Default I need a good garage in the andover area

As above guys, had my 54 plate sti a week now. Its just past due for its 66k big service, so will need it doing along with a cambelt. Does it need belt or belt plus kit ? And will need a few more jobs in time. Just wondering if there are any places you can recomend ? Dont mind a 30-40 min drive as that will allow bassingstoke and southampton aswell !!!! Hope you can help ?
