Probably Well Lane Turbo Centre in Bradford. There is one near York but not very good.

Depending on what you want done I would strongly recommend Scoobyclinic with Pat at the helm. There is nothing he does not know about setting a car up on the rollers. Clinic is around an hour from York down the M1 to Chesterfield.

Another thumbs up for Pat at Scoobyclinic....genius

I don't like bad mouthing companies but Well Lane once had a go at one of my 205 GTi's, ran it in 5th gear till it came off the clock. When it eventually stopped it had a loud knocking noise. I was told it was just my tappets that were a little loud and nothing to worry about (nothing to do with you thrashing it to an inch of its life then?) turned out to be the big end. Strangely they didn't want to know anything about it.
I would recommend staying clear, but thats only my experience and opinion.

It also depends what you need sorting on the car - Pat is often in this area (York) fiddling with cars.
