ABOUT US
About Our Shop
A Local Shop Built on European Expertise
experience, craftsmanship, and genuine care since 2009
Located in Cedar Park, Texas, Lindsey Bimmer Service is a trusted independently owned automotive repair shop specializing in European vehicles, such as BMW, Mini, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, and Porsche. Founded in 2009 by Josh Lindsey, the business began humbly as a mobile repair operation focused solely on BMW’s before settling into its first brick-and-mortar location in June 2010. As the community grew, so did the demand for expert European auto care, leading Lindsey Bimmer Service to expand into its current, larger facility in September 2016 and begin servicing a broader range of European vehicles.
Today the shop is still proudly operated by Josh Lindsey, alongside the shop manager, Haleigh Reel, continuing its mission to deliver dependable, transparent, and high-quality automotive services. What sets Lindsey Bimmer Service apart from others is its commitment not only to technical excellence but to genuine honesty and customer trust. Our team understands that European vehicles can carry higher maintenance and repair costs, which is why we work with each customer to create realistic, thoughtful, and proactive repair plans – helping keep ownership enjoyable rather than overwhelming.
Lindsey Bimmer Service employs ASE-certified technicians with formal training and on the job experience from the leading European manufacturers. With years of specialized experience, advanced diagnostic capabilities, and a passion for European engineering, the team at Lindsey Bimmer Service ensures every vehicle receives the meticulous care it deserves.
Whether you’re maintaining a daily driver or preserving a performance-focused machine, Lindsey Bimmer Service strives to make every customer feel confident, informed, and excited about the road ahead.
