Hi, I need some work done on my Chim 500 and looking for a solid, sensible and capable service Centre. Probably the two closest to me are Str8Six and Topcats and wonder if anyone can particularly recommend either?

Thanks

I use Jason at Str8six. I've use him since I had my Cerb and he has always been great to deal with. Amazing service, knowledge and pricing.

Never used Topcats but also hear great things about Warren and the team so you will be good with whichever one you choose!

I don't think you will go wrong with either. Have a chat with both and see which one you get on with the best.

Some of Str8six's handy work, they'd be my choice.

I'm biased, but Str8Six for me.

If you have a grievance with them at all, talk to Jason personally - He genuinely cares, he'll sort it out.

I've used both and Top Cats is where I'd recommend, I know lots of people are happy with Str8six which is why i originally went to them, but I was not at all impressed with Str8six especially their lack of helpfulness after I had problems post engine rebuild.

Top Cats have been spot on.

Not used TopCats but it's Jason at Str8six every day of the week for me. Jason has looked after both my cars for the last 5 or 6 years. I would always recommend him on three counts. First, whenever the cars go in for work, Jason always calls me before work starts with a list and let's me know what's advisory and what he recommends needs to be done. Second his work is of the highest standards and Gordon is a God. Third, and most importantly for me, Jason really cares....
