Best euro car guys in LA! Always treated with impeccable service, utmost respect and fair prices along with total honesty / transparency. I can’t recommend these guys enough to anyone who cares about their car and appreciates good mechanic work.

I’m generally skeptical of all auto shops. I’ve taken several of my cars here and now I recommend it to everyone I know. They are consistently reliable and honest. The costs are the lowest I’ve found in LA for real service. They know their business.

John, the owner, is one of the most highly knowledgeable and no-nonsense people I've ever had work on my BMWs. He's helped me diagnose problems on my 1976 BMW 2002 and a few of the mid 90's 5 series I've owned over the years... You can trust that he'll get the job done quickly and cost-effectively.

I highly recommend European Auto Service without reservation. John and his crew are knowledgeable, experienced, reliable, and, most importantly, honest. It is the only car mechanic that I trust in LA... I paid significantly less than other car mechanics offered.
