After picking up my first scooby on saturday (and spending the whole weekend enjoying it) ive decided i want to put her in for a full service (just for peace of mind really).
Whats best, should I go to Subaru or scoobysport or somewhere else (in the essex area). Any advice would be great.

Depends on mileage and prev history

Either a full service or interim depending what it last had

Also think about spark plugs and cam belt

options are

try www.powerengineering.com - good but expensive
or www.powerstation.org.uk - good and fair
or www.rogerclarkmotorsport.com - recommended by Chris

can recommend Scoobysport in Essex - though I did have to waiti around a bit longer than I would have like for the while u wait oil service. Nice bunch though and more reasonable than main dealer. Obv. depends how far you have to drive if it's worth it.
