There aren't any in Ipswich that I would trust!  I live there and drive up to Stealth Racing in Southam, or do the work myself  :smiley:

A little late to the table, but I've used an outfit in Colchester if its any help to you guys. They did my cam chain & tensioner, cam belt and my last full service. I was very impressed with the service I got and the pricing isn't so bad either!

They're a VW/AUDI specialist and always have some nice metal on the ramps!

http://apicarrepair.co.uk/ - not the greatest site, but all the lads are very clued up!

Hope this helps,
Faz

Good to know for the future.  5 min drive from where I work too, bonus!

I've had dealings with them in the past, but wouldn't go there again.  They did an engine conversion for me years ago and for what I paid, the workmanship wasn't great.  Could have done better myself, but didn't have the luxury of a garage at the time.

I'd take the place in Colchester linked above over them tbh.
