Re: Porsche Swindon or Porsche Reading

You would be better off, both financially and for customer service, by going to Ray Northway an independent Porsche specialist (www.northway.co.uk) based a few miles from Porsche Reading. You will also see lots of used Porsches for sale as well as other customers rare models.

Re: Independent garages or not?

Ray Northway for me now - far better service (they answer the phone for a start and will even see your car the same day if there is a problem / something to check out) and obviously a lot cheaper than Reading Porsche (not happy with their service department at all - never ring you back and quote rid...

Obsessed Car Detailing
