Unhappy Another one bites the dust

Just heard today that Milton Keynes Subaru are to close in a couple of weeks.

Real sad...

They were a great bunch with great service.

Time to chop in my Scoob me thinks !! as the nearest garage to MK is Aylesbury or Baldock now ..

Maybe I have just got used to the fact that they would pick the car up get it serviced & valeted and return it.
Used to be able to do this at Oakley until they closed.

Will checkout Adams in Aylesbury...

Yes ...

It was set as an offshoot of the Coltswolds Subaru. They decided to close due to the lack of new/used car sales however the servicing side of the business was doing very well .
