing for a fact that he had not addressed the serious problems which prompted me to return it initially, he tried to force me to sign the previously mentioned gag order while at the same time instructing my legal team that I owed stg13,000 in storage charges which needed to be paid or vehicle could not be collected. I never bent over on this item either while strong-arming the collection of my vehicle.
  • knowingly provided unroadworthy and extremely dangerous vehicles to so many of us; I am directly aware of several victims problems (including mine) :
    • where nuts were not tightened or not in existence in multiple parts of the vehicles, this included wheel nuts.
    • where chassis were rotten,
    • where engines, clutches and gear boxes failed very shortly after collection,
    • where bodywork was not prepared before painting, where painted over rust,
    • where suspension coils were fitted incorrectly, where wrong coils were even cut to fit in;
    • And many many other problems which should not have been problems.....I could easily list another 20 categories here.
    • Very luckily, nobody died as a result of his actions and had there been, it would surely have been qualified along the scale of murder or manslaughter when combined with his t acts of negligence, disregard for the duty of care on top of the contracts commitments which he breached with fervour.
  • by not even providing some of us with vehicles at all; I am directly aware of at least one confirmed victim who never even received his vehicle and in fact it was never located in the IMAGE4x4 stock/inventory at the time of Pauls self declared bankruptcy
  • by obtaining some very questionable MOT passes, I can confirm that he switched parts on my vehicle after it passed the MOT and before I collected it,
  • by purchasing a vast amount of tools in the runup to declaring himself bust and then removing them from the asset list of IMAGE4x4,
  • by removing all the Land Rover Defender parts and part vehicles from the asset list of IMAGE4x4 in the run up to declaring himself bankrupt,
  • by selling items from the asset list of IMAGE4x4 via the likes of eBay during his period of bankruptcy, he sold vehicles and vehicle parts for cash on eBay by using the accounts of a couple of people close to him, possibly those related to his new girlfriend of 2021/2022 (post divorce where he sold the family residence) and her kids.
Thus far he has yet to face justice, but justice will come !!!

And in an attempt to stop anymore innocent folks falling victim to this con man, this is the face that should be avoided.

I'm afraid to say that some of the companies he started never traded. Most were closed as a result of his inability to file returns showing the firms as dormant. That aside, he is a conman. His knowledge of things mechanical is superficial. He did sell cars. He did steal tools. A guy with a window tinting biz did hide a car. The receiver was informed. How do I know all this?
I was a client of his at first. He did help me out, was most friendly and very very helpful. He would make a point of showing me the injector harness issue and stuff like that. They did a respray on my car but later I found issues such as the replacement rear door was a cheap two part and he made off with my one piece door etc.
My car also had a stolen gearbox on it and although he changed a clutch for me I could not say for sure he fitted the stolen gearbox.
When chatting with him one day, he said he was swamped with work and just could not turn teh cars around fast enough.

I offered to help project manage them.
I last about three months before walking out.
By the way, it just cost me near £1000 to get the rear door replaced with a one piece again.

I saw photos of the car sold to an irish guy living in Switzerland. The car was ready to put back together.
He allegedly told the receiver that the car was so rotten he scrapped it.

Everytihng was going so well at first, we were getting all the cars moved on in a production line then he started making excuses.
Money was coming in but he then would not buy the parts. He would buy a £600 Snap on hoover FFS but would not get the bits to finish the cars.

The Official Recevier did NOT do it's job. Questions need to be asked.
Oh, he once told me he had £250k worth of Defenders! Never mind the rooms full of seats, tyres, gearboxes, door, axles etc.
Of and several massive chest of snap on tools. AND there was CCTV of him having vehilces smuggled out past Smith and Nephew the day before the receiver came.
Let him make legal threats about that lot! All wind and P155
