Mini repair shops in central NJ

Can anyone recommend a good mini repair shop in central NJ?

I just picked up a 2004 R50 with 160k miles (free!). Plan to give to my daughter as her first car, but I want to give it the once over with a trustworthy mini specialist.

Any recommendations?...thanks for your help!

Since it seems to be a rather fluid term, can you define what counts to you as "Central" NJ?

Yep! Had my brakes done by Dave last year. Good guy, straight shooter, excellent work. If he wasn't 1 1/2 hours away from me I'd probably go to him for regular MINI maintenance.

And yes, calling Lakewood central NJ is a huge stretch imo
