I was in there Sunday looking to buy a car and nothing was said, pretty lucky there I suppose.

You will have to go to either Holdcroft Newcastle-under-Lyme or Christopher Neil in Northwich.

Holdcroft Newcastle (under Lyme): 01782 617321
Christopher Neil (Northwich): 01606 41481

I got my car from Newcastle and was very happy with the service I got from the Dealer manager and the sales guys.

Hurry up Friday...

Default yes we are closed

its true
holdcroft subaru/isuzu in widnes is now closed for business
we all found out tuesday morning when they came in to close us down.
unfortunatly we are all out of jobs at the moment but we hopng to be working soon.
shame cos we were starting to get somewhere with our customers regarding satisfaction and service over the last six months or so.

its been a pleasure speaking to some of you in person and on the phone and hopefully have changed your minds about main deallers, we are not all out to rip you off.

hopefully speak to you again soon somewhere else
