In the Sarasota, Bradenton, Longboat, Anna Maria areas, I can highly recommend Mike Tanzberger at TanzTech in Sarasota. You may recall Mike's name from another post of mine re: Paul's Automotive in Bradenton. Mike was Paul's Lead Tech and has opened his own shop in the Whitfield Industrial Park in conjunction with Ed Swanson, a premier Volvo Specialist.

Mike is a German Board Certified Master Mechanic whom I've personally utilized for my 107 and 129 and his work, by any measure, is excellent. Mike pays attention to the details, gets the diagnosis right the first time, repairs quickly and accurately the first time, charges the most competitive labor rates in the area, prices parts fairly, and most importantly, Mike is honest and trustworthy. If you want someone who cares about your car as much as you do, connect with Mike at 941-727-1363; I know you'll be pleased with the results.
