Owner and head mechanic Kevin is a humble mastermind of most European makes, models and eras.He continues to amaze me with his depth of knowledge on so many different types of vehicles, from vintage VW's and Jaguar's to newer Mini's and Audi's. I trust this guy and the stellar staff, like Ty to assess the situation, address the vehicle's needs and know how to communicate clearly and honestly about sensible options. I have taken multiple cars here for about a decade and have never felt like there was unnecessary work being pushed. This place is trustworthy and the culture is on point! Good people doing good work, without pretense or pressure.Also for what it's worth, I grew up in the car culture of Southern California and now live in Florida and NH and have yet to come across a garage that I trust as much to keep my cars in top shape without breaking the bank. European Auto Service is a gem and I look forward to many more years of having them as the place I know and value on many levels. The building might be worn with New English car character and seem like it's from another generation, but the functional sophistication of mechanical prowess on the shop floor is second to none!

Kevin is the absolute best. He is incredibly honest and knowledgeable. He goes above and beyond to help me out with my 97 VW eurovan. He has helped me out of many a jam - if I could give 6/5 stars I would! :) Also his employee Ty is just as kind and very helpful as well!

Had my timing belt on my VW TDI done here a few months ago. Not only was it the cheapest estimate I found, but the final price was actually a few hundred less than the estimate. Honest guys that know what they re doing. Only issue is that they are so good at what they do, it can sometimes be hard to get an appointment!

Brought my car in for a radiator, came out with check engine light on with my car being in limp mode. Didn t seem interested in fixing the problem eitherOutrageous price for the radiator as well , 360$???My SO was quoted a days work, turned into over a week with three days of no communication. We had to call to find out that it hadn t been started yet after a week. He worked on someone else's car instead of my SO. after an appointment and agreement was made. He let someone else go before him? And didn t communicate what was going on so my SO could to try to take his business elsewhere.AND DIDNT APOLOGIZEI appreciate people who let me know what s happening, not blindsided. Me and my SO are very understand until it rude and shady. Something seems off with this shop and I haven t had a good time like I thought I was going to, like everyone said this shop was amazing! Well we are very disappointedWe feel like we were not treated as good customers and put on the back burner. he was also reactive and disrespectful towards my SO.Genuinely saddened and disappointed someone could do this to a customer and not show any remorse.

The best thing that happened to my 1956 Volvo P444 was finding this very unique and competent shop.Kevin and Doug are truly professionals and know their way around a challenge that s for sure. Most people look at my car and say Whoa! That s WAY out of my wheelhouse! Brits Bits and several other people highly recommended Kevin and Doug.#integrity #skilled #talent

These guys are fair, honest and reliable. My Volkswagen Scirocco was well-cared for and lasted many years under their care. They are wonderful mechanics, and truly a joy to deal with. Don't go anywhere else, you'll love this place!

I have had a succession of VWs serviced by Doug and his team for over 20 years. They have always been very competent, friendly, and quite reasonably priced. They go the extra mile to solve difficult problems quickly and yet are sensitive to customer's often thin wallets. My current ('98) Passat has 183K miles and is in great shape. I recommend them highly.

Doug and his stellar team of foreign auto technicians are experts in every sense of the term. I have owned several "high maintenance" cars and Doug has expertly handled every problem that has come his way. In fact, a vendor in Portsmouth presented me with an estimate to repair my car - several thousand dollars. Doug took a look and informed me the work was not necessary and could be fixed for "a couple hundred dollars." Thank you Doug and Team International Auto for all you do.Janet

Great to find a team you can trust. Saved me thousands of dollars on a dealer recommended repair. The formula seems to be... treat customers with respect + honesty = lifelong business. Doug and Kevin now have mine!

I don't even know where to begin, my gratitude to these guys is overflowing...I chased an oil leak on my 1970 VW bus for, well, for too long. After pulling the engine for the third time trying to fix it, I figured it was time to take it to the professionals, which I generally try to avoid due to shoddy work, long turn around times, and the high fiscal commitment. Not only was Kevin (who is a VW god among men) able to diagnose the problem rather quickly, he thought outside the box and fixed it when anyone else would have given up and said I needed to spring for a new engine. Throughout the process they were very patient with my unending questions and were also very helpful otherwise (Kevin let me pick his brain about other various repair and maintenance topics). The price for the fix, I feel, was beyond reasonable and to say I HIGHLY recommend these guys is selling them short. These guys are incredible and could never thank them enough for getting my girl and me back on the road!!!Oh, and Kevin accurately tuned my carb by sound and feel; coolest thing I've ever seen!

After being told at a dealership that my BMW needed $4400 of work, We went to European to find that my beautiful little summer car is a "creampuff" and needs to be driven and enjoyed. Lifelong new customers!

Hands down the best garage to bring your Volvo or Volkswagen too. These guys know their stuff and will take the time to explain what's wrong. We have been going here for 20 years and have always been impressed.

Excellent garage. Took our 2.8 4motion to have a look over and diagnose error codes. Did all that excellently, they even cleared a couple of small niggles. Repaired seat mechanism and hood release.

Turned our repair around in one day (valve cover gasket replacement) Very reasonable pricing. This is now my "go to" garage for all future work on our BMW.

Almost got stuck, thanks to Doug such a amazing mechanic and person helping me out on his lunch break... My two girls go to North Hampton Elementary and my car started running like crap... I googled shops near me and these guys came up... Such a huge thank you again to Doug... Thanks for being there for me and my girls so I can get back home to Concord...
