This father son duo is truly what a mom and pop mechanic shop is defined as. They do their best and are constantly at their limits with the demand of this small town but pressure makes diamonds and all I see is gems. A lot of scrap cars come through here and give them a tough time but they keep it real and let you know every step of the process. If things aren t going to plan they have no reason to lie about it, good business attracts good business and they ve given me peace of mind on numerous occasions!

I can Not say enough about Reed and his son! They are the most genuine, Honest, knowledgeable, super nice individuals I have ever met, with the patience of a saint! They always find time to fit me in and never make me feel like a pain even though I know I can be. They are very thorough, speedy and most importantly trustworthy. I highly recommend this family to anyone in need of repairs to their car!

Reed and company have taken care of my 2007 Jaguar XK convertible twice this year. I am so pleased to find someone right in town. Driving to the Jaguar dealer was inconvenient especially when many issues on a car this complex take more than a day and waiting for parts. And his prices are significantly below the dealer. He has done everything from determining why it wouldn't start reliably although the battery was new to replacing a broken aerial and burned out brake light. Also got the convertible top opening properly so the summer was top down fun. Definitely recommend them.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Battery

Reed and his crew are old school professional people who simply know how to get the job done. I normally bring my car to the dealer but have found that Reed can get the job done for a much better price and on top of that is simply a nice person. I highly recommend Aquidneck Motors!Scott Nanfelt/Owner -Delken Companies & Del Nero CorpServices: Auto engine tuning, Brakes

Cracked my valve cover on my 1968 Mercedes Benz 200D.. completely destroyed my car and I paid to have injector nozzle tips put in $200 bucks.. now the job is being redone and we are questioning if he even put in the 4 nozzles. Injectors are really bad and in need of complete rebuild.. thanks for absolutely nothing.. now ignoring me and my calls. Also flipped out on me when I asked to keep my original valve cover he cracked and welded without my permission, after noticing this on my own, after paying my bill, I went back and made him replaced it with a used part but he got very angry when I asked for original part and would not give me a receipt for the work done at his shop.. Maybe because he did none? Now will not answer calls and is always out of the shop when I call! Thanks

I have been bringing my cars to Reed at Aquidneck Motors for more than a year now and have been impressed with his ability to diagnose and repair even the most challenging problems. I own a previously salvaged VW Eurovan that came with a laundry list of reasons why it couldn't pass the RI State safety inspection. He got everything taken care of and it passed inspection. The best part is it didn't cost an arm and a leg. Most recently, I had an illusive vacuum leak and the cracked breather hose was no longer available. He was able to repair the old part and now I'm back on the road.

I have to laugh when people accuse Reed of selling a "scam" car or of not working with them when something goes sideways, which can happen working on anything old, houses and older European cars in particular.If you want perfect, buy and drive a new, expensive, and more often than not these days, boring car.If you want to drive a nice car after someone else has driven the lion's share of the depreciation out of it, understand that the car will not be perfect, but it can be perfect to drive if you are willing to fix problems as they arise and do the preventative maintenance, and that is where Reed comes in whether you buy the car from him or not.Cars are inherently complex beasts. Add time and wear and figuring out the problem often requires disassembly and knowing where to look.Reed knows more about how old Mercedes, BMWs, Audis, Saabs, Land Rovers, and VWs (you name it) age and break than anyone I've met, and I am a car guy who has brought old cars to mechanics in 4 states.

This business is now closed. Didnt bother to call and tell me that my van, that has been sitting on his lot for a month waiting to be fixed, will not be serviced. Such a disappointment after all these reviews. Set me back weeks on my move to base in NC. Thanks guys .

This place is a scam offers good deals on cars that have major issues and say they have a warranty but it has to go through them.
