"Brian Sanders and his mechanics at August European in San Diego did a great job fixing my car. My BMW was not running right so they ran a diagnostic and quickly found the problem. Then they fixed it and got me back on the road, fast. They were polite, listened to my wants and needs, followed my special instructions, finished the job on time and as quoted. I highly recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys!"

"I can't say enough wonderful things about August European. I will never have anyone else service my cars except this shop. The honesty and expertise are unmatched and I have never been disappointed since I started coming here instead of the dealership.”
