Brad took care of my 2005 330 Cic. I had no problem reaching him on the phone; and when I left a message later in the day, he promptly returned my call. (remember he is a one man shop, so he can't work on the car and answer the phone, which is fine with me!) The work was done on time as estimated. He took the time to discuss my goals for the car. MUCH better than my experience at the dealership!

used Brad to do a Inspection, Oil Change, front brakes, etc, on my E46 325cic at around 150k miles. He did a good job, on schedule, called with reasonable estimates for the work to be done. Quite a list of things to do, we wound up doing about half, and deferring some of the others, but I'll go back to do the rest.

All the reviews of Brad's shop have been very positive. The person I bought my BMW from also recommended him. Unfortunetly. I have called his shop on more than five separate occasions, and have never talked to him. He has never once answered his phone. Left messages, no reply. I am extremely dissapointed with this shop for this. I gave up..

I own a 1990 BMW 750 IL and I agree 200% with the 4 statements above. When I first used Brad's work, he solved a problem with my engine that none of 4 other mechanics in the previous 2 years (at a cost of $1,500) had been able to diagnose and repair. He did this in 30 minutes at a minimum of cost.

Brad is a great mechanic. I have been bringing my bimmers to him for a long time and I am confident that my car is in good hands every time. This is a great shop and I highly recommend him over going to a dealership, especially with older cars.
As a side note it looks like a lot of "Steve's" out here love bimmers.

Yup, Brad does top-notch work, keeps great records, and provides very detailed service notes. He always has time to talk about your car and your situation.
From timely maintenance to suspension work to diagnosing and fixing erratic engine behavior, Brad took great care of my older 3-series.

I am in total agreement with Stephen above. Brad keeps very good records and all of his recommendations and finished works are top-notch. His prices are in line with industry standards.

Brad provides great service at a fair price. This is one person you can trust with complete confidence.
