Replaced drive shaft in my beloved Disco, finished a day early. Polite team of Englishmenensured I was road worthy and stayed in communication the whole time.Very knowledgeable Mad Dogs!

Charlie is to British cars what Mick Jagger is to rock n roll. Actually... he kinda looks like him as well. LOL, the guy is a character full of personality and expression.When I came to pick up my car I got my bill from his son Christian (who is very courteous and seemingly raised well) and Charlie explained a few issues that my car has that could use some addressing. He didnt do anything more than what we had originally spoke about. There were no add-on costs.The way he described my cars timing issue and a few other things; I wasnt expecting much of a difference from when I had dropped the car off. But, I was wrong. To my amazement he had restored so much of my cars power and economy. I was really impressed.This guy knows what hes doing - at least he did with my 1974 MGB. I will certainly let him work on my car again - when needed.Well done sir.

Been going to Charlie and Christian for probably 20 years and they keep my small stable of British cars running great: Lotus Esprit, Bentley Azure and Jaguar XJ6 . Parts and know how on these old but complicated cars is getting more difficult but Charlie always figures out a way to get a solution- might not happen overnight though! People are surprised how my 30+ year old cars operate like new. Thanks guys!

General knowledge

I just had Charlie work on my 2012 Range Rover Sport, and the experience was awesome. Charlie went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect – including offering to personally spray paint my brake calipers black to match the new black rotors. Good luck getting that kind of personal service at any local dealership. Bottom line - working with Charlie and Christian is a real pleasure. I highly recommend Charlie’s British Cars to anyone that wants high quality work at a fair price. I will definitely be taking my Sport back in the future. Thanks Christian and Charlie!!

Replaced my A/C on my RR for half of the price of the dealership and competitors. Just don’t bring up the Queen of England, it’s a touchy subject. Lol

Land Rover, jaguars, tr6, Bentley, Lotus, mini Cooper (real one).And mechanics are actually British, I love love it. By the way they advised me to buy a older Bentley because the one I want is prone to electrical problems, very honest, Thank you.

My husband and I brought our 69 Rolls into Charlies to get fixed for a minor oil leak. Charlie had our car for over 5 months. Each time we went in to pick it up, he would charge us for the work he just supposedly did and then would proceed to tell us about other things that needed to be fixed. Basically, when one thing got fixed the other thing would break. This happened 4 times before we realized what was happening.The final straw was when he was doing the brakes, we paid another thousand or so and when I got into the car to drive it off his property, he started to scream and reached into the vehicle and turned off the engine saying it was not driveable because the brakes werent all the way fixed. Huh? We just paid him to fix the brakes.Finally, we decided to leave this horrific place and experience behind after spending over 8k. We ended up going to Ludeks in south tampa on Gandy Blvd. Would you believe it took them a few hours to fix and it was $50. OMG. Never again. I felt like it was my responsibility to let others know of our negative experience at Charlies and our positive experience at Ludeks. Night and day.

Charlie, you are the man! he was very honest and up front (unlike everyone else) saved the thousands of dollars on my abs problem. Most people were telling me that my computer was bad and he figured out it was set for the wrong type of suspension. His labor rate was very fair and said that the light came back on to take it straight back to him and he would figure it out.

Please don’t bring rolls Royce to this mechanic shop. Stay away!!!!
