Default p.p.i. toronto
Does anyone know a mechanic who will do a p.p.i. on site in downtown Toronto. There is a targa at"Gentry Lane" motors I'm sweet on. He wants to much for it [ very Canadian ] and I need to pick it apart.
Thanks ,Bill

Downtown won't do it off site.

if they won't let ppi done at another shop there is probably something wrong. run don't walk...away that is. unless they are offering full warranty and guarantee no accidents in writing.

Yeah, it's highly suspicious. A total deal-breaker.

Default Inspection
Those guys may have had a bad experience in the past. If you really need a guy to inspect it, you can call Bestline Auto Tech @ 905-482-3955. They can bring a wrench over to inspect it.

I bought my '98 C4S from MVL Leasing on the Queensway in mid November of last year. It is my first Porsche and I just love it. It seemed that nobody in North America could touch their pricing and I spent many months looking. They had no problem in me taking my car to Hunter Motorsports in Mississauga for my PPI. As far as I am concerned Brent is da man at Hunter Motorsports - 30 years experience, always courteous and friendly, excellent pricing.... need I say more? He will have my business for life! Here are just a few of my thoughts and experiences for what they might be worth. Best of luck in your search. Glenn
