Morning chaps.

I've recently bought myself a Cayman R. It's under warranty until March 2017 so I obviously plan on sticking to main dealer servicing for the stamps and to keep this warranty.

Now I have a question about the warranty and servicing.

It'll be every 2 years for me, as I wont get anywhere near the miles. But I'm planning on getting the oil changed every year in between this. I'm planning on finding a recommended specialist near to me (Croydon) for this.

Is this going to cause me problems? I would obviously keep the invoices but wouldn't get them to stamp the service book, in the hope that Porsche would never need to know. And my warranty would still be valid.

Also, can anyone recommend me a good specialist near to me? I've not done my searches yet, I thought I would ask for recommendations from personal experiences first.

Cheers
 
9E in Horley would be your closest - just a quick trip down the A23.

Have you used them before mate?

I'm keen to find somewhere from a personal recommendation. I've found from other marques that just because someone is a 'specialist' doesn't mean they're actually any good..

Chris @ Brooklands Kent has just done some work on my 986 & I'd recommend them. As for the Canterbury one if it is who I think it is, then NO way.
 
9E (Nine Excellence) in Horley. They have done work on all of my cars. Highly recommended :thumb:
 
Weston Porsche

Warren over at Weston Porsche in Beckenham is very good. Lovely fella and a genuine car enthusiast.
 
OP,

Any reason for not using an OPC for bi-annual oil changes ? You'll end up with lots of OPC stamps in your service book :thumb: . That would look good come re-sale time.......
