Ben C3.o Posted 7April, 2013 Report Share Posted 7April, 2013 Hi all, Looking at purchasing my first Porsche. For those who live in my neck of the woods who do you recommend/allow to work on your car? Anyone local or am I looking at spending some time in Sydney. Cheers Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Posted 7April, 2013 Report Share Posted 7April, 2013 Very good question. I do everything myself but it would be nice to know if I could farm the odd job out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJames Posted 7April, 2013 Report Share Posted 7April, 2013 Call Simon at Autowerks in Charmhaven on 4393 5111. Not acshly Newcastle, but closer than Sydney! (And tell him I say hello.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM911 Posted 7April, 2013 Report Share Posted 7April, 2013 Ben, I would (acshly) recommend Autohaus in Sydney. I know it's not Newie, but it's worth the extra effort to have guys who 'get' these cars to do the work on it. I used to take my Carrera 2.7 up there for (from Canberra) major services, and was always happy with the service and support. It was also never a problem to call the guys and ask questions afterwards. You won't regret the extra effort. Your car will thank you for it. Scotty (ps. JustJames didn't put me up for this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben C3.o Posted 10April, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 10April, 2013 Thank you for the feedback guys. I spoke to Scott yesterday at Autohaus and he also recommended Simon from Autowrecks if I wasn't up for the hall to Sydney. I then spoke to Simon from Autowrecks today and he speaks highly of the guys at Autohaus. It's nice to see the mutual respect they hold for each other.

BR996tt Posted 25April, 2013 Report Share Posted 25April, 2013 Here's a recommendation I found on the Pelican parts forum: "if you live anywhere near the central coast you cant go past Simon Greenwood at Autowerks in Charmhaven" the link is: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/new-zealand-australia/577466-recommended-good-porsche-mechanic-sydney.html I used Simon's services in February this year when I was driving my 996 through NSW on a holiday. I had a coolant leak issue. He really looked after me, so I'm also very happy to recommend Simon. Cheers, Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
