..never used anyone over that way, but I believe Marque 21 have a good reputation?

Worth a phonecall, and a great place for a long walk whilst you wait.

When I first purchased my 996T ( over 8 years ago now) I gave JMG the chance to quote for a major service minus a few bits I wanted to do myself, they actually came back more expensive than the Bournemouth OPC. Since then the car has been serviced at the OPC every time minus one biggie which deserved a trip up to 9E. Cannot praise the Bournemouth OPC enough, relatively competitive pricing, great replacement car whilst yours is in etc...

Try Matt @ ZRS Engineering in Poole. He looked after my turbo and GT3 and does a lot of high end GT’s and classics.

I'd echo that on Bournemouth also found them very fair on pricing, good communications.

I've never yet heard consistent enough recommendations about indies in the area, seems hit & miss in terms of reports.
