Tony's Imported Auto Service
About the shop

The Manchester auto shop drivers have trusted since 1979.

Tony's Imported Auto Service on New State Rd in Manchester, CT

More than four decades on the same kind of cars.

Tony opened the doors in 1979 to do one thing well: keep European imports running right. The shop is still family owned and still independent. We have watched these cars change from carburetors to controller area networks, and we kept up with every one of them.

Customers stay with us for decades because we tell them the truth about their car and charge them fairly for the work.

Founder, 1979
Where it started

It all goes back to Tony.

Antonio “Tony” Oliveira came to Connecticut from Murtosa, Portugal, in 1967, and in 1979 opened the doors on New State Road. He built the shop the only way he knew how: honest work, done right, for people he treated like neighbors.

Through the Porsche and BMW clubs he became a mechanic, sponsor, and friend to a generation of Connecticut drivers. That standard is the one we still work to. His family runs the shop today, the same way he did.

Honest, upfront pricing

You get a written quote before we touch the car. No surprise add-ons, no work you did not approve. If something else turns up, we call you first.

ASE-certified, factory-trained

Our technicians hold ASE certifications and we run as a Bosch Service center, with the diagnostic equipment these cars actually require.
