Hi.

I am circling a nice Cayman S near Birmingham and am at the stage where I need the name of a good PPI Inspector in the area. Could anyone recommend one please?

I'm quite pleased with the car I've found, but it does have a soaking wet drivers-side door (the furry bit at the bottom to be technical about it) and I'd have a PPI done anyway regardless of that...

Thanks in advance.

Peter Morgan associates cover that area. Couldn't recommend them more highly. Excellent job on mine.

Peter Morgan if you want the full monty report with photographs or PCT if you want someone to put it up on a ramp, poke and prod it and tell you if it's a good one.

Shirleys of Meriden will give it a thorough inspection with a report etc. - saying that the company is next door to Shirleys - think it might be called Porschetech.

PCT are apparently not willing to do formal inspections per se as they are not insured - at least that's what Nick (owner?) told me a couple of years ago...might have changed since then...

Peter Morgan gets my vote.....carried out an inspection on a car for sale I was interested in at an OPC and discovered several areas requiring attention despite having the Porsche check. I actually bought the car!

Hi again.

I just wanted to say thank you for your replies. I emailed a couple of you directly to get opinions on specific garages / PPI's but the email system seems to be playing up, so here's a general 'thank you'.
