Customer's reviews

I reached out to A-1 and spoke to to JP about a pre-purchase inspection. JP was very generous with his time upfront, helping me understand what all he would do as part of the inspection, and what his availability looked like. Also, his pricing was very competitive. I had him look over an Audi I was planning to purchase in the area, and his pre-purchase inspection report was very comprehensive, and detailed. He sent me an email with the report, and then spent about 20 mins with me on the phone explaining what each concern meant and the severity of each concern. I couldn't have asked for more, and I highly recommend A-1 Imports! ~ Mathew T
JP and the team took a look at my 1975 BMW 2002 a few years back. I had rebuilt it as a high schooler in my driveway, but wanted to make sure I didn’t make any fatal flaws before driving it 6 hours to college for the first time. Not only did they tune a couple things for a fair price, they were thrilled and passionate about sharing some insight into the nuances of that particular model. Years later, I pulled over due to a new noise and remembered one of the tips JP passed on. I located the issue, tuned it according to his rec with one flathead and got back on the road, running better than ever. That level of care and expertise is rare in this day and age, and I cannot recommend them enough. ~ Chad B
I just want to share a quick thank you to the team at A-1. They did a coolant system repair on my Audi S3 and about five or six months later, I noticed that the coolant level had dropped a bit. They set a convenient time for me to bring the car in and did a full pressure test of the system without any questions asked. As it turns out they didn't find a leak (thankfully) .... I just really appreciate that they took responsibility for the original work and took care of this. Follow up inspection without any additional charge. I would absolutely recommend working with these guys. ~ Roland S
