Foreign Car Specialists

My Mini Cooper is my baby and I always do the repairs myself unless it's a bigger job, and in that case I have a friend who's an awesome mechanic. After moving to Madison I needed to find a new mechanic who knew what they're doing. I tried the Mini Cooper Dealership on three separate occasions and they were all bad experiences so I wrote them off. (Their prices were outrageous too) I tried another import repair shop on the west side and they installed a heater blower motor that has made loud noises since. I was getting exhausted, then I found this gem. My Mini had been throwing a check engine light for some time whenever the turbo would be hard pressed. I tried several things to fix it and couldn't figure it out. I took it to Foreign Car Specialists and they walked me through the issue and solution. After repairing it the car runs A1, and it was reasonable. I will always bring my car here moving forward.

I had a brake issue, and was told to look for an independent shop. I haven't used one in a while, and called. The shop was helpful in me understanding who might be able to do the pad replacement and rotor refinishing while still explaining what they would do. We played phone tag and messaged back...all extremely responsive.... while I was working with texts included. They were already busy through the upcoming holiday and offered 4-5 other options for me with contact numbers, and the very first one was able to set me up giving me the same information. I don't have a foreign car now, but when I eventually get one, I would definitely trust this shop from their help to redirect and be honest with me.

Doug and the staff at Foreign Car Specialist did great work on my ‘04 Jaguar. Doug and staff were extremely well versed in the repairs of my vehicle, they were upfront and honest about my repairs. I’ll bring my car back to them in the future.

Real pro shop. Great communication. Highly recommend

Had to take my 01 330ci here 3 times with a one-month span, these guys are the best. Fixed a ton of major issues very quickly, and were nice enough to explain everything in a way I could understand (I don't know much about cars). Aaron especially was super helpful and kind. My only recommendation would be for them to fix the potholes in their driveway
