Would recommend …

Having made a previous visit when I couldn't find what I was looking for I was contacted by Richard Pemberton. He suggested that I should come up and view some of the stock they had. I made a return visit on Friday and was greeted by Ben Hughes who showed me around one of the type of vehicles that I am interested in, I found him to be very knowledgeable and explained the features of the car. I look forward to a return visit in the very near future, thanks to both of you for your assistance. I shall be returning 🙂

Great customer service - marcel rogers

Great customer service from Marcel Rogers at Basildon. My daughter had an intermittent scraping noise from a wheel and couldn’t get it looked by service for a week (which is not so good) but Marcel in sales sorted it out for her within an hour. Brilliant

Nearly 12 months without my car

Here I am again, writing a poor review for Vauxhall Toomey Basildon

My previous reviews seemed to of been removed.

Customer service as Toomey Vauxhall Basildon repairs … appalling, along with the manager who seem to ignore my emails, they have had my car for 10 months (bar 2 weeks in January when I paid my bill) they have it back as the part “fixed” wasn’t correct so had to order another. Here I am 7 months down the line still without my car. Finance is due to end in sept 2026 and no confirmation of proof they are chasing the part as they have told me a number of times. WHY the delay!!! You know I want to hand the car back to Stellantis I paid my bill and I can’t hand it back until road worthy. It is out of my hands. I need a call today

Hello Lisa,

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We are very sorry for the ongoing delay and appreciate how frustrating it must be to have been without your vehicle for such a prolonged period.

We understand that the outstanding part is still awaited, and our team is continuing to chase the supplier regularly for an update.

A member of our team has spoken with you recently and has also emailed you to explain the process and the position regarding your vehicle and finance agreement should the repair extend beyond the final payment date.

We appreciate your patience while we continue to pursue this matter and will provide you with an update as soon as we receive further information from the supplier.

Kind regards, Vauxhall Toomey Basildon.

Diagnostics and repairs were done and my car was ready for pickup a lot quicker than I expected, Jaimie and Olivia (Toomey customer service staff) were absolutely great all through the experience; empathetic, supportive and regularly reached out to provide updates. I wish all motor garages operated in this fashion, because this was definitely a 5-star experience.

First time visitor....

First time I have taken my car here for a service, and both the car and I were very well treated! Sofia was very helpful when checking the car in, and when she checked it back out she went through all the points with me. Nice waiting area, and I really liked the screen showing progress for each vehicle. Free refreshments (even if the multiple recycling bins were a bit confusing, lol) was very welcome. Air con too, so perfect when waiting on a hot day....

Olivia

Olivia explained everything in a clear and professional manner. She dealt with the paperwork efficiently and quickly and explained that I would get a video of the inspection. She is a credit to the Hyundai team and really welcoming as you come into the showroom. She definitely deserves a gold star.
