My 997 GTS is due its 6 year service in March and it's under warranty so I'll be going to an OPC. I'm looking at Silverstone and Reading and wondered if anyone has had any experience of either of them?
There are pro's and cons with each:
Reading: My car was supplied by Reading and has always been serviced there, and I have all invoices including the original sales invoice when new - so the OCD in me thinks it would be nice to have all the same stamps / invoices. BUT Reading does not subscribe to the fixed / reduced pricing and it's over £300 dearer.
Silverstone - A vague plus is that it's a far more enjoyable run there and back. Sadly though, I've just read on a FB page that Silverstone's service dept leaves a lot to be desired which has worried me (they didn't go into detail). AND Silverstone is a Sytner dealership and I'm loathe to give Sytner any more money (having experienced their terrible BMW service for many years).
Anyone's views would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :thumb:
