What an absolutely amazing group of people. My son was travelling from the north down to Kelowna for university and his car broke down. They fit us right in on a very short notice, car unfortunately was a write off, and they did not charge him for their time, helped him get all his stuff from the vehicle, did not try to fix it knowing it would cost too much and will not be worth it. This was the best service I have gotten from a garage in a long long time.

For those fortunate to be caretakers of collectible cars, we are either our own mechanics or have a relationship with one. I am in the latter category and enjoyed many years of excellent care from my previous mechanic.
When planning our relocation to Kelowna, knowing I would have to find a new mechanic, I debated whether I should sell or take my car with us. An enthusiastic call with Brett at August Garage helped make up my mind through his assurance that my little car would be well cared for.
From the initial certification for BC registration, through any required maintenance to date, Brett and his team have “made good” on their promise to look after us. My car is running great and I have been treated extremely well, including a recent visit when Drew provided excellent customer service.
Looking forward to participating in the August Dream Rally – one of the ways the business participates in the community.

Service for my audi S5 was planned as a wheel bearing replacement. Before the date of service, I blew a coolant fixture and they not only fixed the coolant and bearing very quickly, but did and excellent job and fixed other things like a rattling noise I could never pinpoint free of charge. They service high-end luxury cars here, however, as someone on the lower end of luxury I was treated the same as a Ferrari owner. The Boys chauffeured me to school when I was without a vehicle, and even helped me out on the price of parts as a student. 11/10 recommend. Audi's quote for the same job was over 500 dollars more.
Do not settle for anything less than August Garage's standards 👌 👏

Thanks so much for the kind words Fraser! It was our pleasure :)
Jared and the folks at August Garage are a real pleasure to work with. My car had some issues following a track day at Area 27. I had the car towed there and they were very helpful in finding the cause of the issue, locating the part required, answering all my queries, and being very reasonable with labour hours. The even offered me a labour discount for being a PCA member. I'm from Calgary so I appreciate the care and attention for someone who's from out of town. I was also able to pick up the car from August Luxury Motorcars on a weekend when August Garage is closed.

Took great care of my car , installed four new hard to find tires and made sure they were ordered and installed in a super short timeline. Also picked me up from the airport. Amazing service.

Always a pleasure Shawn! Hope to see you again soon!
CANNOT thank these guys enough!
We travelled from Alberta and noticed we needed a tire alignment for our Tesla once we arrived to Kelowna. They were able to get us in on really short notice and were so friendly. They were happy to give us a loaner car or drop us off wherever we needed to go so we could still enjoy our time in Kelowna. While working on the car, they also noticed some crazy excessive wearing on the tires which surprisingly didn't blow up on the drive from Alberta. They were able to order in new tires and put them on within a day which let us continue our trip safely to Vancouver. We got our vehicle back good as new and super clean too!
Definitely recommend, ask for Jared!

Hi Sam, it was our pleasure :) Safe future travels!
Jared and August Garage were excellent! I needed my Camaro thoroughly checked over, after having been in storage for many years. Their knowledge and experience troubleshot some potential future issues that were affordable to address now. They also only completed work that we agreed on, and stayed within the agreed upon budget. Great customer service and never a doubt that my car was in good hands.
Most honnest ,knowledgeable and professional service you could ask for. If you live anywhere in the Okanagan its worth the drive getting here. Thank you August!
