That pretty much describes the independent garage I use. There are always 2 too many broken cars in the parking lot, the garage space is full, the owner/operator and his one assistant mechanic are always grimy. But they both always have a smile on their face and act like you are a long lost relative they can't believe they are seeing you again.

I'd trust either of them with a hypercar if I had one.
