My brother suggested me to try out VMZ AUTOMOTIVE. I took my Audi a3 2016. Honestly, will be coming here from now on. Very straight forward to the point. Also showed me physically what needed to be done. I got my break pads fixed with pat! He was available to fix my car asap. He also provided me with a written document to say what he fixed and examined on the day. So far no issues with my baby! Running nice and smooth. He’s a good mechanic, honest and reliable. Also gives very reasonable pricing! Looking forward to my next service!
Amazing family business. Great communication and quality service. Fixed our car issues quickly with no hassle. Have had bad experiences with mechanics in this area until now. Very happy we found VMZ Automotive! Good to know there are still honest and friendly businesses in our community.
We have been taking our cars to Pat for the last 2 years and honestly cannot recommend a better mechanic. VMZ definitely looks after us and we have never had any issues at all, he is trustworthy and reliable. If anything needs to be done/added to the service, his lovely wife Daniella always keeps us informed beforehand and checks to see if we are happy to add on to the service. Without a doubt we defs recommend Pat and Daniella to everyone.
I recently had my Audi A4 repaired at VMZ Automotive, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Pat was professional, honest, and took the time to explain everything clearly. He fixed my Audi A4 efficiently and made the whole process stress-free. It’s not easy to find a mechanic you can truly trust, but Pat and his beautiful wife at VMZ Automotive delivered excellent service and fair pricing. Highly recommend! 🤍
