What is great about C's Autohaus is what they didn't do; they didn't try to take advantage of me because I'm a Mercedes owner, which up until now, I thought was some kind of code for moron to repair shops. I'm used to taking my car in to a shop and having them try to sell me thousands of dollars worth of useless repairs with highly inflated part costs. C's Autohaus was able to diagnose that it was just the starter motor, and replaced it at a responable price. They were also able to find and fix an oil leak the same day at, again, a reasonable price, and they fixed some minor performance issues while they were in there gratis. After those repairs my fuel economy went from about 10 l/100km to around 7 l/100km (smaller number is better). The shop itself is pretty cool too. They have a lot of old VWs from the 60s and 70s on their lot which I'm guessing are project cars.

Was suppose to make it look like it came off the showroom floor. I dropped my car off at the end of June 2010. Asked him if he needed monies up front, he said no. Two weeks later he wanted monies so that he could pay his state taxes. (That should have been a red flag to me - but the guy claimed he was a Christian - Hog Wash!) Our agreement was for the car to be painted and done so I could finish the engine and interior installation in time for Mecum's Auction in Septemer of 2010. Needless to say, I had to cancel the show as he didn't have my car painted. Months, I tell you months went by with nothing done! - July, August, September, October - then-------- He promised the car would be done by Thanksgiving Day - well - here we go again! Not done again - except his time - he took my rebuilt car - painted it like it belonged in a demolition derby - you to it. Racing strips across the top, 70 painted on the doors, and the words "Painted by Myers Auto Body" on the back quarter panels. The really sad part - he was proud of his work! Can you imagine that - Proud! He even gave me pictures - he was so proud! Well - we were at it again. Everytime I made comments about how nothing was getting done. He'd laugh. He went as far as constantly sending his employees home because he didn't have funds to pay them. Strange I paid him! Of course Christmas and New's Years came and went. Any progress on my car - not no but heck no! On January 17th I picked my car up and took it elsewhere. $5000 and 6 months later I had nothing to show for it, except a car painted for the demolition Derby. Check it out - I posted it on Youtube - just type in Myers Auto Body.
