Hi all, just wondering if anyone here has made use of any of the Porsche specialists around the area and whether they have any feedback?

The ones I've managed to find are:

D&G Porsche Specialists - Walker
Tom Ferguson - Gateshead
Porsche Centre Newcastle - Silverlink

Thanks

Thanks all. I've heard of Nelson and have only heard good things, although I'm likely to need a minor piece of warranty work doing so was hoping to find someone more local, as a two hour round trip is a bit much really for what I need right now; I will certainly consider Nelson for my yearly service and examination though.

I'll give D&G and Tom Ferguson a call and see what they say about it for this particular piece of work.

I did end up using D&G in the end. Seemed very professional, and a nice set up they had there. Unfortunately they couldn't find the fault (understandable due to the intermittent nature of it), but they did identify other areas to rectify, having done a full inspection of the car. Bit naughty that the place who sold it to me didn't inspect it to the same degree before I sold it. Moral of the story is, I guess, don't expect that buying a car from a dealer, even one with a good rep, will guarantee a better car, it'll only guarantee you'll pay more.

I digress, I will be happy to use D&G again in the future,.

Ive used AHRS in Bishop Auckland a few times. Definitely worth the trip from Newcastle. Alan, the owner has multiple years experience working with Carrera Cup and supercup teams. Friendly service and attention to detail.

Wouldn't go anywhere else now.

Alan serviced our 996 yesterday. So impressed. Thanks for the recommendation.
No worries. Not sure why anyone would go anywhere else tbh.
For me it's just distance. If they need to keep the car, then I have to get back somehow. I will bare them in mind though for sure.
