New Vendor GT Peace Automotive

[TGGRRR (Ali)]

Welcome to our newest vendor

Here's the message I got when they approached us about being a vendor. It tells about them and why we want to embrace them as a vendor

 

We are a full service shop that works MINIs and many other makes and models. I worked at BMW/MINI sterling and was a shop foreman/ master technician. Shawn Peace was the lead service writer for MINI of Richmond and opened that store when MINI was first in the states. Then later he went to work at BMW/MINI of sterling from 2004-2014. We have a large flowing from the MINI community and more times then not have 5+ MINIs in our shop. You can check out our reviews at www.gtpeaceauto.com, Yelp, www.surecritic.com/reviews/gt-peace-automotive and check out our facebook page. I would like to talk to you more about what we can do for DC Metro MINIs, host car shows, tech time, and open house events to get you guys in the shop working on your cars!

 

 

 

They're offering 10% of parts and labor (nonperformance parts) and group buy services such as carbon cleaning @$399 and 1/2 price state inspections

 

As usual vendor benefits are for paid members only and you need to show your club membership ID for the discounts

Looks promising!

Shawn Peace was my SA for a while when I used to take my MINI to MINI of Sterling for service. Good guy.

Last night I called GT Peace and talked with both Sean and Galen! Looks like I've found a reputable shop that can tune my R53!!

Do they have ASE certified MIni techs or Mini/BMW techs?

[splat]

Their site says "our techs are all ASE certified Technicians as well as factory trained" - now I have to go google that to figure out what that means :-).

 

They checked my MINI out for me the week after I bought it (they do PRE-purchase inspections but I was too anxious to buy it so I did a POST-purchase instead) and they were really great. Galen put up with all my silly questions and pointed out safety things like my needing to go get a slime kit since I have non-run-flat tires. I was really happy to find a shop I can trust and omg their shop is so clean you can eat off the floor.

 

And make sure you ask to see the video of the surfing pig when you're there.

Took my R56 to them on Friday. So far i like the shop. Top Tech very knowledgable and their prices are reasonable.

Good to hear

I have an appointment for October 14th for a possible coolant leak. I'll be curious how everything goes. Nice to have a shop close to home.

They helped me with a oil leak before leaving for the Dragon. They checked out everything for me and did a great job. I would highly recommend them.

Don't even hesitate to go to them. They are the best shop I've ever dealt with. Galen is super accommodating, gives you the straight sh*t, gives more all the information you could ask for and then some, does the best quality work I've ever seen, and has better prices than most euro shops! Oh, they also have a few loaners they'll let you borrow while your car is in the shop. Though they are usually already taken.

 

Don't think about it. Just go there.

 

I have a personal rule to not put shop/vendor/manufacturer decals on my car. For GTPeace, I made an exception and asked them for a couple of window decals. No qualms about throwing them a bit of free advertising. That's how impressed I was with them.
