Hand your car to someone else.
When you book with British Auto Repair, you book with James. Not a service writer. Not a junior tech. Same hands, every visit, every time.
Master technician. Former dealership shop foreman. Eighteen years on the marques he loves — and now, the only set of hands on every job that comes through his door.
James started where some fortunate technicians start: at the bottom, but learning the craft one job at a time from a British mentor with several years working on English brands. The marques chose him as much as he chose them — brands that reward technicians who care about the details, and that's where he stayed.
Over eighteen years, he moved from line technician, to diagnostician, to shop foreman — the role responsible for assigning the toughest jobs, mentoring the rest of the floor, and being the last person consulted before a vehicle leaves with the manufacturer's warranty on the work.
In 2025, he opened British Auto Repair. Same training. Same passion. No more hassling with the dealership.
Plus dealership-level training and equipment for Mercedes-Benz and Rivian platforms.

If a part has life left, you'll be told. If a job can wait, you'll be told. The shop runs on long-term clients, not commission targets.
Factory tools. Factory procedures. Factory-grade parts where they matter. Being independent isn't an excuse — it's the freedom to do the job right.
"The dealership is a great place to learn. It's not always the right place to bring your vehicle for the next ten years. I built this shop so the people who own these cars have a real alternative — without giving anything up."
