It's an old-school dealer and I mean that in a (very) positive way. Obviously it's 'main dealer prices', but the whole experience of dealing with Evans is very good. Nice staff, good work, car retu... See more

Disatisfied customer
Booked in for a service and mot ar Evans Halshaw Gateshead, the service was to provide your car being picked up and returned to your home, as I would not have taken out the service plan and gone somewhere nearer but this service sold the plan to me.I was told that the driver had been made redundant the year before, though was not advised that the service would no longer be available.Anyway booked it in for 1pm and had to wait around for it to be done, which took 4 hours of waiting, even though people came and went after their cars had been serviced, we were still sitting.My husband is 77 and I'm in my 70's plus a diabetic and had to sit for 4 hours, macdonalds was over the road so had to spend nearly £16 for something to eat.I think it was disgraceful to have us there for 4 hours.When it was finally ready all cars are supposed to be washed and valeted as part of the service, ours had not been touched.Also oil is supposed to be changed at 3 yrs old or 24000 miles, we were not asked about this and only found out when reading advisories.So this is still to be done.
They are all singing and dancing when selling you a car, but service wise they are a disgrace, I feel this poor attempt of servicing was because we got our own finance much cheaper than their interest, did not buy any of the extra add ons and only purchased the service plan because of the picking up and return of car to your home, which did not happen.The 4 tyres are nearing renewal yet we only had the car 10 months and only drive 3000 miles in a year??
I would not reccommend this place for anything they are a disgrace to the motor trade imo.

Feeling Unwelcome After Purchasing in South
I also want to highlight how unwelcome I have felt during my visits. It is very clear that because I purchased my van from another Evans Halshaw branch, I am not treated with the same level of respect or priority as other customers. Instead of feeling supported, I feel pushed aside, ignored, and made to feel like my concerns are not important. This is extremely disappointing, especially from a dealership with a big name in the market. As a paying customer with an active extended warranty, I expect the same level of service and professionalism as anyone else — not to be treated differently simply because I bought my vehicle elsewhere.

Evans Halshaw, aftercare is none existing
I totally Concur with Stacie on 02/06/2026 , I’ve got a car on PCP off Vauxhall , it’s almost 1 year old now, twice in the last 11 months I’ve had to call the AA for recovery back to Evans Halshaw .
Last month my fly off wheel on my clutch collapsed, this month it’s the gears , on both occasions I asked if they had any aftercare ie another car , I was told quite bluntly on both occasions that we have 7 cars(So they say ) and they’re all out .
I’ve had to take days off work for the inconvenience of it all , I’m also having to hire a car for my work , all whilst Evans Halshaw in Gateshead couldn’t give a monkeys.
I strongly recommend that anyone who has a disagreement with Evans Halshaw take their complaints to Vauxhall it’s self , they are only open Monday to Friday but definitely the point of contact, Evans Halshaw just sell the product, Vauxhall actually care about their product and complaints . More to follow once I’ve spoken to Vauxhall on Monday .
