TRD (Turner Race Developments) in Stroud.

Very honest, enthusiastic and knowledgeable on all high end + VAG cars.
They have been looking after my GTI for the last couple of years.

Have used Vee W services in Bedminster for the last couple of years with very good results on general servicing, mot's, dsg service etc. I think a good sign is that I've only ever seen VW and Audi cars being worked on there.

Another vote for Vee W services in bristol.

I had my GTI in there a few months back.  Very professional and friendly.  The only down fall with them is you cannot book in a time and have to leave it with them all day until they ring you for collection.

City centre is only about 10 mins walk away though so lot's to keep you occupied...:)

Not got any I've used myself, but Vee W Services are who I'll be using soon after various reviews I've read
