Sandy has worked on my Saab 900s since 1992.  He worked on my new one at the 

Saab dealership in Greensboro.  Since then I have had four more 900s, Sandy 

is the only one that has worked on them.  Sandy knows Saabs!!!!  He is very 

reasonable priced and does what he says he will do.

Joe's Autoshop is primarily a Jaguar repair place. There are lots of

Series III XJ models laying around. Sandy Bullins, Joe's son repairs Saabs

on the side. His full time job is at a local dealer. He allows you to use

your own parts and doesn't charge much for labor at all. I was charged $80

in labor for a job which included changing the rear motor mount, the

dogbone mount, the charcoal canister and the pollen filter. He is an

extremely nice person and is willing to help. I tried actually to give him

more, and he wouldn't accept it. Try him out if you live in the

Greensboro/HighPoint/Winston Salem area. Leave a message with his dad at

the shop with your # and he will get back with you.

Read about Sandy on the Saabnet mechanics list and decided to call him about

some oil leaks on a 96 900SET I had just purchased. Very nice guy. Diagnosed

the problem, invited me to watch and learn about Saabs, fixed the problem,

and came in below his already low estimate. It doesn't get any better than

this! I highly recommend him!

More on Sandy Bullins. He has serviced three 9000's and one 9'3 since 1995

for our family. I have never had anyone diagnose, remedy and explain

mechanical problems with anywhere near the skill and expertise of Sandy. I

trust Sandy and his ability to keep us safe, operational, and satisfied, all

at a level that is exceptional, while charging exceedingly reasonable prices.

He has maintained our new Saabs and also has been challenged with a used Saab

we bought which was in terrible condition. Rarely does one have complete

confidence in someone's ability and integrity, so, wherever you are, it is well

worth the drive, for both you and your Saab, to seek out Sandy Bullins.

The shop is owned and operated by Rick Hudspeth and has two additional mechanics.

North Point Motors is located in the north area of Winston Salem off Highway 52

Andre at Patterson Performance helped me fix a ruptured power steering pump that 

broke while we were travelling. He saved me hundreds of dollars (they had a used 

one in the shop) and gave me priority over his other jobs to get me back on the 

road. Based on my experience I'd recommend them to anyone. The shop is close to 

the 440 beltway and Capital Boulevard.

Very talented owner/mechanic that can fix just about any Saab related

problem.  Have brought my 86 9000 to him several times in a pinch and he

always manages to fit me in.  Seems to allow customers to supply their own

parts and is quite helpful to all his customers and their families.  Closed

weekends.  Jose is Costa Rican and is fluent in both espanol and ingles.

Dennis Bennett is the owner/master tech and I was very pleased with his work.

He loves SAABs just like us...it's that simple. He made it very convenient

for me to drop off and pickup my car. He was also very honest, he did not

make me pay for things my car did not need.

I got a 1995 saab 9000 turbo with a bad knock in the engine. I called Sandy 

and asked him how much to replace the engine if I got the engine myself, and 

he quoted me a great price. During every step of the new install Sandy allowed

me to watch and even assist in all aspects of the work. I've been driving the 

car for about six months now without any problems what so ever with the engine. 

I'ver even had several other problems with the car which sandy diagnosed and 

took care of. I would highly recommend Sandy to anyone with a Saab. These cars 

a little testy and need to be taken care of properly and Sandy does an excellent 

job of that. I'm a firm believer if you take care of your Saab It will definitely 

take care of you and give you long years of enjoyment. I'll never take My Saab 

anywhere else. As long as I own a Saab Sandy will be my Mechanic.

Russ & Cathy Cleaton have provided me with excellent personalized service

for a little over a year now. Russ is an outstanding technician, who isn't

afraid to admit that he doesn't know everything. Russ's philosophy is "If

it isn't broke, don't fix it". He typically will diagnose a problem then

contact the owner for discussion *before* he makes the repair.  Russ has

repaired many small items for me gratis. I applaud these people and their

efforts and highly recommend and support them.

Superb caring service from their crew of 4 SAAB Master Mechanics... no detail

overlooked... attuned to the loyal SAAB owner and enthusiast... repairs

without surprises... profoundly pleasant experience... family owned and

operated... makes owning a SAAB or 2 or 3 a very viable long-term option in

this community!
