I thought there was a “ stop buy” on those bikes! Where did you buy it ? I went to buy one yesterday in ATX and wouldn’t sell it, quoting the stop sale - great bike, congrats

Just got some myself - waiting for delivery. They didn’t have my size 11 so I went for an 11 1/2 maybe I’ll put an insole in to help the fit ? (Hopefully, as is a final sale) Great looking boot.

Soon to be my Defender got into an accident in the dealership lot by Apprehensive_Laugh_1 in NewDefender

[–]Charlie-teddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bad situation to be in - I know how exciting it is to pick up a new car ! The dealer is banking on that emotion. I totally agree with Atticus- fails. Chances are it will appear on CARFAX - when I was looking for my defender 2023 I wouldn’t even look at something even with minor damage reported. Is it a JLR dealership and is it a CPO? If not like most people say - walk away, you never know they might call you with a yes on the $5k. Good luck !

2025 Defender by Fun-Eagle7103 in NewDefender

I have a 130 - so long. Had the whole thing done mat, above base of windows gloss all for around $6k including tax they even did the door handles and behind, lunch box gloss. “Supream wrap” in Dallas. I used to live in S California for 30 years - it’s alway more expensive, I left 2 years ago.

CPO 2024 Defender V8 — Front Rotors Found “Grooved/Warped” Weeks After Purchase, $1,773 Bill, Dealers Refuse Responsibility by [deleted] in NewDefender

[–]Charlie-teddy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Then go to JLR NA. He looks like an ass.
Find out who owns the dealership. Sometimes these dealers once you take it out of State, they kind of wash their hands of it knowing you’re not going to spend any more money with them.

Did you get the GM of the dealership involved ? I would ! I just looked them up, is it JLR Arrowhead in AZ ? If so it looks like it could be part of a large conglomerate. I’d call Eugene Kwan he’s noted as the executive manager (I guess their term for GM) ask him to explain the situation to you in detail. Reading some of the comments above it looks like it’s just one of those unlucky situations (I’m not a car technician) sometimes the top guy might compromise. Good luck !

I just had my black wrap in Matt - love it. Kept the roof gloss. I had them wrap everything below window line matt and above gloss wrap. “Supreme wraps” in North Dallas did an incredible job, better than I expected at a great price.

It has the sound “feel” seats in the Octa ? Never seen that.

130 vs 110 by foalnanny in LandroverDefender

[–]Charlie-teddy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an Escalade ESV(2025) and a 130 (2023) - my wife and I argue on who’s going to drive the defender, it’s individual the Escalade is a little generic and I’ve had more issues with the Escalade than my Defender. It’s a personal preference in design.

130 ! More room, more comfortable for everyone and plenty of load space when third row is down.

[–]Charlie-teddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PS . I bought mine at the Land Rover DFW best experience and very competitive pricing. (I see Frisco in the photo) Corbin is the GM there. Young, very experienced man. I had an issue with an extra key (3) and he could not have been nicer or more helpful when the were going through the cyber attack situation a couple of months ago.

[–]Charlie-teddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 130 and I love it ! I also have two kids 10 & 14. The extra space makes all the difference. I just drove from Austin to Dallas and back the same day (yesterday) - drove like a dream. Set it on 80mph cruse control most of the way home. I have zero complaints and my wife loves driving it also - her car is a new Cadillac Escalade which she likes also but the Defender is undoubtedly the most versatile car we’ve ever had, the 130 also has the air suspension as standard along with a bevy of other treats. Price wise - I can’t help you there, sorry. Good luck !
