Complete Automotive Diagnostics, Maintenance, Repair, and Rebuilding

Our full-service shop provides comprehensive automotive diagnostics, maintenance, repair, and rebuilding services for all makes and models of British cars. We specialize in servicing Jaguar, Land Rover, Mini Cooper, Rolls Royce, Triumph, MG, and Austin-Healey vehicles. With over thirty-five years of experience, there is nothing we have not done or cannot do. We understand that’s a bold statement, but we stand by it. In addition, we also offer services for other European vehicles such as Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, and Lamborghini.

Mini Cooper Dealer Alternative

We are the Mini Cooper dealer alternative on the Central Coast. We have purchased and been trained on all the latest equipment required to perform comprehensive diagnostics and maintenance on your Mini, meeting the highest service standards while maintaining your factory warranty. When it comes to your Mini, experience matters; some of our technicians have been servicing and maintaining Mini Coopers since the sixties when they apprenticed in England.

Autologic® & VAG-COM Diagnostics

We feature the latest Autologic® diagnostic equipment for the most effective and efficient service and repair of your Jaguar, Land Rover, and Mini Cooper. Located in San Luis Obispo, California, we are the only shop from Monterey to Santa Barbara that offers the same technology used by dealers… without those inflated dealer prices. All of our expert technicians have been trained by Autologic® Master Technicians.

If you own a late-model Bentley such as a Continental, we now have the technology to perform the same automotive computer diagnostics as the dealer’s expensive zproprietary devices. We proudly provide our customers with this high-end and technologically advanced system.

Over the years, we have acquired hundreds of specialty tools crucial in maintaining your British vehicles. These tools are necessary to service your British cars to the highest standards.

Auto Maintenance and Repair Services

Proper maintenance and repair is essential to the life and enjoyment of your vehicle. We recommend that you change your oil every 3,500 miles with standard oil and every 7,000 with a synthetic. We always use the manufacturer-recommended viscosity.

In recent years, there have been plenty of major breakthroughs in technology that we recommend any owner of a classic vehicle take advantage of. A primary example is upgrading to an electronic ignition. With an electronic ignition, your car will start easier, run smoother, produce more power and torque, and provide significantly improved fuel economy. We also recommend updating to a solid state fuel pump. In recent years, SU has begun production of solid state fuel pumps that are cosmetically identical to the originals. With improvements like these, your classic car will enjoy the best of both worlds: higher performance and improved reliability.

Engine Rebuilding

We offer a complete engine rebuilding service from street to race, antique to modern, and from basic productions to exotic. We can do whatever the customer desires. We also feature a transmission rebuilding service specializing in early British transmissions, including those with overdrives. Overdrives are challenging to repair and rebuild, and only a few shops are up to the challenge.
