Hey Guys;

Can anyone living in or around the Minneapolis area offer a recommendation to a local Indie Shop that has a solid reputation for working on Jags?

I've located a couple of shops, but anyone with firsthand experience would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!!!

 

I've taken several Jags to Top Gear on Cedar Ave. Dave is the owner and used to work as a mechanic at the dealer. His shop caters to all European luxury and exotic marques. He has saved me thousands of dollars on a 2004 XJ8 transmission issue and handled one of my previous X-Types. Also, I discovered a Jag specialist in St Louis Park that I am going to try for some suspension and windshield washer repairs in a week or two.

 

I have used DJ Foreign Auto at times and they have been fine.

 

I have used Metric Auto in Woodbury several times and very pleased with their work. They work on high end European autos specializing in BMW's and Merc's, but so far they have done transmission service and general maint on my 08 XK coupe with very good results.

 

Jeff Flynn at Special Interest Auto Service has been great. When I was in his shop the other day there were 5 vintage E-types, a couple XJS convertibles and some Rolls Royces. I needed only a minor repair and he was able to have me pull right in and fix it while I waited. In addition to British cars, they do Italian too.

 

I just purchased a 2008 XKR that will need some attention. Which places in Twin Cities area are best bets for both routine and more serious issues?
