Our Auto Repair Shop History
Triangle European began as a “boutique” auto repair facility that only provided Porsche and BMW repair services. In 1994, a visionary recognized the company’s potential and purchased the Raleigh auto repair shop. Acknowledging the community’s need for a larger, more well-rounded auto repair facility, the owner changed the name to Triangle European and hired qualified mechanics who specialized in repairing and servicing luxury and foreign vehicles. The experience, specialization, and unmatched customer care helped launch Triangle European and made it the award-winning Raleigh auto repair shop that it is today.

Mike ,
Is the current shop owner and still works in the shop as a shop foreman. Mike started his career as a shop helper in Virginia while he put himself through automotive college classes at NOVA. Mike moved to Scottsdale Arizona in 1999 where he met his wife and started working for BMW/ Mini Cooper. With Mikes hard work and dedication he became BMW/Mini master certified along with his ASE masters. Shortly later he became shop foreman. Mike and his beautiful wife decided to move back to the east coast in 2013 and landed in Raleigh North Carolina. With their children off to college and starting their own careers Mike decided it was time to follow his passion and open his own shop to support the local community with European expertise

I am more of a bike person (2017 Yamaha r6) but if I could drive one car for the rest of my life it would have to be the 2023 BMW x4 M40i.
Best work place environment thus far has to be TRIANGLE EUROPEAN, True leaders understand they serve their team, not the other way around. They prioritize fostering a supportive environment, ensuring well-being, and empowering individuals to excel. Mike has been the best mentor for this amazing team we have.
