Recommendations for a good Indy in West Sussex/Hampshire

Hi guys,

can anybody recommend a good Independent specialist who can look after/service my 3.2 i6 HSE?
I live near Chichester so anywhere within striking distance would be good.

thanks in advance for any help

I've heard good reviews about Chich 4x4 too......try Guy Salmon in Pompey perhaps? Just don't pay the book price for their servicing - haggle, haggle, haggle. They matched Rovertune's price for my first service Thumbs Up * GONE. GS TD4 Manual MY2013. Orkney Grey with privacy, cold and clearview packs, armrests (a must!) and a spoiler.

You've also got Brooklyn 4x4 in Southampton - reasonable labour rates

Flomar in Lewes were recommended to me by a friend and are good and honest if your other closer options don't work out. Whereabouts unknown stop going to follow stream until reach civilisation stop message ends

They're on the industrial estate bit down from Caffyns.

If you're at the mini roundabout at Tescos on left and Caffyns on right, continue straight to the end of that road and away from Tescos to the other mini roundabout. Flomar is opposite and slightly to the right of the mini roundabout.

So turn right at the mini, then a lefty U-Turn after the burger van (good stuff there), onto the unit forecourts and Flomar are at the end of that. You can see their sign from the mini roundabout nearest to them.

I think the guy's name is Martin and he knows his stuff and is a fair guy to deal with.
