Service in London

[fulham911club]

Other than OPC at Chiswick who do people recommend for servicing?

I just need the annual jobby this year and given the car will be 3yo imminently I can't see the point of paying the OPC margin.

Charles Ivey in Chelsea are good IMHO but only 5 to 10% less than OPC but much more personalised service and local collect / deliver

or try...

Chelsea Carrera, Ltd Seagrave Road, London SW6 Tel. [phone] or 07767 838001. Well respected small outfit (they have 2 ramps only and a small yard but were OPC trained. I've not used them myself but my neighbour has and recommends them on his 964. Better for 993 or earlier cars I suspect.

Yes I live just round the corner from them so v convenient. 12,000 mile service is 280GBP at Charles Ivey 322GBP at OPC in Chiswick.

Makes you think though that for the extra 40 quid its better to get an OPC stamp?

Not sure what your car is Fulham911club but later 996 onwards I can see the temptation to go OPC (Guess their marketing works) Personally I don't value an OPC stamp over a good independent like Charles Ivey, JZ etc etc... I have TT and am happy with Charles Ivey. It's much more personal, they test the car after, deliver to the door. recommend future actions, do deals on servicing etc etc. Beware Mobile 1 is extra as they use Shell.
