I have a 2010+ Cayenne diesel & 996 convertible. I am looking for someone in south London to look after the servicing & care for me. To date, I have mainly used the East London Porsche centre, but their recent move has put them too far away. I am trying West London for the next service, but as both cars are out of warranty, i think finding an independent would be worthwhile. The places I can find are: RGA - Have used them, nice guy, can't fault the work so far, but worry its all a bit chaotic there. Charles Ivey - Have heard they are expensive, may as well go to OPC Tower Porsche - any feedback appreciated. GSF - Battersea Many thanks! Quote Reply #1 List Solutions Only 17 Replies

My Boxster has a noise coming from the left rear tyre. It could just be the brakes but I'd like to have it checked soon. I don't want to take it to the dealership as they will likely charge me a fortune even if something minor. Thank you. Andres Quote Reply #12

I have just booked my 981 spyder in for a six year service with East London OPC and I was wondering if anyone knew whether they offered a Porsche Club discount? I forgot to ask at the point of booking and am wondering whether it is worth calling back to ask. The service is just under £1,200 so any discount would make it a bit more palatable!

They will also allow customers to supply their own Mobil 1 providing it is in sealed containers. Both should reduce your costs.

Out of interest do you know what their tyre prices are like? I've got to replace the other three after replacing one that had a nail in but been struggling to find someone local with reasonable prices so always end up sorting when I am up in the Cotswolds as about half the price of that I have had quotes for locally. 981 Spyder Quote Reply #17

For an alternative, I and others go to Black Boots in Chesham (now part of the Protyre network): https://www.blackboots.co.uk Current: 2020 718 GT4 2008 Limited Edition Boxster S 'Orange' 1973 911 Carrera RSR 3.0 Race Car 1964 356 SC Outlaw Previous: 2016 Cayman GTS 2010 Cayenne GTS 2006 Cayenne S 2005 Cayenne S 2004 Boxster S 2000 C2 Cab 1967 912 Quote Reply #18
