Does anyone know of anybody (Main dealers or otherwise) who service imports in the West Yorkshire or Birmingham areas?

Well Lane Turbo Centre, Batley, West Yorks.

Said they serviced UK and import turbos, at the last Dyno meet there.

Yep Well Lane Turbo centre - and there pretty cheap

My UK Turbo's just out of warrenty, should I carry on with a Subaru dealer or use somebody like Well Lane for servicing ?

Any suggestions welcome !!

I'd use Well Lane - there cheaper than the Subaru dealer.

Who do you use - the one near Holm Firth?

Yep, I use RN Goldens based just outside New Mill (Holmfirth).

But am considering either Well Lane or Auto Tecnica (my supplier).

Just wondered what you thought ...

The people at Holmfirth seem friendly enough.

My mates live around, Emley/Denby Dale road area + Mirfield.

Took a UK car for a test drive there last March. They were OK - minimal test drive though and couldn't belt it - know the roads very... well around there. There's a real c**t of a road a few miles away - long straight into a dip and up again - you no the one, were you groung the car if you go too fast on the road.

As far as servicing goes, Well Lane is probably a bit far from you - dont know which side of Huddersfield you live?

Well Lane are the best I've come across for modifications, and the cheapest.

They've serviced a lot of UK versions and imports. The servicing of these cars is actually very basic, except when you need to remove the cam belt, or change the spark plugs.

Well Lane charge about £35+vat an hour, and thats definately cheaper than the main dealer - my preference would be to take it to Well Lane as they will, invariably in my experience do a better job than most garages.

Get a price before hand. I know that if the clutch ever goes on my car its going straight to Well Lane, as they are about £300 cheaper than a main dealer/Power Engineering/Interpro.

I have a choice as I skit between Bristol/ London and Wakefield (Middlestown - were everything happens - not!).

See ya on the 7th?
