Berkeley Auto Repair

Great, fast service with a great team of professionals.

Friendly and honest

Was looking to buy a used Prius. Found a 2009, private seller, and set up an inspection at Model Garage to check it out. They were thorough in their inspection and took time to chat with me about used Priuses. Very knowledgable and helpful. I bought the car and am very happy with it.

As usual, outstanding service, that diagnosed the problem and allowed me to attend to it immediately.

honest, fair, and timely.

Model Garage has been taking care of my 1989 Toyota since it was new. I'm sure one of the reasons it has lasted so long is because I bring my car here for service.

I love Model Garage, first they are welcoming but more importantly they take care of my old Volvos, they keep them running and safe and not only that, they tell me when I need or not need to replace parts. I have a 70 Volvo which they maintained for many years and it still runs although I do not use it too often. I have a 79 Volvo which looks and works great and I use it every day. My new car is a 95 Volvo which my wife loves to drive. We calculated how much we paid Model Garage over the years to keep our cars in great shape: much less than trying to replace them, and we had much more satisfaction knowing our cars to work and be safe.

Totally excellent service. Thorough inspection of car, thoughtful prioritization of needed and optional repairs, accurate estimate and good problem-solving. Bruce is really good at explaining the why's and hows--making the experience educational and kind of fun. The best garage and service team I've ever encountered.

These fine folks have kept our 1990 Volvo going even now at 180K+. And our newer Camry's as well. The honest best, period. A customer for more than 23 years.
