Yes,
its due to open first week in April. I think long overdue as Sytner (Edinburgh & Glasgow) have had it all their own way for too long. Peter Vardy group, IMO are easier to deal with and more 'human'. Edinburgh and Glasgow don't get a good crit from a lot of Porsche owners in Scotland and Edinburgh have gone through a bit of turmoil recently with their managing director at Edinburgh resigning.

The new dealer principle is Paul Farrell who was DP at Glasgow for many years he is taking over the whole complex at Frt Kinnaird Porsche/ Ferrari/Lambo /Bentley /Maserati ..Used both dealerships over the years and bought a couple of cars from Edinburgh .I have a good relationship with both I hope ,and always been able to negotiate favourable prices on service work .Paul is also into motor sports and has a good relationship with owners at track days and hill climbs.
There was a Perth dealership Camerons many years ago and that gave a balance off 4 dealers in Scotland so we have gone full circle .Any competition is good and gives us buyers a say as to where we spend our cash .

I've always found Paul good to deal with, and genuinely concerned about his customers. Unfortunately, the egregious failures of competence and the way that Sytner focuses on process as a substitute for competence undo all the good work that he does personally. I've only just discovered OPC Perth and, as soon as I get my 911 back from Glasgow (waiting a month or more for a window regulator), I'll check Perth out.

I’ve been in a couple of times now and I must say they are very welcoming and friendly and genuinely enthusiastic about the Porsche brand.
I had a couple of conversations with their parts department this week and they were friendly and helpful - above and beyond the call. As soon as I get my car back from OPC Glasgow, I’ll be moving my business to them.Good to see Porsche back in Perth. The move from Camerons was daft and I'm sure cost a number of sales.
I've popped into the new dealership a couple of times. Limited used stock at the moment and they appear somewhat hamstrung by the current factory limitations. But very welcoming and helpful.
Probably going to cost me in the long run as the are only a few miles down the road...

Been in a couple of times..going to an invitation only day on the 26thMay with the TIPEC guys for a look round, car inspections photo shoot + test drives .The local PCGB have been, and another day is planned for June .Get my cars serviced at Glasgow and Edinburgh and get excellent service and extremely good rates ..Next services are not until Sept 2019 and April 2020 so will get a quote for work then .Getting to Edinburgh from the west is a faff and could possibly do Perth quicker even though it is more miles hate that M8 and Bypass .I remember the old Camerons and went to a couple of good events hosted by then way back in the 90s
