Looking for printer of quality flyers

I'm looking to get some flyers printed, about 21cm x 10cm (is that A6?).

Can anyone recommend a printer in the UK who does a good job? I'd probably go for about 2,000. I had a bad experience with a printer a few years ago so the thoughts of Moneysavers would be appreciated.
Jon.

    Delivery of such a short run as 2,000 makes it generally more economic to source this locally. They'll probably be printed at least 4-up so it's only a 500 run. Visit a couple of independent print shops locally and ask to see some samples.
    9 times out of 10 the reason print jobs come out badly is because the files are not correctly created or supplied. Create proper hi-res CMYK PDF's to the printer's specs and all should be fine.
    A6 is 148mm x 105mm (print specs are quoted in mm,, not cm), so you're working with a non-standard size there, more like a cut-down A5.
