Question Power2Go ... Ross-On-Wye

I had an email from a motorsport place in Ross which do a lot of services and enhancement work on scooby's. They seem pretty reasonable at £30 an hr labour at a max of 3hrs for a cambelt service .... prob looking at around £400 for my big 90k service !

Anyone been there ? If so, what are they like ?

I always use Powerstation who have recently moved to Tewkesbury, this is only about 50-60 min drive from Newport and they have a good reputation and I have found there prices to be very competitive. Have a look at there website below :

www.powerstation.org.uk

Thanks

Yep, bought my Legacy off one of the partners.... it was 'their car'....

Think the changed their name from Motorsport engineering to Msport... and now to Power2go....

if you search motorsport engineering on google it take you to their site.

My Leggy is still going and many of the receipts I have shows that they took VERY good care of it.....

Never had any work done there, but as you say Sam, they were good at one time......

I think Tim was the mechanic there ??

cheers
