Default Alfa romeo workshops in eastern europe?

Hello,
I just received word from my workshop here in Norway that my Alfa 156
SW needs a new servco pump and a new exchaust pipe - setting me back
roughly 30 000 norwegian, or somewhere around 5000 dollars.

I've heard of people taking their cars to workshops in central/eastern
europe instead, where prices on both parts and labour are much lower
than up here.

Have anybody any experience with a good (preferably english-speaking)
shop in eastern europe that I could call and compare the prices with?

best regards,
Trond Hindenes
Norway

Hi Trond

I cannot help you personally - I work on classic Alfa cars only, so even
don't have some of the solutions needed for modern models. I have a friedn
however who works on modern ones. If you would like to visit Poland, you are
welcomed to

Sure it will be cheaper - we used to repair servo pumps here - most of the
cases is only a matter of seals. Exhoust should be replaced however I think
(dependently what is wrong). If you want to talk personally about prices
visit www.arkuszowa2a.prv.pl or call Jacek on his mobile +48502277790. I can
personally recommend the workshop - small but professional, not official
Alfa service, but cheaper, faster and better. If you would be affraid, I can
be recommended by Alfa Club in Norway - we know each other.

I didn't know that this kind of work is that expensive in your country. That
price I ask for bodywork and paint on classic Alfa

If you would call Jacek, tell him that you got the contact from Szymon @ RS
Classic Cars - you will get better price and he will be not surprised that
much of a foreign customer call.

Regards
Szymon

Why not check out Alfa specialists in Aberdeen, Alfa Romeos are popular
in Scotland and they speak a version of English!!
