The other one of these I’ve seen around Alderley is a white left hooker so won’t get you confused ;-)

Unlikely to be the first, or the last to say something along those lines.

Someone from here had a bad experience with an FF and that Swadlincote dealer.

Just as long as you weren't promised a complete point check etc that never materialised... Guess we all have a cross to bear biggrin

That was Snr rather than Jnr? No idea how close the two companies are (physically same site) in terms of working practices and reputation.

TH & THJ are seperate businesses though, I thought it was just TH with the bad rep?
I'm local so find it amusing watching THJ's Youtube videos where he desperately tries to speak 'proper' and mask his Swad accent but fails. Eg this Ferrari has covered only 4000 miles from noooo. hehe

Blankety-blank: "Like ________, like _________," perhaps. Or something about apples and dispersion radii.

They're not on the same premises. THJ's cars are actually in Ashby.

Pete, did you fancy any of the Vettel cars from THJ?

At least he photographs his cars next to the lake, rather than in the lake...

Odd that you mention a sour taste from thj, from Instagram it looked like he was working to setup a good relationship with you

So I’ve just had a call from THJ and we’ve ironed things out. I’m happy to move on and not hold too many grudges, so it’s all good.
It’s a different process to buying from DK Engineering but then again I’ve dealt with DK for a few years now whereas this was the first deal with THJ so there’s no platform for us to work from.
Anyway it’s all good now.

Let the cars speak for themselves.

Here’s the two newest purchases.

The 275 from THJ to match my Lusso



And here’s the GT3RS 4.0 from DK



And here it is with a coke can on its great big food tray wing

Lovely, as you’re well aware life can too short to hold grudges!

Love the table shot, needs a dirty bacon butty or a burger at a track day

I don't follow this thread with any regularity but I just have to ask.
All these cars, beautiful cars.. but what do you jump in for the tip run. Park in Tesco. Muddy walks etc etc. Going to guess there's like a mk4 golf estate or a mitsubishi L200 with a spilt tin of paint in the bed?
Come on... Show us the dirty stuff.. smokinlaughlaughlaugh

Did THJ read this thread then to see there was an issue?
