Quality independents in CT for service

Doug,

I highly recommend Black Horse Garage in Bridgeport, CT. I used them on my 308, and my Testarossa is going in for a major in the next couple of weeks. They are experienced in many high end makes and models including Astons. Their rates are very reasonable ($95 an hour for service and $85 an hour for body work). Give them a call at (203) 330-9604 and ask for Mitch. Tell him I recommended you over.

Here is their web site: http://www.blackhorsegarage.com/

+1 for Black Horse Garage. They are exceptional.

 

Wow!!! ummm...I'll give him a $1k coupon, bring it to our Sunday Ferrarichat meets and we'll do it for $5k

 

I also have heard good things about Black Horse Garage.

Also, you might want to look into Vantage Motors in Stamford. They work on lots of Astons as well as numerous other exotics and several Ferraris, including my own. I have been very pleased with the quality of their work.

Ask to speak to Mike Kraljevic. This is a family run shop with Mike and his father and mother both involved. They have a pretty complete shop capability including paint, bodywork and upholstery in addition to the mechanical work.

 

Although they have not yet worked on my car I have toured the shop on 3 occasions and seen first hand some of the work they do. I must say they appear more than capable of just about anything from custom machining of unobtainable parts to simple oil changes. My 348 sports a Blackhorse license plate ring as the result of my tour. Don't be discouraged by the nieghborhood they reside in. (a little tough)
