Have to agree, Austec are the men for you.

They look after my Griff for me & do a fantastic job.

Castle Motor Sport near Gatwick are the most competent (almost too finnicky) I have come across - several of the TVR Speed Championship boys use them.

Unless you've tried them both (I have) why would there be 'no question at all' ?

I have used both, for major and minor work on a number of occasions for each.

Austec all the way - unquestionably. Without a doubt the best outfit I've used by some distance, and I've used a number of PH-recommended specialists, and my local main dealer.
