After buying from them in June 2017 I had to repeatedly return the car to them with problems over the next 4 months. I eventually got an independent inspection carried out and presented them with the findings. They took the car in again and carried out all the work - or so they said - which included new brake discs, pads, shock absorbers, etc. Surprise surprise 10 months later all of these things need replaced and guess what they never had been replaced!! Thanks Whitley Bay Motors for your lies - I now face a £500+ bill

Phoned up about a 1994 Audi coupe was told it was a lovely car as pictures showed , came 6hrs to get car was told it would drive home without a problem , I knew this was an older car ! Stopped for fuel 30 miles up road getting back in car noticed it had a flat tyre checked spare it was perished and flat put air in and went to get it fixed , went to start car to put it on ramp and it would not start no lights on dash after two hours the boys did not know what was wrong , phoned Peter and he didn’t want to know said he couldn’t shed any light on it , Not what I wanted to hear !!!!!! Take your money and stuff you , not even an apology had to stay in a hotel the night it had three illegal tyres all perished also flat battery!!!! And this had not long passed an mot , plus there own pre inspection test !! A totally bad experience I don’t no how garages get away with this nowadays if I had been stopped by the police I would have picked up nine points !

I bought a BMW 3 series from Peter at the vroom site and the service was fantastic. I viewed, put down a deposit and drove away within 2 days! Definitely would recommend Whitley Bay Motors.

Definitely wouldn't recommend Whitley Bay Motors. I bought a Vauxhall of them, its had so so many issues, meaning I've had to take it back loads and its not exactly local, its 60 miles away. Eventually the issues were fixed but if you aren't Strong willed like me I doubt i would of got it all fixed. They wanted me to just come in and go as quick as possible without even letting me test drive. Terrible experience at this place.

"Awful, worst experience ever "

After travelling a long way to pick up the car, and being assured the car was in 'lovely condition' etc etc, I have since had to pay out over £3000 pounds, for an entire new clutch system, new air conditioning condensers, the car needs 4 new tyres, the plugs have been changed, and the brake fluid had to be changed also. This garage are a joke, don't use. Since paying a specialist to look into the history of the car, it doesn't tie up with the fantastic report I was given from Whitley bay motors either, just shameful service to be honest with you.

So after travelling a long distance to collect my car from Whitley Bay Motors, and being told that it was a 'lovely car' and in perfect condition, I am now over £2500 out of pocket on repair bills. The car was sold to me with a completely ruined clutch, had to replace the entire unit, the car was sold to me with rubbish tyres, so there is another huge cost, no air conditioning, had to replace that and two new air conditioning condensers, had to put the car into the specialized dealer and a major service consisting of brake fluid change, and new plugs, there is another £770 pounds.. Avoid Whitley Bay Motors, they are a joke.

The Dodge was spotless! There was only one guy at Whitley Bay Motors and he was good. I had a brilliant experience with them. The car was also good value for money. I have and will recommend this dealership because I had no issues!

One thing that wasn't great was I was only given 1 months warranty with the Seat I bought from Whitley Bay Motors which isn't very long. everything else though was brilliant! They sorted out any issues straight away and the car was good value for money and clean. I would definitely Recommend!

Really pleased with my Audi A5. I purchased it from Whitley Bay Motors in February and I have had no issues with it at all. It was nice and clean and in great condition and the staff were super helpful and friendly. They also gave me a really good price for my old car.

We bought a Hyundai matrix from Whitley Bay Motors. Just what I needed for work. There was a couple of issues which were resolved quickly and efficiently.
