I took my 335i for a preventive maintenance to Bavaria Cars. I did a booking in advance and dropped the car as per the booking. Marno communication is superb and he kept me informed of expected charges for the job. They performed only the repairs I decided on and had the car ready by the promised date. They are honest, transparent and a professional team. After looking for a trustworthy mechanic for a while I would highly recommend these guys.

I suspect a coolant leak in my BMW 2013 135 convertible, and took the car to Marno. He confirmed the leak was from the coolant tank and replaced it with a new one. Sent the car in the morning and got it back in the afternoon. Happy with the result and the price, simply unbeatable. BTW, he does the work himself so it would be nice to make a booking using their website instead of calling him cause he could be busy fixing someone else's car.

Given my old mechanic has now closed up shop. I choose Bavaria due to the great reviews. I emailed to book a service request and Marno was responsive. I am also fussy with mechanics and prefer using OEM or genuine BMW parts. Marno was great with showing me videos and photos on parts which needed to be replaced and quoting what brands he used. I also had other technical queries and he was able to respond to them on the day which was something I look for from a highly skilled mechanic. Overall if you need work done on any car, i would entrust Marno to have a look at your car or BMW.
