He won't sell you stuff you don't need or talk you into spending more.

I second this comment. I spoke to Alyn about replacing the worn out front discs and pads on my '00 WRX. He actually talked me out of spending on Brembo's, AP's etc and suggested new grooved discs and DS2500 pads for the front and some OE+ pads for the rears. What a refreshing attitude, he could of sold me hundreds of quids worth of kit I didn't need. I changed the car before I needed the work doing, so I can't comment on how good the kit is, but I think his advice was pretty good.
