Default Good independent shop in Kingston area?

I just sold my 911 to a fellow from the Kingston ON area. He’s asked if I know where he can get local service. Any suggestions for SE Ontario? Thanks

Madeley Automotive can do basic work and so can Audi / VW since they can get original parts & fluids. They're not qualified for some things, obviously. I'm also in Kingston. White Turbo S that gets driven at least a couple of days a week, so I'm around.

You didn't mention the age of the car.
I'm in/near Kingston and do most stuff myself, but in addition to Madely, Markus Blaszak in Inverary is a good potential source for service.

I've met Markus. I've heard his name before as well. He seemed like a pretty knowledgable guy.

Markus is mainly a 944 guy but has a good rep. If he does work on your car, he would be the guy

It's a 2011 C2. Normally ity shows in my signature. Not sure why there are no signatures in this thread.

They are all turned off for non paying members.
If you are a paying member that would be odd.

I was downtown but didn't take the 911TTS

Tell your friend to consider Universal Garage. Stephan's father (who started the business) was the head mechanic at Campbell's VW/Porsche in Kingston. Stephan can tune 356 carbs which elevates him in my books.
