Recently had my Saab Aero 93 serviced at Swedish Motors for the first time. Hunt was professional, told me exactly what needed to be done and charged a fair price. I will definitely bring my other car (Volvo) to Swedish Motors.

Armen and Hunt provide excellent service. They are trust-worthy, honest and go above and beyond. I have been taking my 96' Volvo to them for a few years and have always been impressed with the quality of their work, and their prices are unmatchable! One time I needed my windshield fluid compartment fixed to pass inspection and they fixed it but also went out of their way to take my car to an inspection place! They are friendly and are sure to get your car in right away! Highly recommend.

I recently purchased a Saab 9-3 from an existing customer of Hunt's. Despite the fact I didn't even own the car yet, Hunt answered all my questions and was completely honest with the state of the car and the cost of repairs. As the name suggests, Swedish Motors are Saab (and Volvo) specialists and are ultimately more familiar with these cars than any mechanic in town. Plus great customer service? It's a no brainer.

I simply can t say enough about this company. the service and knowledge at Swedish Motors is what sets them apart from other shops. I don t even have Swedish cars! Armen and his Team have been servicing my Mini Cooper and Mercedes C300 since their warranties expired a decade ago. Thanks to them, both cars are running like new still. They are honest - let you know what needs to get done and what isn t absolutely necessary. Very very reasonably priced, knowledgeable, service oriented to the nth degree, and super fast.....Just a joy to do business with. I highly recommend Swedish Motors to anyone looking for superior service and expertise.

My family and I have been going to Armen's for over 10 years. This is a reliable and trustworthy place to get any of your cars serviced. The superb service is always accompanied by friendly and prompt customer service. I would highly recommend Swedish Motors for any car services.

AWESOME!!! Armen is a master mechanic and troubleshoots my Volvo with ease. No need to return to the shop to have them fix what you brought it in for originally. I can t speak highly enough about Chris & Hunt who work there also. This group is very accommodating & understanding. They are aware that I can choose to have my car serviced anywhere & I am treated like I am their only customer. I challenge you to give them a try.

The service Armen and Hunt provide at Swedish Motors in the Boston area cannot be matched. They just worked on my Audi and it is running so smoothly now that they fixed the breaks and changed the tires, it practically feels new. Servicing Audi's is not cheap and Armen and Hunt came in around $700 under what they had originally told me the cost would be. I was amazed and will absolutely be going back as long as they are around. I would recommend them to anyone!

I can t say enough about these guys! So lucky I found them. I had a catastrophic engine failure and their price and professionalism transformed a horrible experience into a pleasant experience. Hunt and Armin know their stuff and we re very helpful finding the best priced replacement engine and installing it for a totally fair labor cost. I will bring my Volvo to them anytime it needs service and can not recommend Swedish Motors highly enough.

Swedish motors and Armen are the best Volvo and Saab mechanics in Boston by far (I actually had them work on a couple Toyotas over the years as well and they did great work). They are honest, reliable and will never suggest repairs that aren't necessary. I have been taking my 2007 xc70 to them for many years and my Saab before that. The cars have always run perfectly and for a very long time!

Armen is simply the most experienced and honest mechanic I have ever had service my cars. For the 20 years I have known Armen, he has always kept my Saab 900 Turbo, Saab 9-5, Mercedes ML320, and my BMW X-3 running perfectly. My newest car, a 2015 BMW 428-xi is now in his reliable hands. His knowledge, fair prices and helpful manner takes all the stress and guesswork out of car repairs. I have recommended him to all my friends, who have recommended him to their friends. That says it all. He is the best!Richard Flanagan -Jamaica Plain

Just a word on a great automotive repair shop. Swedish Motors has delivered expert care on my Saab and Volvo consistently over the past ten years. Always finding ways to save cost. Armen and Hunt are five star in my book!

I've been a customer of Hunt and Armen's for a few years now and I can say if you've got a Saab (or anything, really), you've absolutely got to come here. These guys are true car lovers, of the Click and Clack variety, and will take great care of your vehicle. Excellent, personal service, always good advice and fair prices, and effortless communication. They know the best business is repeat business, and they'll have mine as long as I've got a car they can service.Google Maps doesn't know how to lead you to them though, so here's the trick - plug 198 Naples Road into your GPS; when you get there look down the alley and you'll see their sign. You can also get there off Fuller St.

Swedish motors is reliable, honest, efficient and fairly priced. Armen is knowledgeable and gives great advice. I serviced my former aging Volvo with them and they kept it going....when I traded it in for a newer one, I have opted to stay with Swedish Motors for oil changes and servicing rather than go to the dealer. Swedish Motors was recommended to me by a friend and I have since recommended them to other friends.

I have had my Saab 9-3 Viggen for over a decade, and always struggled to find a mechanic I trust. A friend recommended Swedish Motors recently, and I wish it happened 10 years ago. After my first visit, I knew I trusted these guys, the personalities and knowledge was perfect. After a number of visits, I am writing a review because they have really proved it. They have taken care of me and my car with the attention and kind of customer treatment you dream of. TOP NOTCH. Customer for life.

I m a recent transplant into the Boston area, and had no idea where to bring my Saab. Hunt and his team were not only beyond friendly but brought my 9-5 back to life. Highly recommend them! Honest pricing, great work, no reason to look elsewhere.

Great service. They take great care of your car. I have been using them for over 5 years for care of my aging Saab convertible. They seem to care about my car as much as I do. Their prices seem to be fair and they don't pressure you to do more work than is necessary. They always call and let you know how much it is going to cost before they do the work. They are gentlemen and it is a pleasure to do business with them.

There are no better options for service and repair to your European car. I found Armen and Swedish Motors after using many different mechanics from small shops to dealerships over the last 40 years. These guys are the most knowledgeable, most punctual, and reasonable. I will not use anyone else going forward.

Swedish motors provides great service. They have been my go-to for my Volvo car maintenance for at least 4 years. Hunt and Armen know their stuff and are straight shooters. Like any good mechanic, they know you will be coming back for years so they don't try to upsell. You don't stay in business for 25+ years in Boston by being bad at your job!

I have been going to Swedish Motors for about 10 years. I started taking my Saab and was so impressed with the service and price that I took my Lexus to them as well. I never feel like I am being taken advantaged of when I bring my cars in. On more then one occasion I thought I had real problems and they were able to sort them out for a fraction of what I thought it would cost. They don't focus on the most expensive fix but the right fix and that makes me feel really comfortable bring my cars there. Thanks Armen and staff!

I have been dealing with Swedish Motors for over a decade, because they are honest, reliable and cost-effective. Their hourly rates are much less than any dealer, and they work hard to perform only what needs to be done. And very efficiently. They have been lifesavers for my Saabs...and I know they will do as good a job when my last Saab dies and I replace it with a Volvo!

We've taken our cars to Swedish Motors for years and we are always completely satisfied with work and service. Armen goes out of his way to take care of us, and when we tell our friends about his service they can't believe it. Always reliable and prices very competitive. Car runs great when we get it back. Even if you have a mechanic you really love, you should consider switching. If you're at all unhappy with the service you're getting now, you should definitely check him out. You won't be sorry.Steve and Maura

I have a 2004 Volvo with 240,000 miles on it. Armen the owner is honest and only does the work that your car needs. He has answered his personal cell phone for me in an emergency and has always given me the car back in a timely manner. He cares not only about the car he works on but the people that get behind the wheel. Rare trait in his line of work. I wouldn't recommend anyone the way I would recommend Armen and Swedish Motors.

The team at Swedish Motors is top notch. They may not be the cheapest garage in town, but when it comes to something as important as a vehicle it is definitely worth paying extra for the thorough, professional service they provide. I also love that the shop is across the street from the Packard's Corner Green Line Trolley station. It saves me the extra headache of having to get an Uber or Lyft ride back home when I am having my car serviced.

When I moved back to the Boston area, I used to have to drive an hour west to the dealer to get something as simple as an oil change because I could not find any reliable place near me.. I was doing this for almost 10years!My friend, who has the same make car as I do used to have a Volvo she would bring to Armen, and then asked if she could bring her new car (non Swedish) to the same location.I took her advice, and could not be happier. Armen's work is exceptional! He and his staff are friendly, courteous and fair. He always has a flexible schedule to work around, and I'll save anywhere from $20-$50 each time I bring my car in.I highly recommend Swedish Motors, and the location is very convenient.

Armand has been keeping my 850 Volvo wagon in great condition for over 5 years. I come back because his prices are reasonable and he is honest, even telling me at times that no work needs to be done. Having taken cars to many garages around the Boston area over the years, I can say that a place like this that is both honest AND reasonably priced if very hard to find.

I have been going to Swedish Motors for years and find their service to be excellent. They don't replace things that don't need to be replaced and I have the confidence that my car will continue to be reliable. It's great to be able to have a personal relationship with your car mechanic.
