Wow I was there on Sunday looking at a car as well. No wonder they were really pushy.

Glad I went to Newcastle in the end.

Christopher Neil in Northwich is not to far and Holdcroft in Newcastle shouldn't take to long to get to either. Bit of a bummer if it was right on the doorstep.

I had the phone number with me yesterday as that is where I am getting my car from on Friday.

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

I don't like going to Christopher Neil, as I end up standing there drooling over all the Lotus', Noble's etc and they throw me out shortly afterwards.

And Subaru seemed to have acted quickly as well as Holdcroft Subaru in Widnes has already been removed from the official dealer locator on their website. Oh well time moves on Chris Neil here I come.

any outstanding problems or parts orders will be dealt with through holdcroft newcastle. they are a helpful bunch down there but maybe a little far from you all.

hope to speak to you soon

Couldn't happen soon enough, joshed me over an '05 WRX SL earlier in the year, 95 mile round trip and no car. T***ERS. Suppose all the sales staff are off to sell funeral policies to vunerable grannies. Good ridence to bad news. you Widnes boys and girls will have to apply for a Visa to cross the water.
