Another vote of confidence in Precision Porsche from me.
Me too. Been running modified high performance cars for nearly 20 years and am not averse to getting my hands greasy, so have a good idea of what good work looks like.I had a minor issue with 9E and my understanding is that Ken was working in IT 15 years ago and outsources some of the stuff they imply they do in house (e.g. mapping). Plus they're not far off dealership prices. They look after a huge number of older Porsches, so are clearly doing something right, but I got the impression that you're certainly paying for their premises and clean look.
Very happy with Precision, much more of a back street garage type vibe, but Angus knows the older cars inside out, having run them in race series.
I asked them to do a lot of non standard stuff on my car and they were very accommodating and professional, despite being very busy. Prices are reasonable too.

Paragon rebuilt an engine for me and dragged the rear bumper across the workshop floor before fitting it. It was repainted by them but a load of faff for me and a repeat visit which was not really compensated. Wouldn't use them again but I may be the only one complaining…
I went to Paragon once- never again, I found the service appalling.And, their cars for sale always seem considerably over market price, not sure
how they make a living……

Interesting. I used Precision who are local to me for the first time last month after my OPC messed a couple of things up at a (quite expensive) service last time, and have been very happy with their work.
