I need to get my 993 C4S serviced for the first time having bought it a year ago.


Asked at Tonbridge OPC and thought it a bit pricey. Having seen the favourable comments about Porsche specialists would like to try one of them.


Who can you recommend in Kent / east sussex?

The previous owner of my 993 had it done by La Rose. They did a good job...

What about Parr? They seem to have a good reputation. Sussex-located, I think.

Similar service from LA Rose has been quoted at £370 +vat

I wouldn't take my car anywhere near Tonbridge again - they refunded me £250 in the end after such crap service.

I use Parr for alignment and Bourne Performance in sittingbourne for everyting else. BP did plugs and fuel filter on my 993TT the other week for £150 labour. Extremely thorough for servicing. 01795 437111

Don't get caught up in service book snobbery - get the work done properly and thoroughly.

I too have realised my mistake using OPC Tonbridge, only really because of the cost.

I asked for an annual service only and asked for PCGB discount (which they offer supposedly), but stupidly didn't actually ask for the price. The bill was £570 which I think is way too high for just the minimal annual service.

I have had the misfortune of my cars clutch going on me whilst in your neck of the woods. Paragon went and picked the car up and are currently working on it. I am getting constant feedback from them as to what is happening and feel very at ease with my car in their hands. Spoke to Mick on the phone, very pleasant chap so may be worth giving them a ring to see what their prices are like.
