Default Sparshatts of Botley

I’ve just moved to Lovedean, near Waterloovile in Hants. I’m looking for a new dealer to service my 03 WRX. Is Sparshatts of Botley my only option without having to travel miles.

Has anyone got a good word to say about Sparshatts? I’ve only heard bad things on here about them.


Thanks in advance Tony

Hi Tony,

So far, I've not had any problems with dealing with Sparhatts. Always sorted out any niggly warranty issues I've had (have ongoing suspension clunking at the moment).

Been very happy with the service to date.

I've used Sparshatts a few times for parts/servicing and first MOT in Jan. Haven't had a problem yet, always found them to be OK.

It's a shame I'm always out on Mondays, The seagull is a 5 minute walk from my house!!!
