I\'m new, please help

Hi Guys,
Im new to this forum and will probably join the club.
Pleasure to meet anyone who introduces them selves.

I'm from Warrington, near Manchester. I'm looking for a good mechanic / workshop to provide service / repairs. Can anyone point me in the direction of quality service at reasonable prices? I need someone to help me fix my sick 996.
I've heard Tec Moto are excellent but are a bit far being in Essex! I'can't believe they are my only option (other than main dealer).

Any advice is well appreciated.
Cheers,

Ste

P.S. Also looking for fellow rideoutees.

Cornerspeed in Nottingham and JHP in Coventry are probably your best bets, I'm sure someone will be along in a minute with details of someone closer

Welcome, if it helps I rode to Nelly @ Cornerspeed on Sat for him to play with my 996 - it was a 320 mile round trip but definitely worth it.

If you can't ride it to get it down to him he *may* be able to pick it up from you (costs extra obviously) so just give him a ring.

Aw, thanks guys.
Feel like a settled in member now!

Sent Cornerspeed email saying you all love them. Hope they will be nice to me too.

Thanks for your help.
I also could do with some standard pipe work (not cans) for said 996.
Any offers?
