Joel is the best around – always excellent care of my beloved, rare edition of Mini. He always goes above and beyond with little details, and gets the best parts for the car. I was hoping for Motul 600 brake fluid for my track-ready Mini… sure enough Joel has got it ready. Whether you have a track & canyon car or a daily driver, Joel will keep it in the best shape at fair prices with an honest assessment of what is needed or nice to have on your vehicle. Thanks Joel!

Fast Service. On Time. Excellent Communication. Fair pricing. Quality work. Highly Recommended. This is the shop I get my BMW repaired, for a couple of years now. The owner, Joel, is communicating clearly what is needed, how much it will be, and is doing quality repairs. The car is always ready on time. Same for the Mini of my daughter. This is our go-to shop.

I had just recently bought a new vehicle and wanted to take it in for a routine check up. Joel was very accommodating and the service was fairly quick.

This is the place to go for MINI service. I’ve been here multiple times for repairs and maintenance on my R53 MINI and Joel has been very accommodating and reasonably priced. He was able to get my MINI track day prepped and was able to repair the front end after an overzealous drive on Page Mill. I will be taking my MINI from now on and I would recommend anyone with a MINI to go here also.

Joel is a MINI guru and just the guy I want working on my German cars — he’s a factory-trained tech, MINI and BMW owner, enthusiast and MINI Cooper club leader. He works on both my MINIs and BMWs. Joel is very thorough, prompt, reasonable….and what I appreciate most of all, honest. I never feel like I’m being “sold” or “upsold” any unneeded services. He focuses on what the car needs most immediately and highlights any other findings that can wait until next time or should just be monitored. I highly recommend Joel and appreciate his knowledge and great customer service.

Excellent, honest and fair service. Joel is a great mechanic and a very nice guy. He’s knows his cars and stands behind his work. Highly recommend for BMW and Mini repairs and service.

Joel is an absolute STAR. He is personable, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He works efficiently, and makes the entire experience of getting your car repaired feel “breezy”. Excellent customer service. Above and beyond what I’ve experienced anywhere. A neighborhood gem … you will be so thankful you took your car to Joel at German Auto Service

Joel at GAS is the best! Great customer service, amazing pricing (vs. the dealership), and exceptional work quality. I really appreciated the heads up during the entire repair process as I needed to get my engine mount replaced. I will ONLY be coming here from now on!

Joel Flick, Master Tech, is the man. Knows everything worth knowing about these cars. Friendly, affable, communicative-keeps you in the loop at all times. This shop is a real Bay Area Primary Resource. Guaranteed work at reasonable rates. Put GAS in your network of support!!

We’ve known Joel for quite some time, and my Dad and I brought an E46 to get it checked out before buying it from a dealer, and we couldn’t feel more confident to have Joel help us out. He thoroughly checked the car, treating the inspection like it was him trying to make the decision to buy the car or not. He is extreemly friendly and helped ease our uneasiness about bringing a Beemer into the family. He’s a BMW, Mini Cooper specialist, and he’ll be more than happy to tackle your problems. He’s the grand master of mechanics.
