L & M Foreign Cars turned an unsavory experience with an unscrupulous Manhattan Auto Repair shop into a thorough and smooth restoration of our car. My daughter, who had our Virginia based VW in Brooklyn, N. Y. over the holidays, collided with road debris in the Lincoln Tunnel. She had the car towed to 54th St. Auto Center on Dec. 30th for repairs, diagnosed by them, as oil pan replacement. The repair failed, the engine seized, the auto shop refused to release the car for repairs elsewhere, refused to calculate what charges were due on the car, even lied about a check they received from our insurance company. Bad scene upon bad scene three weeks into her ordeal - I told my daughter that I would handle research and repairs from Virginia. Bill Roth and his son Michael listened to my telephone account of the nightmare experience, asked numerous probing and intelligent questions about the accident and the cars condition, and agreed to take on the project. All this occurred after a 15-minute conversation with a total stranger. The VW is a 2001 GTI and is now better than new! It has always been a good car. With its restored engine and numerous other adjustments necessitated by the accident and subsequent faulty repairs, it should serve for many years of safe and enjoyable driving. Its reassuring to know that we now have a superb shop of mechanics to call on the Brooklyn to service the car in the future. All of the work to restore the engine was accomplished within the budget established by the adjuster sent out by our insurance company. I could not recommend more highly the L & M Foreign Car-Guys. Like good surgeons everywhere, Bill Roth called the day after my daughter picked up the car to check on its performance. I am left with a renewed faith in the honesty and skill of truly fine mechanics. Theirs is an art form of the highest order. Mary Wheeler Fredericksburg, VA

I discovered L & M two years when on a trip from Boston into NYC my car broke down. After hearing the umpteenth shakedown from Audi dealers (brakes, coils, suspension) I took a chance and went to L & M. The folks at L & M told me exactly what was wrong, fixed it, and I emerged without feeling I'd been ripped off. From that time on, each time I need something done, I'd drive down from Boston to Brooklyn for servicing/repairs. Then I moved to Toronto (Canada). How good are these guys? I time my servicing during vacations so I can bring my Audi to L & M. Blue Audi (Boston & Toronto).

I am a physician who actually makes house-calls so I was very pleased when L&M completed the tune-up and service of my MiniCooper in 24 hours. They are extremely friendly, responsive to questions, and trustworthy which is important since I am a novice when it comes to cars. I have already recommended them to 3 of my friends!

I have had a car in New York for over a year now, and was going to a mechanic that was cheap and did decent work, but I wasn't completely satisfied. I tried L & M, and I was immediately impressed. I took my 1999 Nissan Altima to them to get an idler pulley and belt installed. They got me in and out in less than an hour, and were friendly in the process! It wasn't shady in any way and the price was very reasonable. I feel that they are honest and definitely know what they are doing. I would reccomend L & M to anyone who needs work done on their car. I've found my mechanic!

I love this place and so does my 1997 bmw .Billy and his sons service him. They are all beyond courteous in every way. They perform only the work needed to get the car running unless they throw in extra adjustments and updates to tweak him out. I would highly suggest them to anyone with a foreign car. Love these guys! DEL

Great overall experience! Bill and his sons are very friendly, accommodating, and they treat their customers with honesty and respect. The elusive mechanical noise that I've been hearing for months was finally diagnosed. Bill personally took time to drive around with me, pin-pointing the issue. Everything was properly explained, estimated and all the work was done in the best time frame possible. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of high quality automotive mechanical expertise. Many Thanks!!!

I've been to many mechanics all over the place. Now I have found one that I can trust and not worry about getting ripped off or getting terrible work done. I went to get some things checked out, and the experience was amazing. Long story short, The service is great, the prices are great, and the guys over there let you watch and learn about everything they are doing to your car. I learned more about my car in one day than I would have in a lifetime! The coolest part was the diagnostic testing. You get to see all the codes and the readouts on a big plasma screen TV. I never thought getting your car fixed could be such a good experience. I want to thank all the guys at L & M Foreign Cars. Paul B. Brooklyn, NY
