Cridfords - any experience? Or alternative recommendations?

Hi all,

I'm in the market to buy a Porsche. Just wondering what dealings members here have had - in terms of buying their Porsche - with Cridfords in Surrey?

I did a search on the forum but it only seemed to turn up very old results, long enough ago for a poor specialist to get its' act together, and vice versa.

I'm familiar with PCT, RPM and 911Virgin to an extent - PCT were recommended by a colleague who has used them for years (and handily they're the nearest to me, I've been there a few times and they seem a good bunch) Are there other specialists who people really rate who I should be looking at regularly?

Many thanks!
 
Cridfords come up as OK and the ones you've mentioned are good. Others include Paragon, JZM, Parr, Strasse where many will offer a warranty but you'll pay top dollar as some dealers reject cars that dont come up to scratch - JZM, Paragon, 911v being some. If you want peace of mind there's a price to pay in some cases.

Of course it doesn't exclude you from also paying for a PPI from the Indy you're going to use for your servicing etc. or excluding cars that come up for sale from active members on this forum :thumb:
 
Depends if you are willing to travel.

Cameron Sports Cars nr Bath seem to get good reviews.

Dove House.

Northway.

And of course our own Mark Pearce at Stirlings, although his stock is generally newer than I read you are after. Might be worth a shout though.
 
I've heard/read good and bad about Cridfords but one of my friends swears by them. I recently bought my first Porsche from Roly at eporsch and don't have any complaints at all. He doesn't have a flash showroom or a sharp suit but he's a very down to earth, straightforward kind of bloke
 
Northway near reading

Ray is a top bloke
 
Re Cridfords friend uses them a lot and would highly recommend, they seem to have a good honest rep :thumb:
 
:) Can recommend Dovehouse - have bought two Porsche's from them. Their warranty's are very good. Very likeable chaps.
 
I use RSJ in Slough, cars are nicely prepared with a good warranty.

No complaints at all from me since buying three years ago, they have looked after my car and I very well indeed :thumb:
