Hi, I'm in Edinburgh and wanted to know where Scotland South PCGB members get their cars serviced. I've had my 996 C4S just over 8 years, initially taking the car to the main Porsche dealer for 3 years or so and for the last 5 i've been using an independent, David Phillips. Can anyone share their experience or thoughts on who they use for servicing? Also, considering a Gundo Hack- worth it? Thank you, Tim Quote Reply #1 5 Replies

Best of luck! Quote Reply #3

I've been going there for over 20 years and they've been great! Quote Reply #6
