Centre Gravity don't want my business? Alternatives?

I've called them a few times, never had anyone answer. Left 2 messages asking them to call me back. Silence. They're clearly not interested in taking my money. Is this level of customer service typical?
Who else would get a recommendation to do a suspension refresh on my 997GTS - preferably in Scotland. Any suggestions appreciated!

Just book online, I used to book using email, and no disrespect to CG, it was slow and could cause issues with availability slots and me replying etc so online is much simpler. There's a space in the online booking where you put in some text, e.g. I'm concerned I had faulty shock.
I'm sure the service will be great once you're there in person.
Good luck, I'm off there Monday so an early start as I'm in London.

It's a small, very specialised, very successful family business that focuses on doing the job correctly. Who else would get a recommendation to do a suspension refresh on my 997GTS - preferably in Scotland. Any suggestions appreciated!
If you want to speak to them prior to an appointment/them working on your car, then do as others have said and book the appointment on line and in the notes section request a phonecall with them prior to taking the car in, or just email them and then be patient.

But that was very withering.
My mate runs his own garage very successfully! He averaged a chargeable 42 hours a week for a 52 week year! He has his regular clientele who trust him totally. When a new customer comes along and ask 'How much for this and would you work out a quote for me?' He say's No it costs what it costs. It is a waste of his time doing a quote for a punter who might never get the job done.!

I've a mate that specialises in Ferrari and Maserati servicing and repairs.I worked with him for 6 months a couple of years ago.
Most people have no idea how long getting quotes together takes these days. Often for the prospective customer only to turn around and say "Oh, so and so have quoted £50 less. Can you price match or beat their quote ?"
The answer was ALWAYS monosyllabic ...
Worse still were traders getting quotes to play the specialists off against each other. Once he knew who they were, he either told them he wouldn't quote, or he'd just inflate it to the degree he knew he wouldn't get the job.
