Default Subaru specialist in Glasgow

Can anyone recommend a good specialist in or around the Glasgow area?

My blob eye wrx is due it's 60k service in the next fortnight. And I want it going somewhere that know what they're doing.

Cheers, Shaun.

Greersport in Beith. Just outside Glasgow but they built my engine and are a fantastic bunch of guys who specialise in Scoobies and their rates are VERY good!

Kenny Brown also have a very good reputation. I've used them for service/timing belt change only, but certainly know their stuff. (Their bread and butter is motorsports prep)

Hello mate, just wondering if they are cheaper than Hypertech, as I do find their rates very expensive?

I have not used Hypertech so can't compare.

There is always one person thats had a bad experience from every garage.

I have used them for the passed 2 years. They serviced my Blobeye STi and completed a forge rebuild of my Hawkeye STi earlier this year.

I have visited them many times during the passed 2 years and they have solved any issues I have had and have been very helpful during and after my rebuild.

I can't thank them enough.

Used Grier before, good service,if a little slow, seemed to give the cosmetic jobs i had done to the apprentice and he messed it up a bit but it all got sorted, would use them again as they know their stuff.

Also heard good things about the Brown Chap.

Duncan at Hypertech is also got a good ref, FFS dont go to one in Motherwell( cant remember name)

IMO
