When my grandfather passed away he left me a classic European car that needed to be overhauled. I found out through a small community of collectors that this was the place to go. I am extremely grateful because these guys are top-notch.

I dont care what anybody says, being a woman and having to take your car to the shop is always a little bit disconcerting. You just never know what kind of treatment you are going to run into. You do not have to worry about that here, take my word for it. They treat you with respect regardless and will absolutely not rip you off.

European Motors was heaven sent for us; literally! We needed a Range Rover fixed that couldnt be repaired out of state where it resided. We had it towed just under 200 miles to have European Motors diagnose and fully repair the issue. From the start until completion they were very responsive and communicative all during the process. We are extremely pleased with working with Katrina and Chris. Our only regret is it took us this long to find European Motors existed!

Ive had a variety of European cars throughout the years and this is absolutely the one and only place I will bring my cars. From routine maintenance to major repairs theyre the only people I trust. They do fantastic work.

Very rare, for me anyway, to find an honest mechanic. European Motors provided me first-class service, fair prices, and worked quickly without cutting corners. He is also a certified Bosch dealer so he’s not putting just on my expensive car.

I loved the fact that not only do they do quality work but they will also educate you on how to really take care of your car and what to look for if any issues arise. They certainly know what they are talking about.

I was able to find my dream car. It is an older Lamborghini that was in decent shape but it needed a little work. I took it to European Motors and they ran a computerized diagnostic before they went to work and did a great job.

I recently bought my first Audi and was a bit worried about taking it in for general maintenance to just a standard shop. After doing a lot of online research I found European Motors. They impressed me the first time I went and I will most certainly be back.

Best in the area hands down. I brought Chris my Mercedes and he proved very knowledgeable. Not everyone works on these cars so when you find a good one you stick like glue.

I had the Jaguar out for a ride when I was side-swiped while running in for a coffee. European Motors is the only repair shop that I trust to take care of, fix, or repair my car. It was delivered home and the repairs were flawless.

My BMW is an older M3 series vehicle. But even with heavy use, it remains with high at performance and roadworthy. I have never missed installing the manufacturers recommendations for the highest performance.

When it was time for new brakes I rolled into European Motors to have them changed. I know that they use European ceramic brake pads and OEM brake rotors. I think they only use brakes that are of the highest quality.

I believe, “better to maintain than repair”. My Ferrari has been in the skillful hands of European Motors since the day of its first check-in for maintenance. European is the only place I would trust to keep her running at top efficiency.

I’ve been a loyal customer for as long as I’ve had my Saab. Chris does everything from routine maintenance to engine work and everything in between. He’s invaluable, honest, and trustworthy.

Chris has been my mechanic for years. I would never take my car to anybody else. He’s the best.

I absolutely recommend European Motors. We were having major problems with our BMW, a previous mechanic and the warranty company. We decided to get a second opinion and brought our car here. Not only was our car repaired correctly the first time, but Katrina went out of her way to help us figure out what the previous mechanic was doing wrong, and she handled all communications with the warranty company. Katrina is hilarious and an obviously caring person. She had me smiling within minutes despite of my aggravation and frustrations. Very pleased with the service and friendly enviroment at European Motors.

From the first encounter with European Motors till date they have always rendered exceptional services.

I had recently taken my VW to a large local VW dealer. The dealership told me that I would be looking at a 1,100-1,500 repair bill for the coolant system leak. European Motors said the problem was a coupling that just needed to be connected all the way. Wow...no big bill..just honest technicians!I would recommend this company without reservations! I will be using them for any issues that may arise in the future!

Like many, I also ignored the negative reviews and wrote them off as anomalies. Unfortunately, they were EXTREMELY RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL, and CONDESCENDING. Most of the good reviews must be fake. So I called the day before to have them work on my car and they said that they could take a look at it the next day. So I told them I would call back as soon as I get a tow set up. The next day I get a tow and I called them as a courtesy that my car would be there in 30 min. They said absolutely not, they have no space, things changed (no explanation), and they could not work on it for another few weeks (and that they could not store it inside or outside the building). They were not able to offer a simple explanation or apology all while being very nasty. They said I needed to make an appointment to bring the car in, but when we spoke the day before she made no mention that an appointment was required (only that they could look at it the next day). Their website evens says Walk-ins are welcome but we encourage a phone call first. Clearly, they do not care about their reputation and customers. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! For any legit car repairs/maintenance check out SLM or Cordel’s.

Chris worked on my 2005 Saab Aero Convertible. He is professional, highly knowledgeable, meticulous and honest. He took time to give me tips on vehicle maintenance. His prices for work done were very reasonable.He did an excellent job and I would not hesitate recommending him to work on Saabs.

Just stopped in for quote and advice.

These guys are very rude and unprofessional. This place is really very bad. Rip off, it’s all about money for them. I don’t get how they have 4 stars, there’s no way. 1 star as a compliment for them. Avoid them.

Chris and his crew are absolutely outstanding. I have been taking my cars to Chris for decades. Saabs, BMWs, Audi, Mercedes and now a Porsche. All work done right the first time and if I missed something, Chris let’s me know and we determine what to do. I trust Chris and his crew and consider them essential to my cars. I have never been disappointed. These guys know what they are doing and stay on top of the latest technology.

Have taken multiple vehicles (BMW’s, Audi’s, Porsche’s etc.) here over the years and received great work! Chris does a great job of explaining what is wrong with the vehicle and what it will take to fix it. He has also taken time to educate me on maintenance tips for my vehicles. Very reasonable on price as well!

Always great to work with this team. I always leave knowing the situation has been correctly completely and that any other concerns were brought to my attention.

I want to say that I can completely recommend Chris at European Autos! I was told at another place that I needed to replace my axle assembly, that the boots were ripped. As a woman in my seventies, this was unfamiliar territory. The repair would be expensive. I decided to instead trust Chris with my 2004 car for a new timing belt--which I did need-- and the new axle assembly. Imagine my surprise when I went to pick up the car and was told the axle repair was NOT NEEDED. When I anxiously asked if he was SURE, he pulled the car back up on a hoist and showed me the part. Even I could see that the parts were just fine. How EASY it would have been for him to just go ahead and do the requested repair. My faith is restored. He was so kind, patient, HONEST, and really knows his trade and takes pride in it. I wont go anywhere else.

I can do a lot of basic work on my three Volkswagens (2013 Beetle, 2017 Tiguan, 2005 Touareg). Whenever I get stumped or need heavy lifting I go to Chris. Recently I had Chris install all new brake rotors and pads on my 2005 Touareg (50K miles) and replace my timing chains and associated hardware which required pulling the engine. The VR6 motor in the vehicle is generally mounted transverse however in the Touareg it is forward facing which puts the timing chains against the firewall. So to repair and replace chains you have to pull engine. Lot of work and complexity replacing the dual chains. Bottom line Chris did a great job car runs and sounds again like a European sports car. The brakes are as good as when I drove car off lot in November of 2004. None of my VWs will go to the dealer for any repairs and will continue to use European motors.

Excellent no bullshit service. Some auto issues are even explained with a short video showing exactly whats happened! Invoices are clear/simple & prices are good . Thorough, well done work that always makes me feel confident of my car. Chris & Katrina offer the trust you want from a mechanic.

Been taking my vehicles here for years. Highly recommend! Very friendly staff. Quality work. Never had any issues. I dont have a European car anymore but I still use them for my Mazda and now my Ford.

Excellent service for your European cars. They will take care of you and provide a fair price for their personalized service. Highly recommended!

Honest service and great work!

The reviews of Chris being a jerk are in my experience true. He told me that my car (95 Jaguar XJS) wasnt worth his time. I told him that his time was what I was paying for. Perhaps he will deign to work on your car but I sure would not recommend him. Instead I took my car to Ed Cordell Motors. They are extremely nice people.

They did a fantastic and reasonable job fixing my car. They were super helpful and quickly fixed the issue. Would recommend to anyone in the area. And certainly would and plan to take my car back to them for any other mechanic work.

My 20-year old Saab--for the first time in the three years Ive had it--runs like butter. They worked within my budget, as well as with all of the inequities associated with my car. Drives more smoothly than I ever thought possible. And Im just as impressed as I am thrilled. Chris is definitely no-holds barred. But he sent me video and a detailed email of what they were doing. He and his team are hands-down the best youre gonna find in the area.

I have done business with Chris and Katrina for over ten years now. We have owned several Saabs, all of which have been bought from European Motors. Mechanical things can break down -- a fact of life. But Chris and his staff have the expertise to solve any problem and the common sense make it economical. Competence, attention to detail, and good value go hand in hand at European Motors. Their work is always done right and at a fair price. Thank you, Chris and Katrina, for ten years of service and support. Your work ethic, professionalism, and kindness are deeply appreciated.

Kris and Katrina have serviced our Volvo and BMW for well over 10 years. We have never had an issue and they are always fair and honest. Kris is incredibly knowledgeable and I always enjoy discussing car stuff with him, and Katrina is just downright fun! I would not take our BMW anywhere else!!!

Regularly use this business for maintenance of my vehicles. I trust the service.

Would highly recommend this place for mechanical work. Great customer service, Also very knowledgeable. Lastly very affordable

Chris did Belt work on my 09 Bmw e60 M5 so happy with his work and price.Thank you and i will always go to this place

I was a loyal customer of European Motors for over a year. When I first met Chris and Katrina I thought they were nice, honest small business owners. I ignored the negative reviews on the internet and wrote the reviews off as anomalies. I wish I would have listened to the warnings. I spent THOUSANDS of dollars on maintenance and repairs. I trusted Chris to diagnose and work my car, much to my regret.After my visit on December 8, 2016 (a couple weeks after spending nearly $800 there), Chris answered my questions with contempt and malice. EXTREMELY RUDE is an understatement. It was the last time I will ever do business with them. PLEASE trust me when I say, DO NOT GO HERE!I sincerely hope Chris gets the help he needs.

A relief to find a solid, competent European shop that honestly diagnoses and fixes your actual problem

Sad. Very sad. Reviews vacillate from one extreme to the next; either hot or cold.I took a chance and....mistake.Over priced...I should have gone to the dealership instead....not much of a savings between the two.

My husband car was in this shop for a diagnostic test we came back two days in a row before the posted closing hours and the shop was closed and we could not pick up our vehicle. Well today I go there well before closing time to pay for the diagnostic test so we could pick up our vehicle and as I am going to get my son out of our vehicle the wife of the owner slammed into us backing into our parked car. There was no apology asking if my 3 year old son was ok or if I was ok because of the impact. The owner was blaming me as if I forced her to back into us. The police officer advised us if this accident was not on private property they would have cited her for improper backing up. The police officer even advised for us not to do business there because of how they treated us. We will never do business here. EVER. Not to mention she left the scene of an accident and came back after I called the police again. Very horrible experience for me and my 3 year old son. Shame on you European Motors.

Never taking my car back there. Some of the worst service Ive ever seen. . My car had a busted tail light assembly, a disconnected bumper and a vacuum leak. They didnt even bother to fix the tail light or the vacuum leak. I didnt receive a single bit of information regarding the state of my car until we had shown up thinking that a relatively simple task that could be finished in under 2 hours would be done. I figured that because I had made my appointment a week and a half ahead of time that my car would be done that day but apparently not. They also tried to overcharge me 1000$ to fix something that would cost about 100$ to fix. The people were nice but I would not take my car back there.

Best service garage in town💯!! Wonderful service, extremely informative, they go above & beyond to ensure a happy customer!! Family owned & operated & they treat guests as one of the family which puts a smile on my face & warms my ❣️

Great shop for your european vehicle. Not sure why others are posting about rudeness. Chris and Katrina are the nicest people. Chris is very thorough with his work and have had nothing but top quality with what needed done. I even had a headlight out and he replaced it for me at no charge. Didnt even bring it up. I didnt notice it until a few days later. Ive dealt with all the european auto shops in town and around the area and this is by far the best. Prices are better (I did the research for various work I needed done) and work is quality. Wouldnt take it anywhere else.-2004 Saab 95

Never brought my car there, but when enquiring via phone what it would cost to have my spark plugs changed in my 2012 E350 Mercedes, I had a female on the line, but I heard Chris in the background say tell him to go to hell. This is no joke, it happened. Eventually Chris came on the line and in a I don`t want your business tone, did give me a price. Seemed very rude and disinterested in working on my Mercedes. I won`t be going there.

Absolutely the rudest people I have ever encountered!!!!! Do not take your car here!! If I could have put a zero in I would have. I should have listened to all of the other posts but these people are crooks and need to be shut down!!! I have never been talked to like this before in my life. Now I get it why everyone informed me not to take my car there. STAY AWAY FROM THEM!!!!

They did a great job on my mercedes c300 highly recommended!

On December 26, 2016, needing to first drive to Lincoln to get my grandson, then drive to CHADRON Ne --about 500 miles away one way, for a weeks visit, an hour before leaving, my Saab had a high-pitched squeezing sound from the motor when starting. The noise came again when doing an errand nearby. Uneasy about starting a long trip (CHADRON was also having a blizzard), I drove straight to European Motors with little time to spare (and with hotel reservations in North Platte that now cannot be cancelled) to check this squealing sound. Luckily I did! There was no way to make that drive! There were two problems diagnosed. Since it was Dec 26th I was not likely to find a car to rent with little notice. I explained my situation. Amazingly, after discussion with his wife, Katrina, Chris lent me his own Saab, after quickly checking all fluids, while I transferred my suitcase and packages to the trunk. He then took it for a quick spin and it was ready ON TIME to still make the planned pick up of grandson in Lincoln and hotel in North Platte. Once on the road, I noticed Chris had filled the gas tank during the spin!! How many technicians do you know who actually CARE THAT MUCH about your situation and needs to lend their own Saab after Christmas for a trip adding 1,000 miles and for a week!!? I am so grateful. When I returned, my Saab was repaired and running fine.This was not the only time I can describe such caring service. I live in an apartment complex with a parking garage under 3 floors. Shortly after buying my used Saab it started honking on its own TWICE during the day at work and I realized, the second time, near 5:00 pm, that I would be in trouble--possibly having it towed away--if it started honking again at the apartment during the night!! With little time to spare, I called European Motors (as they close at 5:30) and was relieved that I could bring it in, and was given a loaner for the following day. I am sure the vast majority of technicians in Omaha, IF they were answering that end of the day phone call, would not have been so accommodating!!European Motors not ONLY takes care of your car, Chris and Katrina genuinely care about YOU THE DRIVER and your situation--very helpful and relieving your stress! They go way above and beyond to meet your needs! Katrina is so cheerful, warm, and pleasant. European Motors treats you like family--caring about your safety, and relieving your stress, not just a repair service where you get a number and a seat. The work is diligently performed. The problem is discussed; options given; estimates made. I recommend European Motors: excellent service WITH A SMILE AND A HEART!!!

Chris was the rudest mechanic ive ever delt with. He spoke as though my business wasnt worth his time and attempted to oversell my wife on things that didnt need to be fixed. I ended up doing the work my self and saved the money. Dont even waste your time dealing with them id rather got to the dealership and get overcharged there at least theyre nice and theres free coffee!

I recently purchased a used Saab from the owners of European motors. Three weeks after, the Check Engine light came on. Fearing that my recent purchase was going to be costly,I turned it over for the necessary repairs. They reassured me that it just needed a software update, which they did free of charge. After taking it home, I popped my hood to refill the windshield wash and lo and behold, the Direct Ignition and other parts which were working, but slightly worn out were replaced with genuine, brand new parts, probably costing hundreds of dollars. If that isnt service, I dont know what is. Just because they arent the cheapest mechanics out there, doesnt mean that their service suffers. And if you trash your cars, they will let you know. Think of it as a favor more than a critique.

I have been a client of European Motors for 8 years. It is important to me to pass along a compliment when deserved. During the course of the past 8 years I have been very blessed to have the team at EMS looking after me my family and our automobiles. Chris, Katrina and their team have earned my business time and again with their tiring work ethic, superior expertise, friendly customer service, and highest level of integrity.I have entrusted Chris and his team with all of my vehicles: Aston Martin DB4, BMW M5, BMW X5, Audi A6, Detomaso Pantera, and each of my current and previous Porsches. Not once have I felt the job was too much or too complicated a job for them to handle. I have found their wide range of expertise on all marques to be nothing short of incredible. One instance found me at the shop with a problem on a 2013 jeep grand Cherokee srt8 which the dealership I purchased it from was unable to diagnose, it took the crew at EMS 10 minutes to identify and diagnose.My only complaint with EMS is I find myself feeling guilty at times watching the labor they put into my projects.. I have seen Chris put in 20 hour days to get me on the road, even if it is only for a car show or event. You dont find this kind of dedication often.As a car guy who loves his vehicles, I feel so very fortunate to have EMS in town to handle my automotive needs. I have referred many, and will continue to do so in the future.Trent J. Abbott

Great place

Please avoid this place. I made the mistake of going back a 3rd time, to be treated like a criminal or a thief. The woman especially made me feel like I was wasting her time. Chris checked out my problem, got angry about a part he had put in a year ago, handed me my keys and told me to get out. I had no idea what he was talking about. He ran away from me when I asked for an explanation!!! In my 2 previous visits, I know I paid way too much, but did it anyway. Its only a matter of time til they go broke with this kind of customer service - in fact, maybe thats why they are so rude.

Called to get parts for my car and they was rude from the get go. They asked what parts I needed and right away was like no. Wouldnt recommend them.

Overpriced and shoddy work and bad diagnosis
