Mini Shop Needed-Bob Smith Area

2008 S coming off warranty. Who has a good independent shop they like in the West San Fernando Valley?

I'm sad to see this got no reply. I have been stuck on Bob Smith too for lack of a better place. I trust them 100% with my car, but I'd like to find someone I can trust who doesn't charge dealership prices. Did you find anyone?

2 shops that have come up are MiniCorsa in North Hollywood, which is in the wrong direction and 101 Auto Repair on Winnetka which is closer. The guy that was liking 101 has a classic Mini, but I assumed they service new cars too.

There's a place in sun valley called MINI World, I went there for an oil change and they're great! There's another place on Vine St. in Glendale that specializes in BMW/MINI I haven't had any work done there but I've been inside and they look super professional, very clean and nice looking shop. I'd imagine that they're a little more expensive than MINI World but I'm sure they do a great job too.
