I've been bringing my mini cooper to Anthony for a while now and am so thankful I found him! Mini's are tough cars to work with. He is flat out excellent, pricing is reasonable, and I know my car is in good hands when being serviced. I absolutely recommend him!!!

15 years go I found Sonny's shop in Nassau with a parking lot full of Porsches. I was very glad to find such an honest and dependable mechanic, especially since servicing these cars is usually expensive. He has always done the right thing for me, and is reasonably priced considering his skill level and the cars he works on. I went away for a few years to go to school, get married, and have kids, and was very pleased to see him still in business! He's got my car right now, and I'm excited to get it back once he gets it straight again. I would trust him with anything that moves.

It's sad how the allure of money changes someone (in this case, Guy) who you thought was a trusted and skilled mechanic. I had a simple engine splash plate underneath the car get loose and just needed that replaced. As you can imagine, it's a simple job that would take a maximum of 2 hours (and that's being kind considering that this was a slow day for his shop). He tied up the loose plate underneath for the time-being with a piece of metal in order to prevent it from sliding on the ground while i drive. This would holdover until tomorrow. He told me it'd be $120 total (about $60+ for parts and the rest for labor, which I originally thought was outrageously high but I trusted his skill and experience with me in the past so I went with it--oh boy was I wrong!). He wanted a $50 deposit that would go towards the final price at the end. We were slated to do this the next day, but a few hours after first seeing him about this plate issue, I called him to ask him why the aftermarket part was so expensive because I researched online and saw that the Honda plate is about $80-$90, and I couldn't find an aftermarket one that costs more than $50. He said it's because I want it done quick the next day (considering it's not the same day, is it really quick? but ok, again, another thing I did not contest because he did a good job for me in the past) and that's the only place that sells it for next-day delivery (what place? i didn't bother to ask because, again, i trusted his previous record with me). I was standing there with him in his shop while he called to ask for the part. He didn't even call many places for the part; only one place. Looking back, I should've said something. Tomorrow's here and I dropped my car off at the time we agreed upon. I left the car there. About an hour later, he calls me from two different phone numbers asking me "hey where is your wheel lock?" 21 minutes after he called me and left a voicemail, I called him back (yes I'm looking at my call history right now). I told his secretary that the wheel lock is in the glove compartment and I told her to tell him that I would like to have the car up so that I can look underneath it to inspect the work and the new part (you'll see later at the end of this review that I never got to see the work with the car up so I can look and touch the part). 2 hours and 45 minutes after I dropped the car off, he called to tell me it was ready to get picked up. An hour went by and I went to pick it up. HERE IS WHERE GUY'S AUTOMOTIVE BECAME GUY THE SCAMMER. I entered the shop and asked Guy "hey can you have the car up so that I can take a look at it?" Guy says "lay low on the floor and look at it, it's new so you can tell." I did just that and as far as I can tell, yeah it's a newer part. I checked a few more times after, I still can't tell if it's been used but it's definitely newer than the one I had before--but that's a very low bar considering that the one I had was scraping the floor for like 20 miles going about 60-70 mph on I-95 before I brought it to him. I let that slide but I was already smelling Mr. Scammer working up tricks. I went back into the shop and Guy tells me "yeah we didn't end up using many rubber screws for the job so I'll give you a discount of $3 off that $120, so you're looking at $117." Ok, that's fine. And then here is the KICKER. Guy then says "yeah but listen, we had to go look for the wheel lock because we waited for you to call back so now the total is $167. Oh and by the way, I never was able to find the wheel lock." 20 minutes of waiting costs an extra $47? I couldn't wrap my head around this so I said "uh yeah you're raising the price by a lot, I can't accept this." He knew he was up to his BS limit (or what most people would call LYING) so he then said "ok let's meet in the middle. Let's split the $47 in half which is $24 and you can pay me $144 total" It's actually $23.50 but I agreed because at this point, I knew I would never go back to his shop. Got in my car & the wheel lock was sitting right in the glove compartment just as I explained.

My experience with Mariela was a nightmare. After what has happened, I cannot in good conscience not say anything. I called the Woodside location and asked about finding the source of a smell in my car. I asked if they had same day availability and they said that they did. It took over two days for them to get to my car, with my calling every day. I was never called back when I was told I would be. On the third day they finally looked at my car and gave me a laundry list of repairs that needed to be done on top of replacing the carpet. The office manager tried every trick in the book, including telling me “you know us girls we don’t always take care of our cars”, to try to get me to get the extra repairs done. She did not ask before if they could do a full diagnostic. If they had I would have said yes. I agreed to have an oil change, paid their diagnostic fee, and agreed to have the carpet replaced. They placed an order on the carpet and I paid up front. We agreed on a time for me to come pick up my car - 5 hours later - but they had not yet completed my oil change. She told me to come back after an hour. When I returned it still was not ready for me. She then took me into the back of the shop to show me holes in the bottom of my car underneath the carpet. Why would they tell me the carpet needed to be replaced and not have looked underneath the carpet? Why was this not included in the previous list of work done? And how can they say that they completed a full diagnostic and then find this additional thing? I asked for an itemized estimate of the rest of repairs they said that I needed. She was very resistant and finally gave me a hand-written list, without itemized prices, just a lump sum at the end. And then it took another half-hour for them to pull the car out and only because I asked her to check. I was supposed to come back 5 days - or 3 business days - later. In the meantime, I took the car to another mechanic for a second opinion. They confirmed a couple of repairs needed but said that the brakes - a very costly repair - did not need any work done. The day before I was supposed to come back, I called to confirm my appointment. The office manager said she did not know the status of the carpet shipment. Again, I was not called back when I was told to expect a call. I was told that the carpet shipment was delayed and it could be up to another 5 days for it to come in. She told me that I should stop calling, that she said that she was going to call me when she had an update, and that I was wasting her time calling to check in. After a long conversation on the phone I went to the office to continue the conversation. After another long conversation she finally said that I should talk to her manager, who was at the Westbury location. She reluctantly gave me his information, saying that I could look it up and then writing down the phone number on a piece of paper. How was I supposed to know not to bring in my car the following day if I had not called to confirm my appointment? Was I supposed to show up only to be turned away? I drove out the following morning to speak to the manager. He was, to his credit, very professional. He offered a refund on the labor, since after all of this I was not going to have the work done at either of their shops. He said he would give me the carpet at cost for me to take to another shop. He their policy of not returning parts, stating that they cannot get it refunded from the distributor. The Auto Custom Carpet website states that they accept returns so long as the customer pays return shipping and a 20% restock fee. In our final conversation of many, he offered me shop credit for the cost of the carpet. After all that has happened, can you blame me for not taking my car back to their shop? I know that they will write their own side of the story in response. I know they have plenty of regular clients. Do them the kindness of listening to us both and making your own decision. But after what happened, I personally cannot recommend them.
