The team at Balmain European are the best mechanics I have ever dealt with. They were so open, honest and transparent when diagnosing my cooling issues and very helpful when working on and sourcing parts for an older vehicle. I could not recommend them more!

H Western January 2026

Took my Mercedes E250 to Balmain European Car Repairs and honestly couldn’t be happier with the service. Manny and Mark were both super professional and took the time to explain everything clearly, which I really appreciated. The prices were fair and the work was done properly — they gave me a full diagnosis and fixed what needed to be done without any upselling or guesswork. It’s rare to find mechanics who are this knowledgeable and honest. Highly recommend these guys if you’re after quality European car service done right.

Manny did an excellent job fixing the vacuum leak for my 2002 VW Bora V5. Its a rare car and many parts are discontinued. He managed to create custom hoses and clamps for the existing system and now it runs even better. The brakes are strong now as well as the acceleration. My other mechanic whom I had known for more than 20 years couldn't even fix it. I will definitely be bringing the car to Manny for all future servicing and repairs and even my other rare cars; a Nissan Juke Nismo RS and once the servicing plan finishes, my GR Corolla.

Three lots of positive feedback for Manny & his team: 1. My wife’s BMW had been serviced by BMW since new, including a 3 year service extension period. When that expired, we took the car to Balmain European as we’d been customers for more than twenty years. After that service, I kid you not, the car had never run better in its life! 2. My son’s girlfriend needed a timing belt replaced on her VW Golf. She obtained three quotes before I recommended Balmain European which came in equal cheapest. She was so impressed with their professionalism and personable approach and will continue to see them for her car’s servicing. 3. I needed a pink slip but couldn’t get there for opening when these sorts of jobs are done. Regardless, the inspection & report were done with a smile & within 20 minutes. Manny is the third owner I’ve dealt with at Balmain European, and not only is he carrying forward the solid reputation of the business, he’s building on it with an evident pride, dedication, an excellent team and an obvious passion for motor vehicle services. I highly recommend this business
