WARNING!
Please be aware that there is a company in the UK called Driven Management Limited (trading as The TT Centre based in Grayshott, Surrey, www.ttcentre.com) who you should avoid at all costs.
This company say they are "Specialist suppliers of new and nearly new Left Hand Drive vehicles" and their slogan is "If only everything in life is this easy".
Well let me tell you, everything in life IS that easy compared with dealing with the TT Centre!
I approached them and asked them to procure a left hand drive car for me. They said that they would purchase the car on my behalf from a Garage in Europe and that I could collect the car in 2-3 weeks.
They asked for 10% of the value of the car to be paid immediately via debit card. A few weeks later they asked me to send the balance. I wasn’t happy transferring the full balance so I agreed to send half the balance as per there T&C’s and would pay the final balance on collection.
Naturally, I had been in contact with the garage in Luxemburg to make sure The TT Centre had actually forwarded the deposit initially to secure the car.
This is when the problems started to occur. The TT Centre took over a month to send 1000 Euros to secure the car. Finally this amount was received by the dealer, however, the balance was never received by the dealer and they subsequently sold the vehicle to someone else despite my warnings to The TT Centre, over a 2 month period, that they were going to do this. I was just fed lies throughout the whole period.
I have been trying to get my £20000 back for the last 3 months but to date I have not received a penny.
I regret putting my trust in a company such as this and can only warn others not to make the same mistake.

Bodster,

We can order a LHD for you to UK spec for £400 more than RHD. If you still need assistance then email me the spec of what you are after and the price at which it was offered and I'll do my level best.

It would need to be an 09my car (as it would be factory ordered) and my guess would be late Oct delivery.

Hi James,

Thanks for the information. If i ever get my £20K back then I will get in touch.

Cheers

My car is a UK spec LHD with extras to comply with Belgian regulations, ordered through MacCrae & Dick in Inverness, cost an extra £300 on top of the UK price but still much cheaper than getting one here in Belgium. LR have department devoted to "export vehicles" (and odball specs) and through your local dealer will make it painless for you. It took 12 weeks from placing the order to picking up the car. From all the feed back I've heard and read about James and CHPR they will keep you right.  Sons of dogs come hither and get flesh

James,

If we decide to relocate to Vietnam in the next 12 months would Charles Hurst be able to order a FFRR or RRS to ship LHD to Saigon? Do we have to pay any VAT on an export car.

Unfortunately Export Sales is handled by Stratstone Mayfair, however we can supply a LHD on UK terms.

Adrian - be very careful about importing cars into the "emerging" Far East countries and check out the levels of duty that you get hit with when it arrives in Vietnam. I'm not joking here but many countries out there have car and truck building facilities and just HATE imported cars with a vengence (ask Bobby what Malaysia is like and also Thailand has extortionate duty levied on imported vehicles) often hitting you with more than 100% of the car's value (in the country of purchase) in import duty or you ahve to have a "certificate of entitlement" like in singapore before you are even allowed to buy a car. Shipping a car from the UK to Vietnam isn't difficult - the company I work for has connecting containership services from UK to Singapore then on to Vietnam 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced

Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Bodster2, Mrs S works no more than 100yds from the very place you're talking about (we used to live in the next village along from Grayshott) - shall I send her in on a mission? I suggest you might find 20k winging it's way to you very quickly indeed

Sounds very similar to the LHD Car company and the Loach (?) Brothers ?

looking at their website.....isnt 40K well over priced for an 06 TDV6 RRS with 20000km on clock?

Not to people in Grayshott. This is where that silly bint with the GTC scrapes her alloys up against the pavement when parking
