Customer Reviews
R&D has been our family's go-to for 30 years. Rick is an absolute wizard and I really appreciate the time he takes in explaining the how's and why's of the magic he works. There's probably no one on the Central Coast with more experience. No matter what car we bring in, they're always WAY more fun to drive after they've left R&D.
Best mechanic shop in town!!!! I’ve been burned by other places and coming here was like a breath of fresh air. Doug is great! They are direct, honest, and clearly explain costs. Echoing other reviews here that this will now be my go to shop. I totally trust these guys with my car. Shoutout to Oscar, best mechanic ever!
I am one of those people who moves from mechanic to mechanic because I don't trust the workmanship, and I usually feel as though there is some level of price discrimination occuring since I don't know as much about cars, etc. Now I feel like I've found my forever home (auto repair shop) when I bring my car to R&D Motor Sports! Doug is amazing. He explains the repair, calls to update when he says he will, and I have come to realize I have complete trust in using this company. For my last repair he recommended I bring my car to the dealership because the part that broke was still under warranty and Doug shared the documentation to make sure the dealership honored the warranty. I've been to so many mechanics in this town and I can confidently say this is the very best repair shop in Santa Cru
What a remarkable shop! I was facing a long drive and had an indicator show that a tire needed attention. AAA suggested R&D Motorsports. I was given royal treatment! The mechanic (I wish I had gotten his name) tested all of my tires, inflated them to the right pressure, drove the car to make sure there were no leaks, and detected a malfunction in the indicator. He did not charge me for that excellent service. I was able to drive back to Los Angeles without worrying about my tires. I wish R&D were in Los Angeles! The shop is spacious, very well equipped for service, and the expertise of the person who took care of my car is extraordinary. Thank you R&D
I'm so impressed by the repairs and service for my older VW GTI. She needed lots of work and Doug work was meticulous and he explained everything and it was all accomplished at an honest and fair price. Thank you R&D Motorsports!
