Alan Auto Volvo Restoration

Alan and his team are top-notch! I showed up at the end of 2023 with a car that was barely drivable, and they saw the "good bones" and brought my "REDBRIK" back to life. Their process is detailed, collaborative and fair. I'm so grateful for all they did for my awesome wagon!

I can't say enough good things about the Alan Auto team, they do simply amazing work there. I recently purchased/imported a low-mile 1983 245 Turbo from Italy after 21 years in long term storage there and it needed to be gone through thoroughly. I sent it off with a long list and they went through and performed each task to perfection. Not only that, but they made improvements and updates to things not on the list, with my approval first of course, to make the car run as good as new. They're very communicative and let you know what's going on every step of the way so there are no surprises. Alan is a wealth of knowledge and Andrew is a master mechanic and problem solver and along with the rest of the team there they make for an unbeatable combination of Volvo experts. I would not hesitate

Alan and his team are simply superb -- talented craftsmen, honest business people, and they are true experts in our beloved Volvos. I drive my 240 wagon everyday -- and everyday I get a smile, a wave, and/or a thumbs up as people admire the beauty of the vehicle that Alan brought into my life. Not everyone can bring joy to people everyday -- but Alan does. Oh, and he's a GREAT storyteller!

Our 1990 240 DL was restored by Alan and he and his team did an outstanding job. When done the car looked like it just came off the showroom floor when it was purchased new. Alan's attention to detail is outstanding. They kept us informed weekly of the progress with pictures and decisions that needed to be made. They delivered on all their commitments, very professionally! Highly recommend Alan to anyone restoring a Volvo. I live on the west coast and shipped the car to Alan in Maine because I felt they were the best and I was right.

I have been taking my 240 to Alan for almost 2 years now. His extensive knowledge of the model keeps me coming back. He has in depth knowledge on every part, allowing him to quickly and knowledgeably assess when to use aftermarket parts vs when to pay the extra for the Volvo name. His thorough mentality can occasional cost more, but after having 2 'repairs' by other shops that left me stranded on the side of the road I always go to Alan to ensure that the job is done right. He also has the experience to explain when and how to preform preemptive maintenance. As a true Volvo enthusiast, he was happy to chat with me for long durations about what parts of my car were likely to fail next, where the rust generally sets in, etc., and how to prevent these occurrences. He was happy to share
