Thumbs up Essex Based Subaru Specialists?

Hi Guys

I'm in the process of buying my first Impreza Turbo and wanted to know if there are any Subaru Specialist that any of you Essex (I'm in Brentwood) based Scooby owners can recommend.

Basically as and when I need to service, mechanically repair my car I prefer to pay for knowledge but not the badge (main dealer).

Any idea of there rates etc..
Any info that I or others reading this thread will find helpful.
Or alternatively any garages that have ripped you off!!

Thanks
Alex

Xtreme Scoobies would be a good starting point. They've done the last two services on my car. Very knowledgable and good prices.

Thanks for the offer, I think I'll wait till I have my Impreza first, never did like being the odd one out (not that I ever was!!). Although I may tuck my prelude into a corner and have a chat. What sort of time do you meet up etc?
