I'm with Stirlings on this one.

In my humble experience , Exeter Porsche outshines all the others I have come into contact with.

Wayne Blackhall Chief Workshop Technician really is exceptional.

OP the question you have asked is basically like asking where we live; almost every OPC in the UK has been named wink

Good to hear that you are all being taken good care of, the length and breadth of the country. This type of thread usually goes the other way.

Not entirely true - I travel past a couple of OPCs to deal directly with Reading...I'm sure the others are fine (and indeed others have mentioned them in this thread), but my ongoing relationship is with Reading who have always looked after me well.

OPC Colchester are always great...bought 3 Porsches off them brand new...they've looked after me well and been fair with their servicing costs too.

I have good experiences with both Chester and Edinburgh. I've also heard great things about Jersey and Silverstone.

There are some very bad OPCs as well but it's sometimes better to say nothing if you've nothing good to say. wink

Nail. Hit. Head.

Also, you will likely get treated very differently based upon your history. I must admit i am overall very happy with OPC Tonbridge, but then in partnership with my old man we must have bought 7 cars from them. And it still didn't get me a GT4 wink

My experience of all OPCs have been fairly consistent, which is what you expect. The difference is going to come from the individuals you deal with. I was pretty happy with OPC Colchester after buying a car, but about 6 months on i'm still waiting for a replacement service book! I had the same issue with a VW and it was resolved within 2 weeks.

My whole experience of buying a car from OPC Sheffield was so bad that I would not go there again to buy a car even if they gave a 50% discount and threw in a free night with Kate Upton.
They were seriously appalling imho.

Now I had a totally different experience when I bought my spyder from Sheffield late 2011.
Firstly they gave me a top trade in price for my 987.1 CS with out seeing the car as I live over 200 miles away and I was already getting 17% of list of the new preregd Spyder.
All in all a great experience!i would never deal with mid Sussex as they really like to bend you over yikesthey wanted to give me £5k less for my car and wanted £3k more for a spyder they had in stock!
Also had good buying experience with Silverstone it really does pay to shop around to get best deal on a stock car.
Bought my first new Porsche from colchester 12 years ago and have all my servicing done there but I do not let them wash the car after, they even sorted me out a good will brand new engine when the ims lunched itself at 3.5 years old on my 986s and no warranty on the car it was only off the road for 10 days over Xmas!So a big plus for colchester service department.

There are a few that are conspicuously absent, I'm sure they're brilliant but noone has mentioned them - East & West London, Guildford, Hatfield...

I bought my used Panamera through Mayfair and found them excellent throughout the whole process. There were a couple of niggles (front passenger door main speaker cover came loose and started rattling), which were resolved without any objection. Decent guys there who took the time to help me out.

I have used Porsche West London for a couple of service related issues since buying and they too have been very helpful.

I have had outstanding customer service from Dick Lovett OPC Bristol in both sales and servicing.

I cannot recommend them highly enough.
