Porsche specialist offers Bicester Village shopping experience

Independent Porsche specialist Autofarm is making the task of having your Porsche serviced more attractive, thanks to a complimentary travel service to and from luxury retail outlet Bicester Village. Rather than waiting at the garage just four miles away, Autofarm will arrange for its customers to be taken to and from Bicester Village to enjoy the shopping and restaurants available.

“We have increasing numbers of owners of Caymans, Boxsters, Cayennes and the latest 997 seeking cost-effective servicing,” says Robin Bartholomew, Autofarm’s workshop manager. “Our offer will help customers make the most of their time while their car is being cared for.” Autofarm suggests a basic 12k or 20k service takes approximately four hours, allowing plenty of time to visit the 130 boutiques that include Armani, DKNY, Jack Wills, Paul Smith and The North Face. Barthlomew believes the facility will be appealing to the growing number of female Porsche owners and parents looking after children during the day. “Getting the car serviced often falls to the lady of the house. Children understandably get bored waiting, but this provides an opportunity to go somewhere suitable, rather than trapped in a car showroom or workshop waiting room,” adds Bartholomew. In addition to Bicester Village, Autofarm will also arrange for customers to be dropped and collected from one of Bicester’s train stations. “You can be in London in around an hour,” suggests Bartholomew.

With over 35 years’ Porsche experience, Autofarm has the extensive knowledge to service and care for the entire range stretching from early 911s to today’s cars. “We have the latest Porsche diagnostics equipment backed up with dedicated engine, body, sales, parts and service areas,” adds Bartholomew. “We take care of all aspects of Porsche ownership and now, servicing could even be something to look forward to.”
