Regal Autosports in Southampton should be able to sort that out for you.
www.regal-auto.co.uk
They do a lot of vauxhall stuff, which is how found them originally, but they are into scoobies too.

Really??? I always had top notch service on my Cav Turbo. That was several years ago though. I used to drive from Nottingham all the way down there. They made my Cav a reliable 380bhp beastie.
I dont know anything about them in recent years as ive been living in America for 2 years.

Regal? No chance. If my pushbike had a puncture I wouldn't take it there.
I am afraid that the Southampton area is not too clever for scoobs.
A couple of us are fortunate enough to know a couple of Subaru mechanics.

Chizz,

Give William Street Services a call and speak to Steve.

They are excellent. They used to look after my Escort Cossie, 95 WRX import. Got a STi7 now so its under warranty so I don't use them with my current car. Although they will be fitting my gauges for me.

Chizz.
I will have a word but you may have to wait 3 or 4 weeks before they can fit you in.

Paul.
