Mike is a really honest and nice guy, doing great work. Very knowledgeable about Saabs and will generally know what's wrong before he even gets to look at the car.

I have a 2000 Saab 9-3 convertible. My trouble started one evening when I unlatched my top to open it. Nothing happenned when I clicked the roof open toggle switch. I thought I was low on hydralic fluid but that was not case. Nothing I could do so I taped the roof leading edge for the evening. Next day, I went out to start the car, the car would start but would die right away. I changed the DI myself because I got spares. No luck. I changed the Mass Air Flow sensor, still no luck. I called Mike@Beacon. He told me I had to tow the car in but the earliest I could book would be a week away. I waited

Mike almost made me cry (happy tears). I have been searching for a 2008+ SC rear door everywhere for the last 2 years. I called them because someone online mentioned they were decently close to me. He had the door. Very cost effective. Very kind genuine Saab enthusiast. Definitely will be doing business with them again for anything I cant do.

My saab 93 steering lock would not lock so the car would not start. Had it towed to a "saab repair shop" in London. Where it stayed for 10 weeks when they finally said they couldn't do anything.
Made arrangements to tow it to beacon motors. Spoke with Mike. Jokingly i said that it should take an hour to repair, 90 mins after it arrived i get a call that it is running. Made arrangements to do other needed work as it had sat too long. It was all done the next day. Very happy to have the convertible back and highly recommend Mike and Beacon motors.

My Saab 93 wouldn't start this morning so I looked up Saab specialty shops in the area and this one was one of the highest rated so I figured I'd give them a call. The man who answered was very friendly and seemed to know exactly what was wrong with it and gave me an estimate over the phone. I then had my car towed over and his prior diagnostic was correct and it was actually less expensive than he had initially thought. They replaced a sensor and called me an hour later telling me it was ready to pick up. Great place to go for anything Saab related and I'm planning to go back here for all future

Honest shop run by true Saab enthusiasts. Very reasonably priced for quality of services provided. I've only had positive experiences with Mike and Beacon, with both of my 9-3s.

I'm a very satisfied customer of Beacon Motors for over twenty years, not a single visit where I did not feel that my vehicle(s) were being excellently maintained at a very fair cost. He has also been maintaining my wife's Audi for the past five years with equal satisfaction on our part. Mike Kerfoot runs a great business with great customer service and I have no hesitation in recommending his garage for any make or model of car.
