Today was our first day back from vacation. Took a couple of days down in Arkansas with the family and the Q7. Today was catch up for all the cars dropped off over the weekend. What did you all do on Memorial Day? Any trips in your TDI? Because of course a TDI is one of the best trip rigs...

Here's an introduction into a fun project we're going to do. I got a wrecked Mercedes 190D, and what's the best thing to do with that? Well... probably something completely unreasonable. 😅

The car actually runs and drives, has a clean title, and is too good to scrap — even if it currently doesn't stop right now. (Minor detail.)

So the plan? We're thinking:
• Mercedes Kompressor supercharger
• Maybe a turbo too, because why not?
• Suspension lift
• Bigger wheels and tires
• Roof rack and off-road goodies
• Fixing the brakes so it survives the first test drive
• Making all the lights work again
• And probably a bunch of questionable decisions along the way

Basically we're building a Gambler 500-style diesel Mercedes that absolutely nobody asked for... which makes it even better.

This thing is either going to be awesome or terrible. Maybe both. Stay tuned. 👀

This morning we’ve got this Audi SQ5 in for a very common repair on these Audi platforms… front control arms.

If you own one of these cars, chances are you’ll deal with worn control arms at some point — clunks, loose steering feel, uneven tire wear, and suspension noises are all common symptoms. The good news? My guys have gotten pretty efficient at knocking these jobs out and getting these Audis driving tight and smooth again.

Whether it’s maintenance, diagnostics, suspension work, or major repairs, we’ve got you covered. Give us a call if your Euro or Japanese import needs some attention!

There is something special about an old Mercedes Diesel, even though it's only 70 HP, can't get out of its own way, and doesn't like to start... This one is getting some fixing up to be ready for daily driver duty, and of course it needed this German plate to show why it's special... No worries about EMPs, these don't need electricity to run.

This 2022 VW Taos came in this morning for transmission programming after another shop replaced the transmission.
VW/Audi programming, coding, adaptations, module replacement setup — we can help with it.

What a beautiful car! Our tech Braden has a great eye for photography, and he grabbed this killer shot yesterday of one of the cars we had in the shop — a stunning Austin-Healey 3000.

At Anchor Motorworks, we specialize in European imports — including the oddball, rare, and hard-to-find stuff — while also servicing Japanese imports as well. From the boring daily drivers to the exciting weekend toys, we’re here for all of it.

They say random comes in groups. So, I guess it's random that three Mini coopers are in a row to be fixed...
