Default Pole position west midlands

When there yesterday to collect some parts, seem like very genuine guys and enthusiasts. Defiantly know what they talking about too.

Had a word with one of the lads there as im due a service soon and he said around£240 including cambelt, but not the plugs he would do it all. there is nothing near me that are scooby specialist so dont mind traveling abit.

Has anyone used these guys before and what did u think, good work etc. Like to do my homework, have done a search too.

Yeah good guys, i have never used them cause i like to do all my own work, but i have a friend who uses them all the time. They also have a lot of second hand parts available. If i ever needed some pros to do something to my car, i would take it there.

i personally know sha, mark and jezz from before the days of pole position, they are a great bunch of lads and i can recommend them highly, i personally use a lad called darren @ central subaru he has been working on suabru's a lot longer than the boys at pole position, simply as i believe experience counts for everything hope this helps a bit

I've used Pole position a few times, great bunch of lads. Never used Daz at Central so cant comment. Forresters in Bilston for me was a waste of time wouldnt go there again.

A friend went there just to have plugs changed and lets just say they didnt treat his pride and joy as it should have been.

My experiences only, sure there are many happy customers but as i say the few times i have been there i wasnt treated how a customer should be.

This is a reply to Forresters in bilston
