MarinaGeneral Service

“Requesting a pre-purchase inspection from Franco was one of the best moves I made buying my first car. He took his time to thoroughly check the car and gave me detailed insight into its condition, explained in plain terms so I knew exactly what I was buying.”

SoniaPre-Purchase Inspection

“I had such a great experience! Franco was super clear and patient, explained everything really well, and was incredibly honest and kind. As a woman it can be hard to find someone you truly trust, but he made me feel comfortable and confident.”

DanielaGeneral Repairs

“I have a '68 VW Beetle and Franco has helped me out a few times. He rebuilt the rear drum brakes so they work perfectly now, and replaced the crankshaft pulley and fan belt. Easy to deal with and great quality work.”
