Recommended specialist/garage in Suffolk area

Post by Autoshi »

Hello,

I have moved to Suffolk recently and got my 912 out of winter storage.
Can anybody recommend a good specialist/garage or two in Suffolk that deals with classic Porsches?

Thank you in advance!

Reason is the one Diss way I think

There’s another Stowmarket way - guy owns a Martini 911 Turbo - can’t think of his name but when I went there a few years ago they had a couple of 912

Thank you for the details guys!
I think Reason seems to be the closest to me but I'm not sure if they are used to dealing with classics (will find out).

I will look into all suggested here, thank you!!
