Question Any one know of a Manchester based Scooby Specialist?

Chaps

Message on behalf on my dad, any help would be much appreciated.

During the week he is based up in Manchester and his 60k service is coming up (Classic Wagon). My local specialist (Essex) give a price of 429 for this service the best price he has had so far is 5 or 6 hundred.

As such he is tempted to get it done down here one weekend, but obviously if anyone on here knows of or can recommend a good specialist up there he/we would be really grateful.

Any phone numbers / web sites would be a great help.

Cheers.

Prosport somewhere in or near Stockport. They have a website I don't know it though. Do a search it will be somewhere.

Jap Innovations in Oldham.

I think Prosport deal with mainly Subaru`s, and Jap Innovations are jap specialists.
Thats what he meant.

Subaru Service Centre in Sheffield are very good also; theyre ex-Bentley's mechanics and Id recommend them to anyone. Theyre 30 miles away but what a drive over the Snake Pass or Woodead Pass.

Both have looked at my car and I have no complaints at all. Both Jap Innovations and Prosport are very good.
