Suggestion
Since I found them, over 10 years ago, I won't use anyone else.
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.

Hi, i am new here, and recently have left the bosom of the OPC network. I live in South / South East London in Dulwich. I need a good local independent for a 996 and possibly my 2011 Cayenne (also just out of warranty but may continue with the OPC).
The guys I have heard about are:
RGA (Vauxhall)
JJ Engineering (Beckenham)
911Box (Hayes / Bromley)
Charles Ivey (Fulham)
I really need someone I can rely on and trust, and who does a good professional job.
Thanks!
Northway, just west of Reading (junction 12 M4) - highly recommended. Since I found them, over 10 years ago, I won't use anyone else. Ray Northway and Paul Stacey. Brilliant.
+1 for Northway...my car's been going there for around 10 yrs now. They're even just a few minutes walk from Aldermaston Station, so easy to drop off/collect.
Another vote for Northway. Ray knows his stuff and has a loyal custom base.
I use Jaz in Wembley who again have a great rep.
Appreciate its bit of a mission from Dulwich though.
Bought a 986 from Northway, absolutely fantastic service.
986 got written off, replaced with 987 which is under OPC warranty until end of year. Then it will be looked after by Ray & team at Northway. I live in South Wales & although 90+ miles away, the service & no bullshit advice means it's worth travelling for.
Just been on Holiday to Lincoln to see the Three Lancasters - Stayed in Woodhall Spa. I had my Oil Changed last week and as I checked the Water found I had oil in my Water (Not Water in Oil)

Sport 911 in Horncastle
