Redline cars

After I recommend you. Ian you might not know who I am but we will certainly not be doing so again and no more referral. Over a simple bonnet cable. Poor show indeed. Happy to delete this with explanation.

AVOID this place if you want things done right with precision and if you don’t want things that were ok to be broken!! We went to ask for diagnosing a strange noise which we expected to be some pulley/tensioner/etc., and they said that it was the drive belt tensioner. Ok. The owner quoted original spare part 219€ (pretty expensive). Then afterwards in another call: 119€+50€ for an hour of work. Just he didn’t say it was OEM (AllMakes); even more expensive price for OEM. So they have hefty margins. We had no choice as we needed the tensioner repaired, so we went back the next day when the part was there (and only then saw that it was the OEM part). When they changed the tensioner, we asked thrice (!) shouldn’t the belt be also changed (as we had a new spare with us and the one in the car was already pretty worn out). Guy said, no it’s fine. He installed the new tensioner; the noise was still there, only then he said that yes the belt needs changing… Ridicilous. We also asked him to take a look at our bonnet which kept popping open on bumps, and asked him to adjust the striker, but he started digging on the bonnet cable with a screwdriver and said that the problem is there. We believed him, so we didn’t intervene. But he didn’t get anything done to it, then just suddenly refused to do anything to it anymore (!?). In the next morning we noticed that he had actually cut the bonnet cable and it was now broken!! No wonder why he suddenly ceased doing anything to it anymore! We went back to the garage and asked him to fix what he had broke. We also spoke with the owner on the phone several times (in English). He argued that the ”cable was rusty”, etc., no it wasn’t; we had also sent him a picture of it where anyone can see that the cable was not rusty at all (that picture is attached here, too). They still refused to replace the cable they had broke! We would’ve needed to pay for a new part and labour. Outrageous! So we naturally didn’t want them to do anything anymore (originally would have also wanted a basic maintenance) as they and their ”skills” clearly could NOT be trusted! If you want things to be done properly GO ELSEWHERE AND AVOID THIS PLACE! NOT worth your time nor money!! Owner also blamed language barrier. Yes, we don’t speak much Spanish (only basic skills), but there was another worker who could have translated everything (British guy), when we said in Spanish to the other guy working on our car that we don’t understand everything what he said to us. ”Conveniently” a lot of things were then not told to us despite us telling that we don’t understand everything. So make your conclusions, do yourself and your car a favor and go elsewhere!

Son muy buenos profesionales 😁

When you're far away from home and all that is familiar to you, it's very stressful when your car develops a fault or breaks down. The breakdown services are mostly good, they do their best to help p[eople and get on their way. But, if at home, you are very particular about who you let diagnose & repair your car then you just know you're in for a nightmare. NOT SO here and NOT this time! We only use Land Rover specialists in the UK. They know more than the Main Dealers do (especially on older models) and they care more about getting things right. The suspension developed a fault. Now that's just going to be expensive no matter what, but if it's not repaied by someone with knowledge specific to the complex suspension systems LR have created, the cost can get out of hand fast ... and the repair go from bad to worse. Ian and Juan were excellent. It was obvious from my first phone that this was an unexpected gem of a repair shop to find. LR specialists!? That's an understatement describing these two. I an's business has spare parts that I bet hardly anyone - if anyone - working for the manufacturer even knows did or does exist. It's like walking into Aladin's Car Cave ... for Land Rover. The garage is rammed with half-built cars, cars in for repair, thousands of spare parts including wheels ... you can hardly move for it all. But funniliy enough, it's the chaos your eyes meet that brings so much comforth in the feeling, yes, yes this is the place where they know exactly what's in an LR car's make-up, how each bit works and how to fix those bits that don't. They know this about every model since LR's were created. Our suspension was fixed, fixed fast and with a smile. What an absolute pleasure to meet and talk with such craftsmen, REAL mechanics (none of those in Main Dealerships today). So glad I now know about and can tell other LR owners about, Redline Cars, Estepona ... Ian and Juan. Brilliant in every respect.

I highly recommend Ian & his team for Range Rover / Land Rover. I've been using him for years after truly terrible experiences with Salamanca, Marbella.

Redline Cars Estepona impresses with high-quality service and exceptional Land Rover expertise. The team's in-depth knowledge ensures your Land Rover receives top-notch care. A reliable destination for automotive excellence, where precision meets passion.

Excellent Land Rover garage. 100% authentic and very knowledgeable. Ian knows Land Rovers, upside down, inside out and back to front. Always willing to listen and help. Always managed to pin point various problems my vehicle has had successfully and more importantly, rectify said problem without a drama 😊 My first port of call for a poorly Land Rover.
