My friend has a 911 2001 plate and he is looking for a good independent garage within 10-15 miles of Enfield/Palmers Green to look after his baby as he has had an awful time with the main dealers..

Any recommendations?

Small place called Porscheworx in Hampstead, NW3. Not tried them myself, but have good clean premises (if that counts for anything....)

These are the guys Portiacraft use for the big jobs - worth using them without PC adding their mark up

I used Porsheworx about 5 times a couple of years ago. It started of well, but after a while their work became sloppy & bills became larger that they quoted.

A couple of times they didn't show up for pre-arranged collecting of my 996. Mario is the guy who was running it, he did have staffing problems at the time.

Nothing near the main dealer quality - you get what you pay for, so if you expectation is set right, you should be happy!

I used Porscheworx... and then I used JZMachtech, consequently I no longer use Porscheworx.

Machtech are a large, professional, well run, main dealer like independent. Porscheworx are a smaller operation, and my one experience was not one that I would like to repeat. Shall I leave it at that?
