Dear Jawad,Re: LN75 CJUWhile I am still awaiting DVLA to correct the V5C, I would like to recap the situation clearly.Prior to purchasing the vehicle, I specifically asked and made it a condition of purchase that the V5C be registered in my personal name for parking permit purposes. You confirmed that this would not be an issue. However, despite this assurance, the V5C was issued in the company name and to date, this has still not been rectified.In addition, I have now received the email below from your organisation (the contents of which are self-explanatory). This error has proven to be a complete deal breaker.Earlier today, I contacted my insurer to amend what I believed to be a minor typo error (“SE” to “Edition”). I was shocked to be informed that this change would result in an increase in my insurance premium of about £5,000, in addition to the original premium that I have already paid. I purchased the vehicle solely on the basis of the insurance quote provided by Admiral. Had I been aware that the premium would increase to such an extent, I would not have proceeded with the purchase.This represents yet another error on the part of your company, for which I am not responsible and should not be expected to absorb the financial consequences.I have asked the insurer to provide written confirmation that the premium increase is directly attributable to this amendment. I am advised this will be issued within 24 hours, after which you may wish to escalate the matter to your management team.In light of the above, I have no option but to return the vehicle and seek full reimbursement of:The deposit paid,All monthly payments made since December (two payments to date),The costs of the Ghost immobiliser and dash cam.That said, I will be obtaining alternative insurance quotes tomorrow (Wednesday). Should I be able to secure a comparable policy at a similar premium to my original Admiral quote, I may reconsider not returning the vehicle provided your error and the V5C registration are fully and promptly corrected.However, given the seriousness of the errors made by your firm / JLR, if I am unable to obtain insurance at a similar premium, I will proceed with returning the vehicle.Kind RegardsSam GitiforozEdward James Estates LimitedNiddry LodgeDear Jawad,Further to my email below, I have tried to obtain alternative insurance quotes and noted that comparison sites continue to recognise the vehicle as the “SE” rather than “Edition” when the registration number is entered. This clearly demonstrates that the changes have not been reflected by the DVLA and or insurers.Unfortunately, I therefore have no option but to return the vehicle. This constitutes a clear case of mis-selling.Please advise on the next steps.RegardsSamDear Garfield,I understand that you are the manager at Lookers.Please see the emails below that I sent to Jawad yesterday and today, you may wish to read from the bottom.This matter is quite urgent, as it relates to insurance. Please also find attached confirmation from the insurer for your reference.Please advise urgently.Kind RegardsSam GitiforozDear Mr GitiforozThank you for your email the contents of which we note.We formally acknowledge receipt of your complaint and will review said matter and will revert with an update as soon as possible.If in meantime you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.Kind regards,Garfield Ramsay Transaction ManagerLookers Jaguar Land Rover West LondonT: 020 8938 1300E: GarfieldRamsay@lookers.co.ukjaguar.co.uk | lookers.co.uk/jaguarlandrover.co.uk | lookers.co.uk/land-roverDear Mr. Ramsay,This matter is extremely urgent and needs to be addressed immediately.In summary, the vehicle was originally described as SE and has now been changed to EDITION.Having reviewed the documentation, the inconsistencies are clear:The purchase contract refers to both SE and EditionThe Service Plan contract refers to the vehicle as SE onlyThe V5C issued by the DVLA in December 2025 also lists the vehicle as SEJLR has confirmed by email that an error was madeInsurance comparison websites still identify the vehicle as SE when the registration is entered.The misdescription has resulted in a substantial and material financial loss, namely an increase in annual insurance premiums from approximately £1,800 to £6,800To date, I have paid the following:£22,000 deposit, £2,019.12 on 4th December 2025, £2,019.12 on 4th January 2026, Ghost immobiliser: £499, Dash cam: £336. This totals £26,873.24 (see attached invoices for the last 2).In addition, I paid approximately £1,800 for the insurance, which I expect will be reimbursed on a pro-rata basis once the policy is cancelled.The vehicle must be returned, and I expect the contract to be voided in full, with complete reimbursement of all amounts paid.I must also add that your organisation has caused me a significant amount of inconvenience, distress, and anxiety as a result!Please confirm when the vehicle will be collected and outline the next steps without delay.Kind RegardsSam GitiforozEdward James Estates LimitedNiddry Lodge51 Holland StreetKensingtonLondonW8 7JBT: +44 (0) 20 3509 2921M: +44 (0) 77 8210 3998www.edwardjamesestates.co.ukCompany Reg: 10439814.

When can I expect to hear from you?As stated previously, this matter is urgent and requires your immediate attention, with no further delay.RegardsSamHi SamI will call you at 12pm today to discuss your issues.Best RegardsDamanI’ve also just checked two more random companies online and I can find the edition model listed.Best Regards,DamanGarfield Ramsay Transaction ManagerDear All,This is my 5th email since 6th January, and I have yet to receive a response. When can I expect to hear from you?As stated previously, this matter is urgent and requires your immediate attention, with no further delay.RegardsSamDear Daman,Please see the 3 attached examples.Once the registration number is entered, the database recognises the vehicle as an SE. The term “Edition” may be added later by opting for a “different car”; however, this results in a significantly higher premium.The vehicle I purchased was sold as an SE (please see the attached V5C, which makes no reference to “Edition”). This was later confirmed by a letter from JLR acknowledging the error (see attached). As a direct result, my insurance premium increased by approximately £5,000 (see attached letter from Admiral).As mentioned in my previous emails, the contract and service plan inconsistently refer to the vehicle as both SE and Edition, while DVLA records and insurance providers recognise the registration number as SE only.This is a clear case of misrepresentation, and JLR needs to take responsibility for this error. Had I been aware that the insurance would be significantly higher, I would not have purchased the vehicle.I hope we can resolve this matter amicably. Please advise on the next steps.Kind RegardsSam GitiforozDear SamAttached is the original factory sheet which states that your vehicle is an SE model as all edition models are based on this model. What identifies it as an ‘edition model’ is where it states on the options part ‘unique plant process’, this informs us internally that it is an ‘edition’ model.I have also attached a copy of your original signed sales order form and a copy of your finance agreement, which states that the car you purchased has always been listed as an ‘edition model’ These documents were created and signed before the vehicle was taxed and registered incorrectly as just a SE Model.Your insurance quote should of always been set up as an Edition model and not just listed as an SE.We are fully aware and accept the fact that your vehicle was incorrectly registered with the DVLA as when registering your vehicle during our cyber-attack, we had to manually register these vehicles and were only presented with what Land Rover allowed us to register from. There is no issue to get this rectified for you.There does not seem to be any mis representation during the sale of this vehicle as far as I can see. Getting it insured before the vehicle was taxed and registered, is simply down to our customer to arrange.We therefore do not see any grounds to reject your vehicle based on misrepresentation of selling.If you are not happy with my response, then I can at your request, forward all correspondence to our vehicle complaints department, where we would start a full formal investigation and your case will be looked at by the lookers complaints department.Please let me know your thoughts on the matter.Best Regards,DamanDaman Wadhwa New Car Sales ManagerDear Daman,I submitted a formal complaint to your company on 6th January 2026, clearly titled “Formal Complaint.” Your email below appears to ask whether you should forward my complaint to the Vehicle Complaints Department?Please clarify and advise whether your email below could be treated as a deadlock letter?RegardsSamDear Complaints team,Please see our clients email below, they have already made a formal complaint on the matter below, Please could you come back to us at your earliest convenience with a response and see if we can work out some sort of solution for Mr Gitiforoz?Best RegardsDamanFrom: SamSent: 14 January 2026 16:55To: 'Daman Wadhwa'Cc: Garfield Ramsay; Jawad AmilySubject: RE: Formal Complaint and Intention to Return VehicleDear Daman,On another note,I have received a letter from DVLA suggesting the car has not been taxed?!I clearly recall Jawad said the car is taxed for me.Please see attached and clarify urgently.RegardsSamFrom: SamSent: 16 January 2026 11:27To: Daman WadhwaCc: Garfield Ramsay; Jawad AmilySubject: RE: Formal Complaint and Intention to Return VehicleExternal Sender: Confirm legitimacy before acting.Dear Daman,Almost every week there is a new issue. You have let me down significantly, and this matter now requires you to take responsibility. I have a litigation solicitor on standby and am prepared to escalate this to your regulatory body, as well as share my ordeal on social media and X.At the point of purchase, I clearly informed Jawad that having the V5C registered in my personal name was a condition of the sale, as I require this in order to apply for a parking permit. He confirmed that this would not be a problem. However, 3 weeks after collecting the vehicle, I received the V5C registered under the company name, which is the complete opposite of what was agreed. Since then, I have spent a considerable amount of time corresponding with the DVLA to rectify an error that was not of my making.The DVLA advised that I submit a letter confirming a mistake had been made and that a similar letter would be required from the dealership. I spoke with Jawad in early December, and he confirmed that such a letter had been sent by you. Despite this, 6 weeks have now passed, I am still unable to obtain a parking permit, and yesterday I received the attached DVLA letter, which contradicts the guidance provided to me earlier in December. I contacted the DVLA again today and was told that on 18th Dec, they wrote to you requesting supporting documentation, including the RAV and Keeper Input Form. It appears that this request has been ignored.If I am to make an assumption, this may be because the finance agreement is under the company name and you are therefore unable to provide the requested documents. Please confirm urgently if this assumption is incorrect and whether you are able to supply the DVLA with the documentation required to amend the V5C into my personal name and address my objective that was shared & agreed with you prior to purchase.It now appears that either, Jawad knowingly misrepresented the position in order to secure the sale or he was unaware that a V5C can’t be registered in my personal name where finance is linked to the purchasing company and failed to tell me that! As a direct result of this serious error, I may be forced to accept registration as a 2nd keeper in order to apply for parking, a position I explicitly sought to avoid. This is further complicated by the fact that the vehicle insurance is registered in my personal name, as confirmed to you previously by phone.This situation is entirely unsatisfactory. Either this issue is resolved promptly by your dealership, or I expect to be adequately compensated. If you do not wish to take ownership of this latest failure, then this matter must be formally added to my existing complaint to JLR, or a new complaint logged immediately.Please advise urgently how you intend to proceed so that I can determine how to respond to the DVLA’s correspondence.RegardsSam GitiforozDear Sam,As stated in my previous email, I do not see any reason for us to accept your rejection of being mis sold. I have stated my reasons on why I have come to this conclusion.I have escalated your issues to the vehicles complaints team, They will investigate the matter fully with our legal team and we will come back to you in due course.I have copied them in to this email too for their reference.I do suggest in the meantime that you work with the DVLA as they have contacted you in order to have vehicle correctly registered.Best RegardsDaman New Car Sales ManagerDear Daman,The original complaint relates to an error made by JLR, which you have submitted to your complaints department.The 2nd complaint relates to your own dealership, specifically concerning a commitment made by Jawad that has not been upheld. As it appears that no ownership is being taken of this most recent issue, this matter will need to be referred to your complaints department and logged as a new and 2nd complaint.Please confirm once this has been done.RegardsSamDear SamI have acknowledged your points below and I have informed the complaints team. As Mentioned, ownership is taking seriously, which is why we have this department to help resolve our customer complaints in a compliant manner.Jawad is off on annual leave until the 26th of January. He’s been off for 3 weeks. Once he is back in, I will have a discussion with him about taxing of the vehicle. I need to hear his side of the issue. I will come back to you then with an update on what was discussed.Best RegardsDamanDaman Wadhwa New Car Sales ManagerLookers Jaguar Land Rover West LondonT: 020 8938 1300E: DamanWadhwa@lookers.co.ukjaguar.co.uk | lookers.co.uk/jaguarlandrover.co.uk | lookers.co.uk/land-roverHi Jawad,Noted. See attached my driving licence / passport.I need an invoice please before I can pay & sign.Also please copy & paste my company name, address into the invoice.The V5c needs to be under my personal name for the insurance. Please confirm.Dear Daman,See belowNo need to wait for him to re confirm!Please adviseSamDear Elisabeth,I would like to make a positive correction in relation to my email sent yesterday regarding the vehicle. A technician came earlier today and advised that the EV function becoming temporarily unavailable is normal. He provided an explanation, which I am prepared to rely upon. The SOS system needed resetting and I am told that it is now functioning correctly. Accordingly, please ask your Branch Manager to disregard the part of my previous email relating to the EV issue.However, the 2 previously raised matters remain outstanding, and I need meaningful and practical solutions if I am to continue with the vehicle. I would also like to formally raise a further complaint regarding Daman’s handling of this matter since early Jan. Not only did he fail to take ownership of the issues caused by JLR and your own team, but he also led me to believe he was “investigating” the situation, after which he ceased communication entirely. I subsequently understand that he has left your company, yet I received no notification, no handover communication, and no introduction to his successor. This level of service and lack of care is extremely disappointing and unprecedented.RegardsSam

Dear Sir / MadamLooking for some support following some very troubling issues with our Discovery Sport vehicle purchased brand new from Lookers West London in 2024. This is our third Discovery and we have been loyal to the brand and to Lookers in that time. Unfortunately 3 weeks ago, the vehicle cut out when I was driving in it alone. It was very scary. It was then taken to Landrover North Westfor repair for some reason, rather than West. I went to west to pick up a hire vehicle assuming it had gone there and then had to travel across to North West. It was really frustrating in an already difficult situation. Today I went to pick up the vehicle. I got as far as the end of the slip road and was turning out into the main road when the car died again. All electrics failed and the steering wheel locked. If it had happened 2 minutes later I would have been in the middle of a busy roundabout.I simply don’t understand how a premium brand like Jaguar Landrover can allow vehicles to be on the road like this with known faults. I’m assuming I am not the only person this has happened to? I have three young kids and I would simply not be happy to drive them in that car given what has happened. I have lost all confidence. This is our only family vehicle which we rely on for school runs etc.The hire car I have has been good and I was really supported today by the team at North West (Laura Bacon and Yasmin Hasson). They were both excellent in a difficult situation.I’m writing now to escalate this matter because I no longer feel safe in my vehicle. It’s only by luck that no one was hurt on these two occasions.Laura.bacon@group1auto.co.uk has all the detail of the repairs and what happened today.Given what has happened, I will be looking for a replacement vehicle at no additional cost.Please can somebody reach out to discuss next steps.Kind regardsCharlotte Bunn

Dear Jaguar Land Rover Customer Relations Team,I am writing to formally complain about the ongoing handling of my brand-new Range Rover, purchased directly from an authorised Land Rover dealership and covered by full manufacturer warranty.My vehicle has now been with your authorised dealer for over one month due to a battery-related fault. After repeated delays and changing explanations, I have now been informed that a fault has been identified with the BDCD, which is currently on back order and will take a further two weeks to arrive. This extends an already unreasonable period without my vehicle.Throughout this entire time, the level of service I have received has been extremely disappointing and far below what is expected from a premium brand:• I have not been offered a courtesy vehicle at any stage• I have received poor communication, with calls not returned and inconsistent explanations• I have incurred thousands of pounds in taxi and Uber costs to manage daily life• I continue to pay insurance, vehicle tax, and other ongoing ownership costs for a car I cannot use• Despite servicing exclusively with Land Rover and investing heavily in this vehicle, I have been treated dismissively and without urgencyUnder the Consumer Rights Act 2015, repairs must be carried out within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to the customer. Being without a brand-new vehicle for over a month — with no courtesy car and mounting personal expense — clearly constitutes significant inconvenience.At this point, I am requesting Jaguar Land Rover UK to urgently intervene and provide the following:1. Immediate provision of a suitable courtesy vehicle until my car is fully repaired2. Reimbursement or compensation for reasonable transport costs incurred during this prolonged repair period3. A clear, written timeline for the completion of repairs4. Assurance that this matter is being escalated and managed at an appropriate levelI purchased a new Range Rover specifically for reliability, peace of mind, and premium service. My experience so far has been the opposite, and I am extremely disappointed that such a situation has been allowed to continue unresolved.I would appreciate a prompt response within 5 working days, outlining how Jaguar Land Rover UK intends to resolve this matter fairly and in line with my consumer rights.I hope this can be resolved amicably and swiftly. However, if the situation continues without meaningful resolution, I will have no option but to consider further escalation.Yours faithfully,Mohammed Ali

With reference to vehicle purchased from your company registration number H1NCO (formally SW72OGA).I am writing to you regarding an issue I have with the vehicle I purchased from your west London branch in July 2025.After 6 months of ownership the paint on the front bumper and offside front wing is bubbling and peeling which is not what I expected from a supposed premium vehicle. I have had it inspected by my local Land Rover dealership who have stated that there has been a substandard repair made to the car. I was not informed at the time of purchase that the vehicle had suffered accident damage and at that stage the repair was not visible to the eye of an 'amateur'.I have tried to contact your dealership over the last few days but have had no response.Could you please contact me with some options as to how this matter can be rectified amicably.

I submitted a formal written complaint on 16 January 2026 regarding misdescription at point of sale (deployable side steps listed on showroom display but not supplied) and an incorrect add-on charge.I received acknowledgement with Ticket 85379254 stating I would be contacted within 14 days.It is now 11 February 2026 and I have received no substantive response.This form is being submitted as the 14-day timeframe has passed without resolution, and I request escalation to the relevant operational director as per Lookers’ complaints policy.For reference, the deployable side steps were clearly listed on the display next to the vehicle at the time of purchase and were an essential factor in my decision.Please confirm when this matter will be formally reviewed and responded to.

This is further supported by the fact that the dealership contacted the driver directly ahead of the visit to request documentation typically required for a courtesy vehicle, including a DVLA check code and insurance details.However, upon arrival at the dealership, the driver was advised that no courtesy vehicle was available and was told that the dealership had informed Fleet Assist back in December that a vehicle would not be provided. This explanation does not align with either your booking records or the dealership’s pre-appointment communications with the driver.As a result, the driver was required to remain at the dealership for the duration of the work, causing understandable frustration and inconvenience.We are just looking to understand why the site called the driver to get the information needed for a courtesy car only to then tell the driver it was not available.Kind Regards,ScarlettFrom: Jason SlavinSent: 26 January 2026 14:36To: Customer ServicesSubject: RE: OE24BTX - Tusker - Lookers Land Rover West LondonCAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

Hi,I have received my vehicle back from Lookers West London, and I appreciate the team taking the car in.Unfortunately, on Saturday, shortly after its return, the vehicle experienced a serious and dangerous failure. While driving on a fast road, five warning lights suddenly appeared, the steering became extremely stiff, and I lost control of the car. This resulted in the vehicle leaving the road and caused a near-fatal collision.Both my daughter and I were in the car at the time. I have since suffered injuries to my neck and arm due to the steering locking and becoming extremely difficult to control. I had to physically force the steering wheel to manoeuvre the car into the side lane in order to avoid further danger.I am extremely distressed by this incident, particularly given that the vehicle had just been returned to me. The loss of steering control placed our lives at serious risk, and I am deeply concerned about the safety of the vehicle.I require this matter to be treated as urgent. Please confirm:• That the vehicle will be fully inspected as a priority• What checks were carried out prior to the car being returned to me• How this incident will be formally investigatedGiven the seriousness of the situation and the injuries sustained, I would appreciate a prompt response outlining next steps.Kind regards,Nida Ahmad

Despite being given multiple opportunities to repair, the vehicle continues to suffer from dangerous faults. I am therefore exercising my final right to reject the vehicle under Sections 20 and 24 of the Consumer Rights Act 2015.Issues Identified at Test Drive & Collection (Not Rectified)At the time of test drive and prior to collection, I raised multiple defects, which I was assured would be fixed before delivery. Only one issue was resolved. The outstanding issues included:• Dented rear wheel / spare wheel cover• Missing air intake• Additional cosmetic and mechanical issues• Noisy door cardDespite assurances, these issues were not rectified before delivery.Delays & Failure to Deliver as Agreed• The delivery date was delayed• A second collection date was arranged, yet the vehicle was again not delivered on time• When the vehicle was eventually handed over, several agreed repairs were still outstandingAs a business owner, I rely on having a functioning vehicle due to tight schedules and nationwide travel. These delays caused significant disruption.I was informed that outstanding work would be completed once parts arrived and that I would need to return the vehicle at a later date.First Breakdown – Serious Safety IncidentWhile driving to Croydon to drop off staff, the following occurred:• Multiple dashboard warning lights appeared• Shortly after, the vehicle stopped in the middle of the road• The vehicle automatically shifted into neutral• I have photographic evidence of all dashboard warningsI contacted Range Rover breakdown cover. Instead of JLR technicians, AA attended. The AA technician:• Was unable to identify the fault• Contacted JLR technicians for advice• Ran diagnostics and deleted all fault codes• Advised me to take the vehicle to the dealership the next day• Explicitly stated he did not know what the underlying issue wasDealership Repair Attempt – Locketts West LondonThe vehicle was delivered to Locketts West London Range Rover. I:• Explained all faults in detail• Left the vehicle with them• Was provided with a courtesy vehicle for approximately 3½ weeksCollection After 3½ Weeks – Promised Work Not DoneUpon being informed the vehicle was ready for collection, I discovered:• The rear wheel / spare wheel cover was still dented and not replaced, despite being promised at first collection• The air intake had not been fitted, despite being previously confirmed it would be• I was told only at this stage that the air intake “does not fit the vehicle”– after waiting 3½ weeks• The noisy door card I reported was not rectified• I was told nothing was wrong with the vehicle and that it was safe to driveThis was despite the vehicle being held for several weeks specifically to address these issues.Second Breakdown – Severe & Dangerous FailureWithin 24 hours of collecting the vehicle and while travelling to a business meeting:• All warning lights reappeared• I lost power steering• The vehicle again shifted into neutral• The brakes were not functioning correctly• The vehicle suddenly stopped in live traffic• The car would not restart• Dashboard indicated the battery was flatAs a result:• I missed my meeting• I was stranded from approximately 19:30–20:00 until 03:00Breakdown & Recovery FailuresAA attended after approximately 3 hours and could not repair the vehicle. A recovery truck (VBR Recovery) was dispatched.The recovery operative:• Did not have a battery pack• Incorrectly attached the winch to a suspension component• Dragged the vehicle without the wheels rotating• Failed to use the tow hook• Risked serious damage to the gearbox and differentialI had to intervene personally, use my own battery pack, and drive the vehicle onto the recovery truck myself to prevent further damage. I did not leave the scene until approximately 03:00.Previous Vehicle History – Pattern of FailureThis is not my first serious issue with the brand.My previous Range Rover (FH68 HNU, purchased in 2023) experienced:• Extended periods off the road (initially 6 weeks, later 6 months)• Smoke entering the cabin at motorway speeds• Strong fumes causing breathing difficulties for myself and my family• Vehicle repeatedly returned without proper repair• Final refusal to assist once the extended warranty expiredI had to repair the vehicle at my own cost and retain invoices and video evidence.Despite this, I chose to trust the brand again. I now regret that decision.Loss of Confidence & Safety ConcernsGiven:• Multiple unresolved defects• Repeated safety-critical breakdowns• Failure to repair despite extended time at dealership• Inaccurate assurances that the vehicle was “safe to drive”• A clear pattern of failures across two vehiclesI have suffered a total loss of confidence in this vehicle and the brand.This vehicle is dangerous to operate, particularly with my family, and presents an unacceptable risk to myself and other road users.Resolution RequiredI am formally requesting:1. Acceptance of my rejection of the vehicle2. Written confirmation of the next steps3. No further repair attempts4. Resolution without delayIf this matter is not resolved promptly, I will proceed via solicitors without further notice, supported by extensive evidence including:• Photos• Videos• Recovery records• Invoices• CorrespondencePlease provide a written response within 14 daysKind regardsMaurice JosephVehicle Reg - LN73 XKJ
