Grassroots garage closed any place else to go

I just moved to Randleman NC and need some work done on my MINI. I called Grassroots and got a message that it is closed...Does anyone know of someplace else to go...I'm trying to stay away from Flow...

Could it just be closed temporarily while he's at the October Dragon event? I saw his car up there on Friday.

If not, that's too bad. Dan's a great guy and a great Mini mechanic......

Got the Stage 1 power pack installed on Wednesday @ Sneed's. Damn, why didn't I do this sooner? The SC screams now! I guess I've never been in a MINI with these mods, I've only listened to them on YouTube. What a difference. The guys @ Sneed's were great! You can tell they enjoy what they do and MINI's/Bimmer's in general. I'll be bock! I told them I feel like the Geico Pig..........

Hey fellow MINI enthusiasts! My name is Chris and I wanted to reach out to you guys and let you know that there is a new shop in town called Luxury AutoWorks of NC. We are located off of capital blvd in raleigh. I have been working on BMW/MINI for 7 yrs and my partner has been with BMW for 5 yrs as well. We specialize in BMW and MINI but are also branching out to other brands such as Lexus and Mercedes Benz. I know MINI dealerships are far and few in between and can be a hassle. I have factory software (same as dealer) so I can provide the same service at a cheaper price. If some people want to do a group buy on Car Key Memory coding or programming or anything like that, I would love to work with you guys. If any questions should arise, please feel free to contact me. Thanks!!!

-Chris

We just moved from Atlanta to Waynesville, NC. Had two great shops for our 2005 MCS. It's time for a service. Is there a good shop in the Asheville area?

Any suggestions welcomed.

Every spring in May at MINIs on the Dragon you have Detroit Tuned, Way Motor, and Helix motorsports performing services that week. Plan your maintenance around that timeline and you have plenty of the best of the best to work on your car.
