Angel is very expensive, and I've had to take my car back to him for the same problem more than one time. He's a nice person, but I might as well go to the dealership for repairs. read more

By far one of the most honest shops i have been to! Angel is a great mechanic he never leaves you hanging and gets to the problem with out going around the bush, hes very fair in his pricing and just knows what he's doing, i needed his help he came right away to my location with the right computer and solved my issue quick. I have gone back to him many times and will continue to use him. If your looking for the best don't mess with the rest take it to Angle! Bakersfield City Towing Jim read more

I haven't been here in a while, but from my experience in the past with Angel, he is the best mechanic I've ever had. He is very thorough and will tell you what the whole car really needs, and though it might seem expensive at first, he always turns out to be right. read more

The alternator in our BMW was dead halfway through a roadtrip from Sac to LA with my wife and three kids. I couldn't find any BMW repair people near Lost Hills so we had our car towed to Angel's in Bakersfield after finding his shop on Yelp. His team did a kick ass job in getting our car back on the road within a few hours. He promised that if we got our car in by a certain time that he could be finished that day. This was important for us because I had a conference to get to the next day and had hotel reservations booked. We ended up arriving with the tow at his shop twenty minutes late, but he still did his best to get our car fixed in a timely manner. He did the alternator, battery, and even replaced a cracked expansion tank that would have been a $2000 problem down the road. He went out of his way to get us back on the road, he worked on our car until almost 8PM! His shop was small and super clean. His team was working on at least five e39s on the lot when I was there. Everyone was nice. He warranties his work too! I highly recommend this repair shop (probably better than some of the Indys in Sac). read more

My experience each time I come has never been great. While the initial issue may get fixed, I find my car always seems to leave in a little worse if condition. I'll notice something is lose, or an additional scratch has been added, or my seats end up with grease or stains on them. Based on my experience, they don't pay attention to details and don't have a high standard for quality. If you really care about your car and want good top notch work done I would stay away. While Angel is a nice guy I just don't trust the work he does. read more

I had a great experience at Angel's. They do BMW and Mini Coopers. My Mini broke down over the grapevine while on my way to norcal, and I was towed to Angel's. They were a great help and didn't try to nickel and dime me at all. It made me feel better that the shop was clean and there were plenty of newer and older BMWs on the lot. Just to be clear, this is a small independent shop, but still great. It ended up that I would have to tow my Mini up to NorCal for insurance purposes after Angel gave me an estimate. But Angel waved the $90 estimate fee and wished me well. I appreciate their service and help! read more

I just picked up my car from Angel's. Great service, price as estimated, timeframe as promised and she runs like a dream. Very consistent I won't take my BMW anywhere else. read more

I came to buy a car part from the owner. I asked him if it was OEM and he claimed it was. When it arrived it was clearly not OEM, but I didn't have much choice since I needed the part. Installed the part, instant coolant leak. I installed a used OEM part and it fixed my problem. I would not suggest buying parts or service with these guys. If you don't know much about cars you will be taken advantage of. He wouldn't accept a return either. Not an honest guy. I'd recommend going to Bakersfield Motor Works read more

$1,850 repairs to eliminate overheating 2/9/12. Car still overheats.... thanks for the poor job and acting like I don't exist when I return to have the repair completed. read more

Yeah here it is..... my AC repairs cost me over $1100. 1st visit cracked hose replaced and freon charged $600+. 2nd visit connection hose repaired and replaced. Freon recharged $500+. I was told that since the current repair was missed initially labor would be waved. Not! Given reason that my modification on car caused the damage. 3rd and final visit outside temp sensors in bumper replaced $193. Uhm......did not sound right. I contacted an experienced Mini Cooper Specialist: Motoring Magic who stated the price on parts are close to accurate. However, the repairs were questionable. Outside temperature sensor has no affect on AC function. I got played. The modifications on my car should have no affect on the AC parts. Now my clutch needs repair. Don't think so. read more

Money hungry place. Wanted to charge 98$ to pull code (check engine light). Can you imagine what things they make up just to get few extra $$$. read more

Small but clean place. Angel was really nice as is his staff. He seemed to have given me a fair price for maintenance unlike MINI service centers where they charge you an arm and a leg. So glad I found this place. Beats driving to The nearest MINI service center which is in Calabasas! read more

Angel always gives me a quote never repairs without an ok. I have never had any problems with his repairs. He is fair and very nice.

Car died on Hwy 5 near Bakersfield returning from the SF area. AAA and I decided to go to Angel's Independent BMW on K Street, Bakersfield. Angel gave me an estimate for my repair, I called my regular repair shop and the estimates were comparable. The shop finished the job in reasonable time so I could get back on the highway and return home. For a woman driver, this was fabulous. The personal service, team and financials were great. I recommend Angel's shop to you. read more

Angel and he's staff are the best!! Best prices and fast and great work!! Best of all though is Angel is super cool and very honest!! I'm telling you guys this is the only place to go if you have a problem with you car!! read more

I've been coming to this shop for over he past 3 years for my 2008 135i and have to say that this is the best shop that I've dealt with. The local BMW dealership has damaged my car on two separate occasions after taking it to them for service. The first time, they slammed my driver door and caused the window to fall into the door. Then they had the nerve to say my door was already faulty and held me responsible to fix myself. The 2nd time, I took it to he local BMW dealership to replace my timing belt. Needless to say that after repairing the belt, one of the pulleys ended up cracking all the way through and had to be replaced. Angels is the only shop that I have not had any issues with aside from getting a loaner. All other shops have either over charged for similar work or did a crappy job all together. I definitely recommend Angels BMW. My 135I currently runs like it's brand new thanks to these guys. read more

Very professional, quick and reasonably priced. I had an appointment to get my headlight replaced but was almost an hour late because I couldn't get out of work on time. They were very nice about it and told me to still come on in. He took my car in immediately. I'll definitely be back for any future repairs!! read more
