They have done a moonlight flit because Silverlink Specialist Cars are a bunch of shysters.

I would personally advise anyone who was considering buying a car from Silverlink Specialst Cars of Bedlington to stay well clear!. My partner called the owner to enquire about a Range Rover that he had seen on the site for me. He was discussing that we would like to trade in my merc and how much he would want for it. He also asked how much we could get the finance for (we stay 130 miles away, so it would be a waste to travel that far to be told the finance was to dear). My partner asked if he needed to speak to me in regards to giving my personal details over the phone and the response was no. The owner put the finance through and it seemed affordable, my partner agreed we would drive down and have a look at the car and the owner can look at mines. To which the owner asked for a 200.00 deposit. Unfortunately, I had seen a better car with less mileage and phoned and apologised we wouldn’t be down. To which the owner was very rude, told me I wasted his time, he had valeted the car and we were not getting the 200.00 deposit money back. When I told him that it doesn’t state in his policy that the deposit was non refundable, we hadn’t even looked at each other’s cars to decide if we wanted them yet, and he shouldn’t be running my details through the system without me giving my consent over the phone to him- he told me to go away and hung up on me. We have had to take this matter to trade and standards, and seek advice from citizens advice to try and resolve this matter. Once again- stay well clear from this dealer. I would be rating them 0 stars if I could.

Friendly and amenable dealership that are not pushy. It was a pleasure to view and then buy the car from these guys. Definitely recommend Silverlink Specialist Cars.
