I've been going to H&P for well over a decade for all my cars. I send all my friends there who have…read moreforeign cars. I would trust Paul with the keys to my house. Despite moving to Colchester, H&P is still my auto mechanic. I don't trust anyone else. Whenever I go, they always tell me what needs to be fixed immediately vs what can wait longer, and for how much longer. They're always honest and I never feel taken advantage of or ripped off - so important when dealing with an auto mechanic. Whenever I've compared prices, H&P always has the best value. This place has been around for decades and Paul continues to carry on the legacy of his father.

They were one of the few shops that would let me bring in my own parts for replacement. And when I didn't have parts - they were able to source them at insanely reasonable prices. I never felt cheated or hoodwinked. Very honest, thorough but quick work. If I could, I would have brought the whole shop along with me when I moved. Tldr: Paul and Paul Jr. are amazing and I cannot recommend them enough.

I purchased my daughter's BMW 2016 X4 with 114,000 miles. She lives the North Shore. Boston has…read morebeen taking it to NorthShore Autoworks , specializing in Bmw's, etc. they told her that she would need front brakes in future and oil pan leaking mildly . Could wait until this fall 2026. I bring it to Portland automotive and they tell me I have about 15 things that should be addressed , total of $7200. Somehow, I didn't feel comfortable with the service manager owner when I asked him if there was flexibility in pricing during a text exchange, he did not answer. He seemed annoyed when I asked him if the parts were OEM, there was no detail on the estimate, In this regard. I have driven BMWs for 20 years. So I just got a phone call from a very highly regarded Bmw mechanic in West Hartford, who is known for as honesty. He told me my brakes were 75% fine a little wire on the rotors on the front and a little less in the back, but nothing I had to address right away. Whereas Portland automotive told me I needed a complete thermostat sensor yada yada when they check the codes, this Mechanic and West Hartford said he would do less and then see what happens (instead of trying to gauge me.) what convinced me to get another opinion was reading the reviews on Portland automotive, which seems sketchy, especially by men who probably it appears to me no more about cars versus the women to think they're very nice. Well, I'm a woman, but I go with my gut instinct, and in this case, it told me to go elsewhere.

If I could leave 6 stars I would. We have taken three of our family's cars to Cesar and have been…read morevery satisfied each time. They are well organized and all of the people in the front office are a pleasure to work with. They have gone above and beyond on a few of the repairs. Example 1 - the Audi dealer said my wife's Audi Q5 needed a valve cover gasket and a breather hose. Ceasar's determined that the valve cover gasket was fine, and that the breather had leaked a few drops of oil onto it and made it look like it was leaking. The dealership would have just gone ahead and done this pretty expensive job which wasn't needed. Example 2 - my daughter's Honda CRV was having idling issues. Cesar's determined that it was the ECU and the NOXX sensor. They sourced a less expensive computer board and got her back up in a short period of time. Before that, my daughter had taken it to a random roadside garage when the problem first started because she was nervous about it, and they had quoted her all kinds of unnecessary repairs. I'd leave Cesar's 6 stars if I could!

He didn't play up how critical the issue was to pressure me into having it fixed right then. Not many mechanics I've been to in the past would have been that honest. Additionally, talking with Kevin, and seeing clients catch up with him, made it clear that many clients have stuck with this shop for years. South Street Auto seems to value building lasting customer relationships over extorting them over individual repairs. I'll definitely be back here in the future.

I'd had another auto guy tell me I needed new brakes, new transmission and engine mounts and a bunch of other repairs, so decided to get a quote a 'south street auto' Kevin the owner said I only needed brake bracket parts and cleaning, and something with the power steering but that my brakes were almost new and the engine looked great. I asked him to do everything on the car while I was there to make sure it was safe for my college aged son to drive and it all totaled $414. I saved a few thousand by coming here. I noted that every guy that came in was a 50-70 year old local who had obviously been taking their cars there for years. This is now my go-to auto place. Kevin could have told me anything was wrong with my car and I'd have no clue but he obviously runs a honest and extremely fair priced.
