GP Mechanical: Routine Service and Maintenance done “our” way

For routine oil changes, scheduled maintenance, or complex repairs, you usually think of three choices: dealership, independent shop, or doing it yourself. Each has advantages and disadvantages. But what if there’s another choice? A choice that offers dealership expertise, the reassurance of DIY, and the meticulous care you've trusted for years from a familiar place? Introducing GP Mechanical.

Being the son of an automotive engineer, cars are part of my background. As a child, I helped my dad with repairs. He had a curious mind and loved understanding how things worked. We spent time fixing our cars together, doing brake jobs, changing starters or alternators, and enjoying that time together. Little did I know, it would one day be my career

Clients often express a desire to service their own cars with the care they deserve, but they lack the time and skills. I have always wanted to provide this service but felt responsible to only do so with the right person to work on their vehicle

Then, one day, that opportunity came. I was fortunate to cross paths again with an amazing Porsche mechanic with over 40 years of experience who happened to also be passionate and still love working on these German treasures. His vast expertise spanned air cooled era, newer supercars such as the Carrera GT and 918 Spyder, and also EVs such as Taycan

I recall presenting our service to a few clients and the happiness in their voice. My idea was straightforward: provide the same attention to mechanical repairs as we do for our detailing services. For an oil change, we’d meticulously clean the area. For a brake job, the entire wheel well would be steam cleaned and protected. Parts would come directly from Porsche, unless client instructed otherwise, and be installed by an expert

This idea is now a reality, and many clients have trusted us and benefited from our services. Our goal isn’t to compete with dealers or other shops, but to provide a higher level of service from a company that continually improves for its clients. At GP, we aim to solve our clients' problems with precision and exceptional customer service

In an age where digital means progress and apps dominate communication, we believe the personal touch is still valued. When we provide a service, we send clients photos and timelapses to show our care for them and their cars. Before-and-after pictures of a cleaned engine cover bring joy and convey our attention to detail. You can feel the expertise and passion behind the work. You are not just a ticket number to us; you and your car are part of the GP family, and it’s an honor to serve you
