I am a former mechanic that absolutely HATES taking my car to a shop. The folks at Kings Cross are top notch! Nathan is a great service writer. He overcommunicates in the best way. Most shops don’t want to touch a 98 Porsche. Kings Cross jumped at the opportunity to diagnose the trouble codes. Even though they’re not a Porsche shop! They spent hours in research on a brand they don’t specialize in! Turns out that all the problems we’re caused by an old battery (embarrassing). So they didn’t charge me a DIME! They refused any payment! That’s next level honesty! They could have taken me to the cleaners. And, they gave me the most comprehensive vehicle inspection I’ve ever had. Better than the dealerships. Full documentation, photos, and a bit of humor thrown in. Note, I never said I was a good mechanic. Please note that they do have long lead times for appointments. But, now I see why. Book early if you can. 5 star service. They've got a customer for life. BTW, I was going to leave a 1 star because those are the reviews most people read. But, I couldn't bring myself to do that.

Kings Cross is what you get when you combine the highest degree of customer service with the mechanical precision required to service and maintain a huge range vehicles. I was kept informed and aware of the status of my old '76 Mercedes , the price, and the expected timeline, throughout the entire process. Fair prices. No surprises. Vehicle fixed. Kept informed at all times by their staff via text, email, or call. If you've ever wanted an auto shop you could have absolute faith in, Kings Cross is the place - you could not ask for more. Special thanks to Nathan, Morgan, Justin, and Kyle!

I have a 2016 mini cooper that needed a couple of things done. Most shops were giving me a month out date or charged absurd amount of money. With Kings cross I was able to make a same week appointment and get answers. They helped me make list prioritized most important. can say they’re by far the most flexible and kind people I’ve worked with. I couldn’t recommend them enough!

Great service & extremely through with my 2008 Land Rover LR3 SE V8 4.4L named BIG BLUE My vehicle is being extremely difficult for them to figure out/diagnose what, exactly, the issue is with an electric issue it's having. That's why I will NEVER get any vehicle that is fully electric, if 1 thing starts going wrong it'll be expensive & extremely difficult to find out what exactly is wrong & be able to fix it yourself, which is usually cheaper & the reason I'll NEVER own/drive a TESLA or an all electric BMW, if 1 battery in it dies you have to replace all the batteries in it, some have 3 batteries & they cost at least $100 - $1,000 a battery, that would cost at least $300 - $3,000. I'm unable to afford that, are you? I'll stick with my Land Rover LR3 SE V8 or another Land Rover that's like it, otherwise I'll go back to Subaru's that are 2015 or older, because anything newer has too many electric things to go wrong & electronics do not like me very well.

Hands down the best I’ve been to! The service advisor in the front, the woman I delt with, she’s amazing and knew more about what was going on than most! They did EXACTLY what I asked them to do, didn’t try to oversell me on anything, and were so polite and professional. I will most definitely be back, and I genuinely recommend them to everyone!!

Kings Cross is my number one service center. They take care of my Rolls Royce Silver Spur. From minor to very extensive needs , they have been meticulous, attentive to detail, professional and very personal towards us. They are experts with unique and complex cars like mine. The cost is adequate and always fair. Mike is the owner and a very pleasant and professional man, he personally made sure my Rolls is in perfect condition, they even have a 12 month warranty with very high mileage. Once he even rescued us when my Rolls didn’t want to start , that was after his shop already closed! Wow! My father in law takes his Jaguar there , same positive experience. Tomorrow my Rolls Royce is going for a little maintenance and a small repair and I am excited to know she will be perfect in a couple of days because of the expertise of Kings Cross!

I just bought my second Jaguar, and F-Type, and the dealership from which I purchased it could not clear a code after an oil change. I called up KCA and Brady told me to just stop by in the afternoon to clear it for me. They cleared very quickly and I was back on the road. Thank you for the great, speedy service! You have won my return business for the Brits in our garage!
