Default Carnetix do it again!!

Glen and Becky have restored my faith in the steering on my Legacy. For a couple of years now the steering has felt vague and woolly and it tramlined like mad. It has been into several main dealers for geometry checks and they said there was no prblem with it.

After just a couple of hours with Carnetix it now feels like a different car - and no Glen I really did not think it would go round that corner at that speed!!

Not quite as good as my Scoob but now such a pleasure to drive.

Thanks guys another great job done!

I can highly recommend these guys, go to Carnetix - The home of Saab and Subaru performance in the Midlands and find out more.

It is also worth your while joining LJP or Fenland Flat Fours too, if you know what I mean.

Had my first visit yesterday to get my gauges fitted. Was really impressed with the service and workshop. Glen and Becky were really top people and certainly know their scoobies inside out. The work on the gauges is second to non and all wiring is very neat Glen did a top job Can't waitformy next visit.
