Default Looking for mechanic recommendations Melbourne, Aus

Hi guys,

We picked up a 928 S4 recently and I’m hoping to get it serviced and tuned at a decent shop in Melbourne. Any recommendations? Hoping they could also suggest places to go for the x pipe mod etc. Just trying to get the most out of this machine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Because that’s where the car is located. I currently live and work in the UK, however, I am originally from Melbourne and that’s where my cars are kept. My family are in Melbourne, and I take the cars for a spin once a year when I’m back home.

So do you need a mechanic to come to your house and fix your 928?

Apologies if my original post was unclear. I’m just after a recommended mechanic in Melbourne who could service and tune the car. The car is running fine, however, looking for someone who specialises in the Porsche and would be comfortable with tuning it etc.
