Champagne Service

I started going to Champagne years ago when my Honda Civic broke down in Winthrop, WA, The local mechanic quoted me over $ 5K for a new engine; I took my car to Champagne and Neil and Scott made the necessary repairs for a small fraction. They possess the rare combination (for service shops) of professional competency and fairness. We trust them so much, we base our car purchase decision on whether the car can be serviced at Champagne. These guys are the best.

I am so glad I found Champagne Service! I work right next door and Scott lets me drop off my car in the morning to have it done at the end of the day, even without an appointment. He is always honest and always offers a fair price. You can really tell when someone cares about what they do and it’s apparent with Scott. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

I’ve taken my car into Champagne a few times since my last review and I can’t rave enough. Scott is honest with his advice, fair with his prices, and solid with his work. I never have an issue getting an appointment, either (although I do wish they were open on Saturdays!). I drive a lot, so I know when even the slightest thing is off with my car. I just brought my car in for its 90k service and it’s running smoother than ever now. I highly, highly recommend this place!

I’ve been going to Scott at Champagne Service for years. The people I send to him are always happier that they went to him. He’s reliable, honest and reasonably prices. I trust his advise completely!

I recently moved to Seattle and don’t know any mechanics, so I went to Champagne based on the 5 star star Unilocal reviews. I will definitely be going again! After describing what was wrong with my car, they took their time doing a thorough diagnostic. They didn’t even charge for this! In my experience, most mechanics charge just to look at the car! I was told what I needed to get done soon, and what could wait.
The guys here are very genuine. One of the problems with my car required a very expensive part. I could tell Scott didn’t want me to have to put that kind of money into my car. After a few moments of thought, Scott realized he could perform a quick fix on the part for no charge — saving me hundreds!

I have been using Scott and Neil at Champagne service for more than 18 years. He is by far the most honest and reliable mechanic in the Seattle area. I have referred others to him that come to his shop as far away as Issaquah. If Scott says something needs to be fixed, then have it fixed. He will be the first to tell you what repairs can be delayed, and those that can’t. Scott is a Rotarian and lives the motto «Service Above Self» everyday at Champagne Service. You simply won’t find a better shop for your car repairs.

Scott has taken great care of our ’04 Subaru Forester, ’04 Toyota Tacoma, and 1983(!) Nissan pickup. I’ve been taking my cars/​trucks to Champagne for almost 14 years, and I have to say I have never found a more honest, reliable, and skilled mechanic when it comes to Japanese vehicles. Scott charges such a low, reasonable rate, that sometimes I wonder how he makes a living. If something can wait, he lets you know, and if the job is going to be complicated and take some time, he tells you in advance so you can plan for it. I’ve never had to take a car back for shoddy repair, because his work is always rock solid. I’m thinking about getting a Westfalia Vanagon, and it’s killing me that Scott doesn’t work on German cars. We’ll keep the Subaru, though, and when it needs work, it will always go to Champagne. I trust him as much (if not more) than our family doctor.

been taking our cars to Scott for over 20 years. I don’t know how many times he has talked me out of doing repairs I though had to be done. One of the most honest people you could ever trust your car with.

My family and I have been using Scott at Champagne Services ever since we moved to Seattle 18 years ago, and there’s a reason for it: its hard to find a mechanic who 1) does good work, 2) is as honest as they come, 3) will keep your maintenance as cheap as is necessary… there’s no «you need this pointless thing replaced»… he will tell you what needs to be done, what should be done, and what can be done, and you tell him what you want. And his prices are as fair as they come! The only knock is that he doesn’t work on every car make out there, so you’ll have to call him to see if he can work on your vehicle. I HIGHLY recommend using him as your mechanic for years to come if you are in the North Seattle area… for everything from general maintenance to the bad stuff that keeps your vehicle off the road…
