Serving Palos Verdes
Your South Bay German Car Specialist Serving Palos Verdes
Fifteen minutes north on Hawthorne Boulevard. Close to seventy years of experience with the cars that deserve it most.
The specialist your German car deserves.
Palos Verdes is home to some of the finest European cars in Southern California. Classic Mercedes-Benz sedans, vintage BMW coupes, immaculate Audis, and cherished Porsches. We know these cars because we have been maintaining them for their owners for decades.
Mike opened this shop in 1980 on Artesia Boulevard in Redondo Beach, about fifteen minutes north of the Palos Verdes Peninsula via Hawthorne Boulevard or PV Drive North. Owners ship their vintage German cars to us from across the United States, so a fifteen-minute drive from PV is nothing.
We understand what it means to own a car worth preserving. The vintage Mercedes vacuum systems, the BMW VANOS timing, the Audi quattro drivetrains. These require a mechanic who has close to seventy years of combined experience, with the personal touch and transparent pricing of a family-owned South Bay shop.
We service all German makes — Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, and VW — plus all other foreign vehicles. If you are in Palos Verdes with a German car, we are almost certainly the right shop for you.
