I am reaching out to you to express my concern and disappointment regarding my vehicle, VW buzz: NJ74 GPZ. it was delivered to me with visible damage/imperfections on 28/10/2024. I had the delivery driver document this at the time. I immediately e-mailed NHS fleet with pictures and details of the damage/imperfections.Despite numerous communications and assurances that the issue would be resolved, it has now been over a full year, and the vehicle remains unrepaired. Although I have finally been able to book in the repairs with revive (booked 17/11/2025). Revive have informed me they cannot repair all the damages and I am not receiving any response from lookers. I feel this extended delay is unacceptable and has caused significant inconvenience and distress.To highlight the extent of the delay, I’ve included a timeline below:Clare Hall from lookers communicated with me from early November (3/11/2024) regarding my vehicle NJ74 GPZ that was delivered (28/10/2024) with damage/imperfections that was raised to fleet.Clare and I exchanged e-mails and phone calls (number provided for communication +44 191 298 1628) then all correspondence stopped.I tried e-mailing Clare on:04/12/202410/01/202513/01/2025I had no response.

Great member of staff (Peter), knowledgeable, and helpful, great communication

Hi good afternoon.I have just been on the phone to a member of staff at the VW Lookers Van Centre in Newcastle.I explained that I am away on holiday and that on the way down a knocking sound became apparent when moving away or slowing down.Looking at my manufacturers warranty, this finishes tomorrow on the 30th Oct. Despite being away down in London, Lookers Newcastle still did not have any availability for a diagnostic till next week.The member of staff was not very helpful and I mentioned that I did not like her tone. I was basically told that my warranty would expire and that I could always book in elsewhere. This is not helpful considering I am away on holiday.I feel that I have made VW aware of a fault prior to the warranty running out and I am looking for a solution to this.I have always had good relations with this store, however today I was left feeling unheard and I would have to strongly consider taking my business elsewhere moving forward.RegardsAndrew Dockerty

Helpful and friendly staff, nothing was any trouble.

Staff rang me back the following day after I rang, however they were unable to help as I wish to view a VW transporter on the Motability scheme.I was advised that due to Motability not advising this would be on the scheme, they would not have one to view for possibly 2-3 months.

Good

Although I didn’t find what I was searching for the service I received was polite helpful and knowledgeable .

Peter RoweWhilst I didn’t purchase at this moment in time, I will definitely come to you for a deal when I am able to sell my existing vehicle .Peter was super professional and excellent in all his dealings with me.

Luke was fantastic and came across as polite and courteous. He kept in touch and tried very hard to find me a car.

Lewis was excellent and a great help considering we were in Scotland and he was helping us sort everything for a Newcastle van. He was brilliant when we were down for a test drive, and has gone above and beyond with regards to the reservation process.
