are scoobysport any good at what they do? are they good mechanics or are they more for styling etc?

 

er...are you joking?

 

Where are Scoobysport based? Id be interested to see if they could do anything to a MY03 without violating any warranties....

(if thats at all possible and theyre close enough!)

 

not joking i wanted to hear people views that have been to them, thats all, just doing some research as i am looking at places to work on my little baby.

so i take it you are a fan of their work then?

 

The best thing i can say is do a search on Pete Croney in these forums, he was one of the founders of scoobysport and a bit of a Guru on these boards, what Pete doenst know about Imprezas isnt worth knowing!



Cheers

 

Second that and yes they service your car as well

 

Some people have different things to say about Scoobysport. Some good, others not so good. My own personal experiences have been very good and I've had quite alot of work done there.

thankx for the replies guys! just wanted to canvas some opinions before i let someone else play with my beloved car! they sound like they know what they're doing!

 

Dont touch scoobysport if you value your car!!!!
speak to a few more people in the know first!!

 

Comments like that should be kept off a public bbs unless you're gonna say why.
I had a couple of big issues with a certain supplier and there's no way i'd use them again. At the same time i would not dream of naming them as there are a lot of people who are happy with their service, just like Scobysport.
Either edit your comment or supply evidence.

 

6 posts and already has a very damaging opinion which appears to be based on hearsay rather than personal experience. Always found Pete and the guys very helpful.

Never had a problem with Pete

Do have a problem with coments like that from a newbie

 

Pete's a top bloke!.

second what Phil says

xfordman, have you had personal experience? If so, state the facts.

We are careful on here about libel/slander. I can't see a problem with your post but it would be a lot more use / fair to everyone if you put a reasoned argument up rather than what could be groundless mud-slinging.

Regards,
Nick.

 

Look here for my experience.www.geocities.com/harveysmith3000.

 

All the dealings I have had with Scoobysport have been excellent. On the one occasion I was disappointed with their performance, all issues were resolved swiftly and to my complete satisfaction.

Scoobysport-ed MY01

Scoobysport fitted my GroupN+ discs and pads with no problems at all.

The only problem I've ever had with them with a minor anonyance... I attended site on a Saturday morning for a full decat, in addition to my existing Scoobysport back box, and green panel air filter, but they didn't have any of the correct centre sections in store.
They apologised and agreed to fit one at my next earliest possible oppurtunity, which was the following Tuesday.

Fortunately for me, I went round the corner to Hayward&Scott to meet a friend having some work done their. The chaps overheard my plight and very kindly fitted a centre section there and then for me.

Like I said, this was only a minor problem and it won't stop me from going back there in the future, if the modding bug or wallett takes me.

Everyone seems to have good and bad experiences with most garages. It is very unfortunate for those that have bad experiences, but from what I've seen and read anyone who's ever had a problem with Scoobysport has had it resolved. So while it's a pain in the ar$e, there's no outstanding problem.

 

Scoobysport did a lot of work on my Terzo and it was always 100%.

Top company & Pete's a top bloke.

And as I don't have a scoob any more I have nothing to gain with this recomendation.

 

Pete is full of helpfull advice even if you dont actually go to him for any work.
Cant praise him enough sometimes.

this is very true...!!
