Late response, however I have used Mark Poole for a few years and was always very happy with the work.

With the amount of race car preparation and running a team, I'm sure theyll be busy
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

As some may know, Mark Buik has sold the business.
The sad part is that all 'round good guy Craig has left the company to pursue other employment away from Porsches (milking Camels or flower arranging or something).
Anyway, it is a huge loss for the Porsche community in Adelaide, as he's the kind of bloke who was always helping everyone no matter who you are. I'm sure (know) I'm not the only one who will miss him, yet I wish him all the very best for the future, as I do Mark and the new owner
I thought that was the case, I went past there for a quote on some work and brakes and they were a bit ruffled. who knows, it might work even better.
what is the Porsche and european place like on Magill road?
I see lots of great comments about Buick Motorworks and hope that their good reputation can continue. Does anybody have any experience with RSR Sports Cars (Mark Poole)? Do they have the same level of satisfied customers?
If not is the Porsche Centre Adelaide any good for older (997) cars?
That’s a shame hopefully it maintains the reputation that even specialists here in Sydney I talked to noted.
I better ask for copies of all the old paperwork on my car I’m told was kept there (before they computerised things) before it’s put in the bin!
Correct. I believe Mark is working in the side street at another warehouse and calling the business Buik Motorsport. With the amount of race car preparation and running a team, I'm sure theyll be busy
No idea mate
And yes, Craig is a helluva bloke
I've never dealt with them mate.
Had my annual service at Buiks on Tuesday.
The place was pumping with cars. Sad to see Craig and Mark go but I had a pleasant experience.
Had a very good chat with Neil (new front of house guy) about all things cars and Porsche.
The hourly rate may have gone up (if so not by much) but the guys are honest and upfront.
+ 1 from me. Was a bit worried at first, but must admit that I'd almost go so far as to say that it was more professional than before. Neil was very helpful, honest and up-front.
Yep, I had some work done on my 928 recently by them and very professional and quick and the price was not as bad as I expected.
All the guys were friendly and I agree with Rick, seem to be a little more professional not that there was anything wrong with the old guys.
Late response, however I have used Mark Poole for a few years and was always very happy with the work. He knows his stuff.
I use Buik mostly now, only because they are walking distance to and from home when I need work done.
I had my 986S in for its annual service at Buik's last week and prior to that had a voltage regulator replaced.
They gave appropriate realistic advice about expected upcoming maintenance.
I also had a problem diagnosed on my Golf GTI.
All good so far. I think it is on a par with the previous owners and would recommend them. And they are a 5 minute walk from work!!
RSR, don't get me started about my experience. I'm sure others have had good service, but I wont go back.
