L & M deals with customers as long term relationships and German cars as machines .. ;)
There are many reasons why these guys have been servicing German machines for over two decades. Firstly, they don't work on your car as if it's just a "car"-- instead, they recognize that German autos are first class machines, requiring care, knowledge, patience and detailed, careful work. Second, unlike dealers and other mechanics, these guys recognize the value of running a business with long term customer relations. They regard each and every customer with respect, attention, and careful regard to respect the customer's wallet- I know it seems incredible in this day and age, but these guys are keen to foster customers for the long run. In my case, a few months ago, my Audi broke down in a Manhattan garage, and based on the reviews, I gave L & M a call. Bill came on the phone, and despite never having met me, he patiently listened to what I had to say, made some recommendations on how to get the car started. Once this was done, I drove over to Brooklyn, and they looked at my car, despite lacking an appointment- they saw that I was out of town, and needed help badly. Billy and his crew, went over the car in detail, identified the problem, and charged me a very reasonable price and quick around time You dont get the nagging feeling you're paying too much, nor are you pestered with tales of what else is wrong with your car. They were so nice, that while the CPU was plugged into the car, Billy installed a software patch for my transmission which made the car faster- for FREE! Where else will you get such service? It's no wonder I travel from Boston to Brooklyn just to get fair, honest, professional work on my investment. As an economics professor, I appreciate L & M's business philosophy of cultivating long term relations- these guys are a gem !! Highly recommended!! Do note that German cars are machines and work may take longer than expected-- but an ounce of prevention with these guys will save you an unpleasant breakdown later.
Pros: Professional, Honest, Straightfoward

Great service!!
I've always dreaded car mechanics: being a girl and afraid I may not understand what the mechanics are explaining to me, not knowing if I'm being ripped off etc, etc. BUT i'm glad to have found a place that puts all my uneasiness to rest. Billy takes his time explaining in layman terms everything I needed to know, offers good, sound advise and is very reasonably priced (I didn't feel like I was being taken advantage of at all). He orders parts in front of you and makes you feel like part of his family - definitely not the hard-core mechanic, macho feel at some other places. Billy even called me a couple of days later to follow-up to see if my car was running ok - I have definitely NEVER received such a follow-up call from any other mechanic! I agree with all the positive feedback on this site and if you are used to feeling apprehensive about going to try out a new mechanic, I strongly recommend L&M Foreign Cars
