Anyone used them? Their pricing looks a bit 'uniform' to me.

Bump as I'm thinking of using them for some non service work on my 997 turbo.

Lee is a very pleasant chap and his knowledge of 911s and Boxsters does seem very good - excellent supply of second hand spares and always working on some rather nice cars when ever I get chance to pass by

No connection by the way but I would have no concerns using them or my regular Indy at Cheltenham Porsche

I live in the same village as Lee and know him. I don't have a Porsche, so haven't used him, but he is well regarded around these parts and honest.

Supplied me with a few Boxster parts, easy to deal with however some of their parts were fairly dear. Overall I'd recommend them.

Well, car done and back to me fixed. Firstly, I made it difficult for myself by not being able to pick the car up, but lee delivered it back to me with no complaints at all.

I had a really good chat with lee and the mechanic who are both really nice and enthusiastic. The slave was done, and even though it took much longer than thought lee stuck to his original quoted time without any prompting from me. I can't fault the experience or the business. Touch wood my car should be fine now. I will definatley use them again. I just need to work out if I can cope with not having an OPC stamp for servicing.....!

A solid thumbs up from me and I recommend them to anyone who is looking for a specialist.

Bit of a thread resurrection here biggrin

I had a major service done on my Cayman by CPS yesterday and I'm really pleased with everything they did. Having just bought it last September, I wanted to know any little potential issue and Lee went through everything in fine detail which was great. It seems I bought a good 'un which is always a relief! It just has a few very minor issues which are all easy to sort out eg the battery is getting a bit old, one interior bulb out etc. although I will be replacing the control arms soon due to a tiny bit of play in them. They even fixed the button on my key fob FoC.

So big thumbs up from me and definitely recommended.

I've used them multiple times and outside of an OPC for work that needs to be done by them, I don't think I'd use anyone else. As well as the quality of the 4 or 5 jobs I've had done with them, I've found them really accommodating - agreeing to squeeze me in when I've asked and really friendly.

When I had something wrong which could have been one of two things (one significantly more expensive than the other) Lee ordered both parts, started with the cheaper one to see if that fixed it then returned the other one when the cheaper fix worked. Other places I've had repair work done would have ordered one part and if that hadn't worked had to order the second and make a return visit. Maybe not a big thing, but really meant they could fix it first time.

Lee is also great to have a chat to, and really know his Porsches.

Can't recommend enough - and yes, just a genuinely satisfied customer!

Doesn’t sound like Lee, he is a tight fit, always trying to dodge his subs! smile

If you are reading this Lee - hope you have been saving

They're featured in the Classic & Sportscar May 2021 magazine pp.170-71. I've got a sub, so it may not be in the shops for a few days.
