As always, excellent service brilliant!

Great service from Will and his colleagues in arranging a part exchange.

Purchased new T7 Kombi van and had excellent customer care from Mariana MacLean all the way from initial enquiry to collecting the van.

Excellent customer service from Aaron.
Very professional and patient with customer requirements

I was looked after by Erin at Highland Audi. She was so patient and knowledgeable and really put me at ease. Erin took lots of time going through a number of options and followed up afterwards to see how I was getting on. I will absolutely go back to Erin in the future.

Great customer service yesterday when I was struggling to charge my car. From the very helpful receptionist to the salesman that went above and beyond to help me resolve my issue.
I can’t thank you all enough. It’s very refreshing to see such service and kindness. I will be back for my MOT etc in the future.
Thanks again
Karen 😀

Very poor experience at Highland Audi. I’ve been a customer for over 10 years and this would have been my 4th new Audi, but after agreeing a deal, I was told the car wasn’t now available and they would need to order the car. The price would change when reordered, so no firm figures offered— all while being considerably more expensive than other dealers. The sales manager was rude and confrontational, in front of another sales person, which made it worse. Other Audi dealerships I spoke to were far more professional and treated me like a valued customer. I’d recommend going elsewhere.

Hawco Peterhead,I got a brand new car it had not even done 4000 miles and it started making a funny noise when it heated up.they checked the car twice and said it was just the noise of the car there was nothing wrong!

I decided to get a second opinion from another vw dealer they took the car in and within hours they had told me the timing belt was frayed and could have snapped at any time.

I informed them of this and the e-mail I got back from them was glad you got it sorted! No apology nothing.

If you are thinking of buying a car from hawco Peterhead I would strongly advise you not to.

Great selection of cars at Inverness VW Branch. Salesperson Derek Morrice was a delight to work with, no heavy sales patter, I received a good enough deal for my trade-in and I have the car I wanted.

Recently asked Hawco VW commercial to quote me for replacing transmission sump gasket and oil as the gasket had a slight leak. They said I had to book it in for a diagnostic check which would cost £162. I said I don’t need that as it was me who found the leak and all I need is a quote to replace gasket and oil but they told me it was policy to get the check done first.
I did not need this expensive check as I knew what the issue was and was asking for a simple job to be quoted for and carried out. If they wanted to check for themselves before starting that would be fine but that would take literally 30 seconds. £162 is around an hour and a half’s labour time even at an extortionate rate.
I ended up doing the job myself for less than the price of the check!

VW and Hawco do good work and have great staff but this price related issue needs addressed.

Ordered oil and filter from Hawco Audi Inverness on Saturday. Gave my registration number and was assured 5 litres would be sufficient as it only requires 4.6 litres.
Got a phone call from our local garage on Tuesday, there’s not enough oil, the car will need over 6 litres.
Phone Audi again, “ah yes, your car is a 3 litre engine so it will need more oil” 🙄. Pretty sure this would have shown up when they typed the number plate in to their system!
Audi assured me they would phone the local garage and arrange delivery as we don’t live in Inverness.
This morning, get another call from the local garage as the oil hasn’t been delivered.
Phone Audi, “we didn’t know which courier to send it up with”. Really?? After phoning the local garage specifically to discuss this issue AND being told by them which courier to use? Then lying to try and save face by saying they weren’t told…if so, what was the point in that phone call then?
So now, a simple oil change which should have taken half a day has now rolled on for 3 days (assuming the oil actually arrives tomorrow) all because Hawco can’t be bothered to train their staff in the very basics such knowing how much oil each car type takes.
Hawco are an utter disgrace living off the family name of relatives that build the company. Avoid if possible as they really do not care about their customers.

I booked a test drive today in an ID3. The service was very efficient, with the car prepared and ready to go as arranged. I was very impressed with the salesperson, Erin, who clearly showed me how to work the technology and answered all my questions in a friendly and knowledgeable way.

My experience with Hawco group and VW customer services started with a six month repair of the media system in our T6.
This began with ‘nothing we can do’ then “nothing we can do until VW issues a software fix”, then “ we could maybe replace the media unit”… and a bare minimum of service after that.

After finally fixing that problem, after 5 or 6 visits, they noticed a couple of bubbles in the paint work on the tailgate… take it to our bodyshop for a quote to send to VW…. A week later they call me to tell me VW says they wont pay for the repair, thats a grand please to fix it, oh and your only a month out of warranty on the paint, no good will… tough.

VW did eventually agree to a 90% contribution though - more than happy with that.

When the paint is repaired I pick it up, “ all covered under warranty” I’m told, how nice, are you sure? “yes” said Hawco… off I go on my merry way and I even told VW customer services of the conversation, who called that afternoon to try to close the case , who didn’t disagree and said they had covered the cost.

A week later Hawco now want the 10%, and following a heated call with them where I point out they offered nothing in the way of a goodwill gesture following the months of terrible service and they told me twice it was covered, and of the call with VW customer they still insist on it.

Then a week later I get a call from VW customer services telling me I still owe the 10%, which I’m sure I’ll end up paying just to end this farce.

I’ve no problem with the contribution at all, just the awful, terrible service that Hawco offers, I’ll never, ever set foot in that place again.

My wife wanted Audi to check the battery, and find the cause of a noise coming from the rear. They charged over £200 to say the battery was not holding its charge, and provided a long list of things wrong, which would cost over £3000 to fix, but couldn't say what the noise was, which was apparently from the front, travelling to the back. Complete nonsense, told them they were pulling the wool over my eyes. Rude, patronising, hardnosed, inaccurate............ won't be back.

Travelled up to Hawko Elgin after seeing my car advertised, and made an enquiry. Graham and the rest of the team were amazing - super helpful, great communication, and bent over backwards to help us.

We travelled up from Northampton to drive the car home, and the whole experience was a joy from start to finish - they're all so friendly and genuine, helpful and honest. An absolute credit to Volkswagen.

I have an Audi A4 purchased from Highland Audi, a fault arose with my stop start system, this was fixed under warranty, the staff were absolutely brilliant, making my experience very pleasant, I travelled from Thurso and was provided with a courtesy car until the car was fixed. Highly recommend Highland Audi for car sales and after care service.

Purchased a Kia Sportarge from Elgin Hawkco. Could not fault the service Graham Bell provided 100% service from start to finish. Made the process so easy. Would definitely recommend Elgin Hawkco.

Ok, I’m up on holiday in Moray. My VW T6 is 7days, yes, 7 days out of manufacturers warranty when a shock absorber explodes. 25k miles. Both VW and Hawco want full price for repair. That’s the level of service from Hawco and VW. Hawco told VW that “they’d never seen the vehicle before” - what’s that about? Do I need to visit every VW dealer wherever I go on holiday so that they can admire my vehicle? Hugely disappointed with zero customer service from both VW and Hawco. It’s the last time I set foot on a VW dealers’ forecourt, and you can kiss goodbye to the ID Buzz I was going to order - from Hawco, as I’m moving up here. It’s your loss. 7 days out of warranty and Hawco/VW couldn’t give a stuff. Beware folks!

Very disappointing service and not able to communicate between them when arranging a new car to be collected. They put our car round to a ceramic polisher and then took it away again and asked for the payment which was done, then they wouldn't put it back as then they where liable going round on trade plates. I asked for an invoice and was given a 75 x 25mm that I couldn't read, but I made the payment anyway. We have to wait till the car is taxed before we can take it to the polisher therefore delaying the appointment. We complained but the Sales Manager was no better. I would say for customer service I can only describe it as very poor. The car is an RS3 for my son who will buy lots of cars in his life, but now not from them. Just a pity Audi uses a poor dealer....the servicing will be done at Audi Perth. The only reason we dealt with Inverness, is my son new the sales person as we had been told by others they were generally quite poor.
