Took my car in today to get my clock light fixed and passenger window fixed, got it back perfect and very happy with the work they did! Great easy location near the train station and well priced !!

Mario is straightforward and honest. Workmanship and professionalism is one of the best I’ve experienced. My golf is doing much better now. I think I will stick with these fellas.
Diju Davis
A excellent workshop. Very popular, so always be patient and you will always be rewarded with great quality workmanship. They team there are very passionate and concerned with your impressions and opinions of their work. Good communication and follow up support. Transparent prices and very accurate on time frames. Never had any problems with these guys, been a customer for 3 years now (2018). Highly recommended.

Kaleel and the team did amazing work on both my BMW as well as Volkswagen.
I recently took both my cars into BMW and Volkswagen and they were not able to resolve the issue, so after reading all the reviews i thought i would give the company a shot. I do not regret it one bit, they were able to diagnose and fix the issue within no time and a very costly manner.
The attention to detail that gets put into the car is outstanding, did they not only fix the issue but they also warned me about future issues that could happen and recommended me to get the things changed so it wont cause any other dramas.
Will not go to any other mechanic.
Thank you very much to the company.

Highly recommend Mario & George @ the company… Honestly the best in Canberra… Very honest, reliable & very professional… Its very hard to find a good mechanic that genuinely wants to help you without ripping you off… but I can honestly say I have found my new mechanic… Very pleased with the service I received and the prices are unbeatable… Thank You Mario & George…

The company provides best service for performance tuning for your car as well as regular services to keep your baby for the best condition!
Kay Lee
Came for a service Monday morning and a couple of issues found which where sorted that day. Picked up the car late afternoon and driving better than ever. Really impressed with the work and service provided by Vince and his team. Would recommend.
Sam Taylor
So happy time and time again with the work you do on my car. You are so genuine, knowledgeable and super talented at what you do. Thankyou a million.
Rachel Zahra
Awesome customer service, just serviced my new car. Will definitely be back!
michael ladanyi
Very honest mechanic! I was quoted $1000 from Holden dealer and only $421.85 from the company. Very fast service and knowledgeable!
Daniel Wood
I rang the company because my Golf was leaking coolant badly. Mario told me to bring it in, and diagnosed that the water pump had failed. He told me that I needed to leave my car with him, and immediately ordered a new pump. Because he was so heavily booked up, he came in at 5am on a Monday morning (!!) to install a new pump so that I could have the car back that day. In the process, he discovered that my front brakes needed replacing and did that as well. His prices are reasonable, and he’s a decent honest guy. What more could you want?
Peter Wise
Would trust no-one else for my car. Fantastic team who can either fix a problem, provide a phenomenal service for your car or even enhance your cars performance. Would highly recommend the ECU tune if it will work well for your car. Really happy with them discussing what they believed would help and then installing the parts. Couldn’t be happier. A++++
Nash Anderson
Have contacted the company about conducting work on my car, needless to say the service has been sub-par. Messaged the establishment only to get short responses then when confronted about a more than lack luster response and action plan. I was promised a reply to which i still have not had one.Would not recommend this business to anyone and has left a sour taste in my mouth considering i expressed how urgent the vehicles condition was! Utterly disappointing which means my urgency has been pushed back by over a month and a half now.

Great customer service, informative, extremely helpful, and very honest. Highly recommend.
George Rusic
Great place to get your car serviced, 100% good quality and professional ???
Brian Freeman
Always helpful responsive reliable and honest. Support this small business and you wont go wrong.
Martin Waters
Fantastic and prompt service everytime! Wouldn’t go anywhere else. The company is the best man for it. ?
Shannen Hiern
Seen a lot of work from heaps of mechanics and can genuinely say there’s no one like the company.
Had the best experience with the work done on my car, very friendly and awesome customer service.
Very high recommendation to anyone seeking a trustworthy and honest mechanic.
Rimon Moussa
I have to admit that I’ve had some very good mechanics in the past from owning Japanese to VAG performance cars. However, recently stepping into a ‘prestigious’ branded car I was expecting such claims from skyrocket service costs and sub par service that comes from going to dealerships. I had to find that special workshop again, and one who specialises in European cars. It had to be one that I could trust my BMW is being left in good hands. After an extensive research on the Googs, I came across the company and I can definitely say that I’ve found that special workshop and mechanic. Customer experience is what I specialise in and Kaleel has provided that in spades. Definitely recommended and I will be back for my next service.
Dave Nguyen
Took my Volvo in to get some work done, car was under dealer warranty but took it in to Mitchell auto to have the job done properly based on good reviews, the work should’ve taken a week max as discussed, two weeks later and my oil and filter change not done, power steering leak which he said was fixed was not fixed, over charged for two front shocks based on original quote, countless phone calls to him asking why it was taking so long, got a call at 10 mins before closing to pick up my car, went the next day to pick up, said cars not ready yet ??. Told me about his apprentice lying to him about work supposedly which was done to my car (wanted the job done properly, not by an apprentice), another spill about his mechanics wife in hospital etc etc. 2 grand later and not happy. Angas seemed disinterested in working on my Volvo and his communication with me was poor. Numerous other things which were in my initial quote were not done. This is my honest experience with Mitchell Auto. I would have gone back to rectify the incomplete works but didn’t want to have my car off the road for another two weeks and personally I feel if the job couldnt be done properly then it’s in my best interest to go elsewhere. I felt disappointed and let down. This is my honest and personal experience with Mitchell auto.
Greg Phi
Took My e92 335i in with a missfiring issue, came back like a new car. They diagnosed and fixed the problem without costing me a fortune! Couldn’t be happier with the result! Thanks Gareth and the team at the company!
Peter Carbzy
These guys are awesome – we were visiting Canberra for the weekend when our F150 broke down, these guys dropped everything and had it back on the road quickly. Excellent service, modern clean workshop can’t recommend the company enough!
Troy Lubben
I recently started working in Fyshwick and my van was overdue for a service so I performed my due diligence and after reading positive reviews I booked the van in with Mario.
Before he commenced the service he rang me with what needed to be done and quoted me a price.
I found him to be thorough and he provided good old fashioned customer service.
A very positive experience.
Joe Williamson.
joe williamson
Great service from the team at abbott rd will recommend them to others
Renee Richardson
Ian has been our mechanic for 6 years, would not go anywhere else!
Michelle Benton
My daily driver is a 1966 GT Mustang Coupe – not exactly modern technology – its had a multitude of issues over the past 8 years – whether its mechanical, electrical or trim/body work – nothing was a issue, all taken care of in professional manner. These guys hold a high degree of trust in my eyes and I have no hesitation in recommending them. My family have all enjoyed the same service for their Mercedes Range Rovers.
Jack Michael
Great service and Quality workmanship, Marno & George are great blokes, honest and reliable work
Paul John
Fully agree with the other positive reviews. Marios is exceptionally helpful with honest advice and pricing. Ill be back for sure.
Brian
Exceptional service from an excellent team. Always willing to go above and beyond! Marno and George have looked after two of my BMWs over the years like their own. I couldnt recommend a more knowledgeable, reliable and trustworthy bunch of guys!! Highly Recommended.
Matt Ferreira
The Company is a brilliant mechanic who always provides top service. It has taken 4 years of owning my car to finally find a trustworthy mechanic. Its well worth the 35 minute drive to get my car serviced! Top job!
Amy Lauren
Great service. Provided clear description on all services. Always reliable.
Ham Uppal
Ive been taking my Maserati granturismo to Kaleel and team at the company for quite sometime now. The companie team’s knowledge and service is 110% all the time, and I am a very fussy car owner. No matter what I throw at them they always deliver and more. Recently I had it tuned recently with APR, a week later i had an issue with the tuning. I took it to the company and they identified the issue and fixed it at a fraction for an affordable price, and since then i haven’t had the same issue re-occur. I highly recommend the company to everyone who wants service and quality every time
chris panagiotou
One stop workshop for all the car stuff. Excellent customer service by harvey and his team. Highly recommend
Amandeep Mehta
Great service and communication. Price is very competitive. Highly recommend
Sam Inc
Outstanding, they went above and beyond with our car that needed a lot of work. They kept us informed the whole journey, made sure that only what was needed to be done was done. Even though they uncovered a raft of other problems that were hidden by the original problem, the final costs were barely more than the original estimate. The car runs 100% better, and will give us much more satisfaction than we could have expected. Recommend these folk to anyone with a Euro car.
Chris N Jay Pozzi
Unusually honest service for mechanics. Well done. I will be returning, you should too.
Daniel Tempra
Mario and the team were excellent! I’ve never been to a mechanic that is more honest about what needs to be done and considerate of your personal circumstances. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE GUYS!
Jaz Marton
Awesome Service! Audi drives great and it was a great price! Would easily recommend!
Frank
The staff are patient and the service has been done quickly and nicely. I will recommend to my friends. European car expert!
Yingying Shen
Vince provided a great overall service,. He and his business were able to accommodate my urgency for a repair, were price competitive, and did the work thoroughly.
Matthew B
Fantastic and prompt service everytime! Wouldn’t go anywhere else. The company is the best man for it. ?
Shannen Hiern
Amazing! Recomended to go here by a friend . I took my car in for a minor service plus an issue with my sunroof. They were so friendly and probably the best customer service I’ve received in a LONG time ! Sunroof fixed and service done and they actually kept me in the loop without me having to call them!! Definitely recommend using the company ! Thank you so much guys, definitely coming back for all my services!
Susan Gulyas
Did a major service on a MK6 Golf R, service and workmanship was impeccable. Staff where very friendly and kept me informed during the process.
Edward Benjamin
Amazing service and great communication. Strongly recommend. Thanks Harvey
Amateur
They do a great job and very reasonably priced. If you have a European car, especially a Saab don’t even think of taking it to a dealer.
Dylan Bell
The company the only place that looks after my Golf R. From servicing to maintenance, to quick fixes to almost anything required. If your looking for a very reliable workshop, who have realistic work times on jobs, this is the place to go. I recommend the company to anyone who asks anything Euro Car related. 5 * for you Simon and your Team.
Mo Khan
Mario is super friendly and knowledgeable. The work that he did on my car was excellent and the price was right!
Erin Taubman
Ian has become my go to mechanic and one that I’ve come to trust and prefer over any other mechanic I’ve been to. Always honest about issues and will almost always have a solution at a cost friendly price. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Nic Brown
Reece is fantastic and really knowledgeable (and a nice guy too!!) Have always had VW’s and always get a great result. Thnx for cleaning my car today as well guys… I did notice!!

Great service , they service all my European cars .
Very affordable compared to the agents .
BRIAN FREEMAN
George is a really trustworthy specialist, who knows his stuff and can always provide good advice. Highly recommended for anyone who doesn’t want to get ripped off by the dealerships. Make sure you book ahead, because his schedule and parking are usually quite full.
Mike Gouline
Very friendly knowledgeable staff
Feel safe in leaving car in there care
David Young
Purchased their combox retrofit kit for my pre-combox E90 so I could gain wireless Bluetooth audio streaming. Purchased the kit, arrived super fast, scheduled a session, followed the instructions beforehand, and a dream turned in to reality. Their services make my drives more enjoyable and Ill be forever grateful. No more wires! Highly recommend.

Gareth and Reece are your go-to guys for your Euro. No BS and realistic pricing. Recommend A++
Scott Sparkman
Adrian is giving my 78 Silver Lady some love as she heads for her 40th Bday
Brent Scurry
Genuine price for best quality workmanship and excellent customer service. Highly recommend the company for all types of works on your cars.
Parmjit Chohan
After hearing about the company through word of mouth and a quick read through their other positive reviews I felt confident taking my car to them for my M30 rebuild.
As a young guy with not a lot of money and an expensive passion for old BMWs Kaleel understood this and helped me out immensely on the cost while still providing a top quality build.
Dont be fooled by the new, rare and expensive cars in the photos and think you can’t take your old euro to them. The team at the company will put in just as much time and passion into your old euro like they did with my E34.
Cheers guys!
Cameron Family
I called the company and went and got my car fixed. Now, my VW Golf is running great after I drove it into something. Theres always some nice vintage cars at the back of the workshop when Ive been in which are worth a look. Thanks.
Henry Trumble
Ian kept my old car running, and has serviced my new car since new. Always reliable, a good mechanic.
Rhonda Murray
I have received excellent service from this company who have kept my elderly car in good order without ripping me off. I have been treated respectfully despite being female (not always the case, some garages think female clients are stupid!) I always recommend them to anyone requiring good workmanship and reasonable prices. I am a regular customer.
Carole Lynch
Gareth and his team provide the highest level of work with great customer service.
Craig Woolham
Mario is a very friendly owner and I was very satisfied with the service.
Cneyt zkan
The very best, looked after 3 of my cars over the years, in addition to my entire familys. Could not recommend the boys higher. ?
Azuma Sullivan Bennett
Always top service, knowledge and prices. Simon and his team have been nothing but a pleasure to deal with. Have always taken my mk7 R to them and will continue to do so. Keep up the great work!
Andy Bamford
Very honest mechanics.

Queenie Phan
Quality and fast service, very well priced and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend.
Brad Y
The Company examined my Van before doing the Big Lap of Australia he did the servicing that was necessary. Timing belt, Water pump, Full Service. He was reasonable with his pricing and did the work required. 5 star for Service
I have mentioned his business on my website:
Rod Sutton
Had an issue with loss of power during hard acceleration with my Golf GTI. Within minutes of bringing my car into the workshop, The companies team hooked up the computer and found the issue with the no.2 cylinder misfiring. He replaced the coilpack within minutes and I was on my way. So glad the issue was identified correctly and resolved so painlessly by this experienced team.
mark haddad
Mario is a fantastic mechanic. Very trustworthy and easy to deal with. Highly recommend for anyone in Canberra or the surrounding area.
Luke Gensler
I originally went to Kaleel when he was in Brunswick and the service was always exemplary. Once the company moved to Reservoir it was perfect timing as the company i work for was looking for a trusted and reliable business to undertake our fleet servicing, so far we have thrown Kaleel and the team a few curve balls and tight deadlines and he has knocked them out of the park and saved us a tonne of money!
I cannot recommend Kaleel and the team highly enough!
Taylor Quinn
Excellent service and professionalism from Kaleel and team , highly recommended.
It feels like my car went in for a full massage and received a happy ending! Drives better than ever.
zane isles
Neil and Clayton from the company are awesome. If youve been, burned, misinformed, ripped off or let down by other mechanics. You really need to speak to these guys. Neils no BS attitude and integrity are the cherries on top of his chocolate cake of knowledge and expertise in motor mechanics.
Whether its a bits are missing Mitsubishi Mirage or a high end European luxury vehicle… Contact the company. I highly recommend these guys
Darren Hart
Amazing and honest service at a great price, cannot speak highly enough about the company and their 10/10 service, i would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone.
Peter i
Marno at the company has serviced my BMW Touring and my husbands BMW M3 for many many years. We met Marno originally as top mechanic at BMW itself. Weve followed him ever since. Excellent services without the BMW service centre outrageous price!
Victoria Milton
Amazing and honest service at a great price, cannot speak highly enough about the company and their 10/10 service, i would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone.
Peter Ienari
Expensive for quility of service.
They don’t know when the job will be done.
I dont recommend this place.
Munseong Lee
Super friendly & professional team. Done all the work for my stage 4 golfR. Couldnt be happier with the job and their service.
Justin Yu
These guys look after my BMW 135i hatch, they have tuned it & provided sound knowledge on appropriate mods to suit my desired performance goals, they have always gone above & beyond, so when i purchased my 2016 Renault Sport Megane recenlty , they very helpful with pre purchase inspection. Thanks to the team at the company for your honesty & integrity.
Scott P
Amazingly easy coding of Sirius XM for my X1 for about $200 less than the dealer, everything works as the reviews say, just download the files and set an appointment. I did mine at 0900 on a Saturday, and was listening to my radio by 0915. Make sure to have admin privilege on your Laptop, works like a charm.
David Barnes
Highly recommend the company. The companies team looked after my 80,000km service and was extremely happy. I was continuously updated with the status of my service and was always asked before before going ahead with any repair. Also loved getting my car back sparking clean.
tim o’brien
Took my e46 in for the first time for a minor service, and to have a look at a very annoying noise coming from the back end, that two other mechanics could not work out what it was, not only was his pricing reasonable, he went above and beyond to check everything that could be causing this noise and eventually determined it was as simple and replacing my rear tyres, problem solved! Extremely helpful and honest. My car will be going back for all future services/repairs.
Nevin Veenhof
Spent a bunch of time reviewing shops in Canberra, was strongly recommended the company *and* APR.
Gareth and Reece have gone above and beyond with brand new day old software, testing and revisions to get an amazing result out of my car. Highly recommend these guys – they care about their customers cars like they were their own. Fantastic Service and great people to boot!
Geoff Killen
Biggest nightmare on a public holiday? A flat tyre on a freeway. Biggest life saver?. Every single company wanted to charge me extra to come out, and just my luck, Harve was passing by and stopped after seeing me on the side of the road. Not only did he help fix the puncture and fill up the tyre pressure, but he didn’t charge!!! I couldn’t believe it. I can’t thank you enough! I’ll be sending everyone to you guys
Shaveen Grewal
Excellent knowledge, skill and customer service. Good prices too. Highly recommend!
Ed Mitchell
Mario is awesome! Reliable, honest and fair. My wife and I both highly recommend him.
Brian Corr
Mario is super friendly and knowledgeable. The work that he did on my car was excellent and the price was right! If you are looking for an honest, budget-friendly mechanic who is easy to communicate with, look no further than the company!
Erin Taubman
Quick and professional. Called early morning regarding an issue, dropped the car off and had a call back mid-afternoon to come and collect which I wasn’t expecting. Appreciative of their efficiency.
Charles Palmer
Thank you again to the high level of service, detail and care yesterday. Consistently one of the best workshops around and I can’t recommend or thank you guys enough ?
Jonathan Vuey
The company did a perfect job servicing my M3. Really impressed at the fantastic quality of the work, quick turnaround and the fact that the owner, Kaleel, took the time out to answer all my questions
Pejman Mardani
No need to worry about your car at all if you let them look after your car lol
Bin Wang
Excellent service. Price could have been cheaper but quality work and support. They were quite happy to discuss issues in a simple manner after picking up the car.
S G
Honest, reliable, down to earth mechanic situated in South Canberra. Awesome experience and i would not hesitate to reccomend to all my family and friends. Car seems to whistle a new tune everytime it leaves the place. Mario knows his stuff that is for sure. Thank me later!
Joe Niko
Very friendly, happy to answer any questions, great service. I will definitely be going back.
Anthony
Top Notch! Came out to my house and diagnosed my car troubles in no time! Highly recommended!!! Dont waste you time calling anyone else.
Terry Pippos
Kaleel certainly is Bimmer expert. He provides very honest advise. After routine service and some additional work my car drives very well. He checks the car thoroughly and provides the best solution. Definitely will be taking my car again for any service need.
Nitin Kakkar
Always helpful responsive reliable and honest. Support this small business and you wont go wrong.
Martin Waters
This place is always busy so you need to book ahead but well worth the wait. Vince and his team always do a great job. Been using this place for the past 20 years for all my cars servicing.
Jason Sparavec
Thanks Boyz! Great work, very professional & they know their stuff. Totally recommended!
Pablo Pereira Jnr
Ian has become my go to mechanic and one that I’ve come to trust and prefer over any other mechanic I’ve been to. Always honest about issues and will almost always have a solution at a cost friendly price. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Nic Brown
I’ve been having my car serviced by Vince & his team for over 10 years now. Vince always goes out of his way to explain what repairs are being performed & why. Often my kids would just turn up to see Vince with cars they were looking to purchase & he always had 10 minutes to spare for a quick check over. If you’re looking for honesty, integrity & reliability, look no further.
Jacki Mees
Took my Boxster to te company as a half finished project car. Put a 3.6L with a few juicy mods on to the car. Adrian ran an updated wiring loom from a 2004 model, helped me figure out all the additional bit and pieces that were required to make the 2005 996 computer and engine play nice. I think the project was more involved than I had thought but Adrian remained helpful, optimistic and professional. I cant say enough for the work he has done and how much I enjoy the car now. If you are looking for quality work that you will not need to worry about go see Adrian at the company.
Lloyd Cook
Extremely happy with the quality of work and level of service provided. Very helpful. Definitely book ahead as they seem very busy.
Elysa Ledaro
Dropped in Monday morning for a service, a couple of issues discovered and thankful they caught them early otherwise big $$$ later. Picked up car later that day and driving better than ever. Really impressed with the service and work done by Vince and his team. Would recommend.

Unbelievable customer service, very understanding and common knowledge when It comes to products and modifications. Highly recommend!
Matt Joseph
Arrived late to open
Did not carry out work as requested
Left a plug undone and I had to take the car back to manufacturer
Had to get the job finished elsewhere
Brocksta
Just found the most genuine, helpful and reasonable mechanic in town, thanks Mario!
Jane Fitzgerald
Exceptional service, great prices and a very trusted mechanic. I would recommend the company to anyone!
Steven Abboushi
It’s extremely refreshing and satisfying finding a workshop that cares for your vehicle as much as yourself. Having dealt with other ‘specialists’ in the industry over the past 15 years, Simon and the team at the company really stand out by the quality they deliver upon both in a mechanical sense as well as customer service. 11/10 is an understatement.
Nathan B
Best service ever. The whole team are fabulous. They keep you informed on the service and the price. No surprises here!
Highly recommend.
Julie Nichols
Mario is knowledgeable and honest. He’s kept my student daughter’s old car on the road with free checks and very reasonably priced repairs when needed. Recommend 100%
Martin Frohlich
I’ve come back a couple of times to the company and each and every time I am greeted by smiling face, I know more about my car and know how to care for my car. Harvey delivers on promises to complete the work on time. I am very happy customer. I would recommend to family and friends!
Great service and very freindly. Very well priced for there work. Will deffently recommend.

Thank you so much for your speedy service in changing a brake light today on my car for my sons Ps test. I appreciated it so much.
Lisa Curtis
After speaking to a gentleman from another business i got sick of waiting for his responses with pure basic info. Decided to contact the company and was very impressed with the entire experience.
From the after hours assistance and great information/guidance i was happy to go through them for my purchase. I would reccomend them any day of the week. Reece gives me the impression that he cares about his customers and spent a good 25 minutes on the phone with me giving information and advice. Very refreshing to have someone whos passionate about what he does.
Zen Bishop
Highly recommend the boys at the company
Fixed a pesky oil leak on my N54 that other workshops failed to sort out
These guys know their stuff !!!!
Phil Rybinski
Trust is something that is very hard to come by in the automotive industry but the company have been nothing but honest and professional in their works. Considering it is an owner operated workshop, run by Kaleel, it gives me more assurance that the utmost pride and care is taken in their work. I have always taken my BMW 335i to the company and will continue doing so for the length of my ownership or if I ever own another European car again. It is no coincidence that there is a whole range of various European performance cars that also call the company their home.
Rene Peter
Highly recommend people don’t come this place. Got the car want do road inspection here. 2 guys after have look they want rip me off .give me a quote for change 2 tyres 920$ . I find out other place they sell cheaper than 200$ and don’t want go ahead with them.So they’re change 180 .Said my car won’t pass cause blab… Blab . Beware everybody about this place ??
tom5980 Nguyen
You guys are the best! Your products and services are oustanding! My cars wouldn’t be the same without the company. You provide a very valuable and much needed service. Thank you so much!
Alan Jurkowitz
Awesome work shop, 5 star service always go out of there way to help anyway they can. Would highly recommend, hard to find somewhere with this quality of service and workmanship.
Justin Ayoub
Thanks to the company for being able to fix the problem in our bmw which cannot be identified by the dealerships! After having countless encounters for with dealership with no answer and over the top quotes with no promises, Kaleel fixed our problem with a fraction of the previous quotes!
Gin Lim
If I could I would give 6 stars. Professional, effective and prompt service like no other.
M S
Superb service. Reliable, honest, very professional, I wouldnt take my car anywhere else. Thanks a million to the company.
Ana Grieve
Serviced the work VW Amarok with the company and never been happier. This was the 2nd service for the car and when I got home and put the handbrake up it actually worked! Such a small thing like this reassured me that my car was in safe hands. I complained to the dealer about the handbrake when I first picked up the car and they simply said “its within spec and they all feel like that.” I will now always go to an independent specialist like the company.
Kristian Palumbo
Excellent and professional support in upgrading my BMW X1 to enable SiriusXM reception. All went well and Im enjoying satellite radio, thank you!
Tony S
They say first impressions count how so true. The company clean workshop no dramas at all to deal with. They installed my electric brake and dual battery system great work i highly recommend
Calvin Nyamupfukudza
First time user with the company, great friendly helpful staff, reasonable prices compared to others.. Turnaround time was fabulous as well.. Will be back thanks George
Della Wright
Very knowledgeable on service and repairs on European vehicles.
Quality workmanship provided with reasonable prices per vehicle brand.
The Spook
Marno is a professional and has a lot of experience with European cars particularly my M3 he has worked on over the years.
Thank you for years of endless trouble free motoring.
Highly recommended ?????
George ‘G’ Hawi
I had the company guys activate my satellite radio. Price was reasonable & they were able to do it remotely via Skype & Internet. Work was quick & efficient, and the result was a great sounding radio just in time for a drive from Dallas to Atlanta. Very happy with the service.
Mike Snow
Great service, Our audi car was fixed twice and Khaleel has extensive knowledge in European cars.
Hiyas Veliancode
Since my 2013 BMW 328i M sport was out of warranty I decided that I wanted to look for an Independent mechanic that knew there way around a car such as mine. Being a particularly fussy owner I looked all over Melbourne for someone suitable and came across the company. Not only are they reasonably close to home, but there background is in BMW.
I spoke to Kaleel about having my car serviced and looked after and he seemed to know his way around a car like mine and also showed a genuine interest in these types of cars, so the car was booked in.
The morning of my booking I turned up and all was well until it came to the loan car that was also booked for me so I could go about my daily tasks, no loan car was there. After speaking with Kaleel he mentioned it was his mistake and loaned me one of his own personal cars which I found to be extremely generous of him and I give him full respect for that.
Throughout the day I was kept in the loop with the status of the car and what needed to be done, no work was carried out unless there was approval by me
In the late afternoon I picked up my car and found that they had not only serviced my car but they had washed and cleaned it also. I also found the price of the work carried out to be reasonable for what was completed and Kaleel even replaced my wiper blades because he wasn’t happy with how they were functioning (streaking). I also found that all the service lights and notifications were reset on both the dash and the I-drive system, as any BMW owner know the frustrations they can cause being such a complex BMW system.
Driving my car home I felt that the car was much smoother and quieter, I could definitely tell that it was worked on and care was taken. To be honest I don’t even think I remember that feeling anytime I ever picked up my car from BMW servicing. Even 2 weeks after the service the car still feels the way I picked it up from the company.
Overall I am very happy with the company and would recommend them with confidence to anybody looking for an Independent European car mechanic. Kaleel and his team seem to genuinely care about cares they work on and have respect in the work they do.
Adam Groom
This truly the best workshop in Melbourne in my opinion. The company is an honest and very trust worthy place. My whole family sends their cars there as we are a audi family and the Kaleel and his team do such an awesome job on them. My little sister having little knowledge about cars, trusts every decision the team makes. I’d also like to congratulate Kaleel on the new shop in reservoir, massive upgrade from the last with it being easily 4 times bigger then old place.
nathan lim
Thank you to the young man who helped me with my wife’s Polo electrical problem this morning. Complex electronics made simple by good service, just needed a new battery! VW needs these professional people to restore confidence in their service and value.
Richard Winkler
Very knowledgeable staff. Highly skilled. Unpretentious. Honest. Absolutely recommend.
Brian Strathearn
The best mechanic I have dealt with.
Picked up and dropped my vehicle.
Was very satisfied with the service.
Vehicle was also cleaned for no charge.
Highly recommended.

Finally, getting my car serviced is a pleasant experience!
Have been coming back to the company for about a year now. I initially found Marios after a bad experience with another mechanic and he was able to help me get my car fully functional with a honest price and job breakdown.
Just had my latest service here and it was the same experience. Competitively priced with a full breakdown and presented me several options to accommodate my budget. Marios did an awesome job and was as helpful and friendly as ever. We will be coming back for years to come.

I can’t recommend these guys enough. I seem to have had a run of the very worst mechanics in Canberra before I came across the company. The high standards, work ethic, and customer service at this place put them in a league of their own. And Mario’s a top bloke. Don’t bother trying anywhere else.

I recently purchased a ’77 Mercedes Benz 280CE and have taken it to several specialist mechanics to get it serviced and a number of problems resolved.
The company recently looked over the car, fixed all the faults (which other mechanics we unable to) and have it running the best since I purchased it. They’re great to deal with, did everything in a timely manner and are reasonably priced.
I look forward to dealing with them in the future.

After hearing about the company through word of mouth and a quick read through their other positive reviews I felt confident taking my car to them for my M30 rebuild.
As a young guy with not a lot of money and an expensive passion for old BMWs Kaleel understood this and helped me out immensely on the cost while still providing a top quality build.
Dont be fooled by the new, rare and expensive cars in the photos and think you can’t take your old euro to them. The team at the company will put in just as much time and passion into your old euro like they did with my E34.

Had a service done recently which was fine and reasonably priced. They also turned off a warning light which came on after the battery went flat and was jump started. Using diagnostic computer the light was removed in 3 mins at no charge. Dealer wanted car for 1 hour and $80. Would use again. Wish they would smile occasionally though.

I found the company when I encountered a problem with my Audi A4 B8 getting stuck in neutral and park intermittently. I had taken it to a dealer who told me it was just dog hair that was causing the problem and sent me on my way after cleaning the area. Within a few days of getting the car back it got stuck in neutral (luckily in my driveway!) and wouldnt budge.
Kaleel came to visit later that day and diagnosed the problem as a sensor in the gear stick shifter mechanism. To buy the part new was going to cost a small fortune, so Kaleel helped me find the right part for $200 from a wrecker. Within 24 hours of acquiring the part, he had swapped it out and reprogrammed the car. That was 8 months ago and there have been no further gear stick problems.
Since he provided such efficient service on that occasion, last month I got him to do a major service. I dropped my car off and Kaleel had given me one of the company courtesy cars which was super convenient. His pricing was competitive compared to taking it to Audi (and his major service was more thorough than any previous major service visit to Audi).
All in all my experiences with the company have been super positive, I was hesitant initially going away from the dealerships, but now Im wishing I had of done it sooner. You can tell Kaleel genuinely loves his work and its assuring to know that he is only ever a phone call away.
