Hunter Motorsports is in the West end, and highly regarded. I would highly recommend Hunter.

Tough to get an appointment there. I've been unsuccessful 3 for 3.

I have had my 69 911 serviced by both (although Hunter more recently, and Beese still servicing my VW's).
Brent has fewer personnel (at the moment), so one may need to make a booking 1 or so weeks out (his work is excellent and he knows Porsches - he rebuilt my engine + other repairs).
Andy has more personnel and his schedule is more flexible. (not sure the level of Porsche specific knowledge and experience each of his team has, but they have done some minor engine and major suspension work on my 911 in the past, but never IMS) and they currently still do most of my VW work. Overall work through Andy is great, but if I had the choice and time was not a critical consideration, I would go through Brent

Hunter would be preferred but always seems to be swamped. Bero is a walk from home so wondering about their experience. Used to see some air cooled there but mostly Audi and he had 2 Westfalias air cooled there .

Thanks for this.

I've taken my car to Mantis, but it's a bit of a hike for me. Hunter would have been perfect, but knowing Bero has done some Pcar work and is much more closer to me, this seems like a no-brainer! My interactions with Hunter have been positive, but just very difficult to get a booking, often getting turned away.
