Can anyone advise the best place to go for servicing?

Never had a car worth servicing, so new to it all. Is it better to take it to a Nissan dealer, somewhere like Halfords or Kwik Fit, or to any old garage?

If anyone could recommend somewhere in Gateshead/Newcastle as well, that'd be great.

Thanks

Starseven, firstly welcome ! What you do not mention is whether presumably the QQ is a J10 (Old) or the J11 (New). Obviously if it is the newer version I would recommend that you stick with a Nissan Dealer due to the Guarantee & the Stamp in the Service Book. It would most probably be advisable also to stick with Nissan even if it an older version as at the very least they know the QQ, have the equipment, knowledge but of course also highly likely a higher cost (obviously there are good & bad Dealers around also). Obviously you need to look around for a none Dealer Workshop, Quality of the work, cost etc. - Dave ;)

Additionally with Nissan once outside guarantee they offer fixed price servicing; additionally they'll update your software for free (which others can't), and you get free 12 months roadside breakdown cover from RAC too. So paying a little extra has benefits.
Find out the cost here;
