Hi all, thought what happened today was laughable so thought id post it on here....
Evans Halshaw took over our 3 Vauxhall Dealerships a few months ago and trying to get parts of them is an absolute bl**dy nightmare they never have anything in, and when they order it in it takes weeks.
So i phoned up today to order some O rings for my plenum only to be told by the receptionist " Sorry they're closed this afternoon for stock taking"
.................Probably take them all of 1 minute...........

They have taken over my local Vx also, your right, no stock, and i thing the stores man and the service manager are called DUMB & DUMBER
>:( >:( >:( ;D ;D

Yeah i think the only qualification you need to get a job in their parts department is to have the IQ of a flip flop......... ;D ;D

;D ;D ;D

I do my TC shopping at Vx at Unedrwoods of Sudbury, Suffolk, and the service s top notch. The parts staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and part are available either form stock or within 2 days. Briliant! :y
Sadly, I can't say the same about their actual car servicing... :-X

'I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it', runs a close third. :y

But id never ever take my Omega there for work to be done again........the service dept is a lying bunch of ............and thats both dealers >:(

My local parts department are terrific, for the most part. When I were a young'un in a Corsa (sssh) I ordered about a hundred quid's worth of service kit, the bloke put it through as trade without being asked. :y Only had to get a HBV for my car so far, after a bit of chew where they couldn't find it on the computer, went down to get it, and they couldn't have been better.
The sales department, however, complete tossers. Went in before I got my car, thought I'd chance a look and see if they had any decent Omegas on their system. Got treated like I was an inconvenience, so I walked out...
