They did in a flash and with great kindness. It made everything much easier and less worriesome so I could focus on the important things 🙂

John has been a true gentleman in recently helping my family out with fixing up our old Volvo - my wife's favorite car ever.

I just moved to Santa Cruz and was worried about finding a mechanic as good as the one I had in Oregon. Been going here ever since!

I have known John since he apprenticed under the late Len Roach (Len Roach Mercedes) who worked on my father's cars in the 80s.

Came in from out of town for a friends wedding and a bunch of warning lights came on in my car while taking her to her appointments. On the way to one, I spotted this location and swung through to see if they could help. They did in a flash and with great kindness. It made everything much easier and less worriesome so I could focus on the important things 🙂 Thank you guys!! Top notch.

Honest and professional. I had to get my brake pads replaced on my BMW. These guys did a professional job starting from the honest diagnosis, to dropping me off home to having the car ready out front when I showed up. Highly recommend them from my experience.

I just moved to Santa Cruz and was worried about finding a mechanic as good as the one I had in Oregon. I was sent here by an smog test shop because the check engine light was on and the car wouldn't pass with it on. Brought it over and they checked it for free and cleared the minor error that was making the light turn on for. Been going here ever since!

Honest people. The owner is almost always there and can answer almost every question. If not he will go out of his way to find the answer.

These guys are HONEST and FAIR. I am generally skeptical about mechanics, but after my experience at Hayes European, I know I can trust them. I am very impressed, and very glad I took my car to them.

Absolutely the best mechanic EVER. Brian is the man. Honest, forthright, bright, knows BMW's in and out and a true gentleman. He is my mechanic for life. Thoughtful, thorough, precise, accurate, fair, trust worthy, generous. All that praise, is it possible? Yes. Try it. Brian will never disappoint. I took my BMW 330ci to him after the car was meticulously maintained by the dealer for more than 10 years but I let it go for almost 22k miles and just when it was dying I took it to Brian. After the service and a thorough look Brian brought it back to almost new and it works like a charm as I commute the hill and back daily. Brian, thanks for fixing my seat motor for free. thanks for renewing my oil for free. thanks for all your advice and your friendship. Honesty pays and he knows it.

The professionalism and speed in which they handle all my needs is very comforting. Again I am a mechanic I know what I am getting and what I am not. They don’t just do this with me. I wanted to put them to the test. I sent them the pickiest customer I could find, my stepdad. He was ecstatic. If he is happy they must be doing something right. I recommend this shop for any foreign car.
