Default Clutch fitting in Cheshire

Looking for a decent place to fit a new clutch and flywheel to my 99 UK turbo. Have asked Andy Williams near Holywell but he is very busy at the moment and will struggle to fit me in. So looking for some advice on good places to approach, obviously that aren't going to charge the earth! I already have the clutch kit and flywheel, just need them fitting

Thanks in advance

As for Brian, tell him Rob gave you his number, he will likely offer you a good rate mate. You'll be looking at £150 - £200 labour which I think is good for a Subaru Specialist

01254 689994

Hope this helps
Rob

PS - he has done loads of work to my car including a full engine strip down, rebuild and all the other upgrades such as GT30 Turbo, clutch etc inc remap by Andrew Carr whom works from the same garage. Im booked in for a clutch with him on Monday next week, which is for my convenience as my current clutch can no longer take the power
