Was told the price for the alternator was $600+. When I questioned John the mechanic about the price and told him a new one on Atlantic British was $290, he told me their shop won't compete with on-line discount part supplier. On top of that, 5 hours for labor at $500. If anyone knows Disco's, replacing the alternator is the most accessible part on the engine. So disappointed in the quote, I paid $125 for the diagnosis and towed my car to another mechanic. These guys are despicable. Avoid at all cost.

This business is family run and you can tell because Lee and John were very helpful throughout the whole process. In addition, the mechanic Rick who worked on my car, came out when my car was done and told me exactly what he did to my BMW so that I could understand my car that much better. First class service all the way along with quality work too. They clearly take the time to make sure you get your money's worth.

It almost looked factory and it was a measly 100 dollars. Lloyd is what you could call a "good ol boy." He is one of those guys that just knows his stuff. And he obviously does radiators! He does motorcycle gas tank and seat repair on the side.
