I recently had major engine repairs performed by Brent and his staff at Columbia Rovers, and feel compelled to endorse their service and professionalism. During the late summer my...

Free oil change huh? Wondering what the catch is? Come here if you want to get snowballed by incompetent mechanics, overpriced repairs, and from what I can tell outright missdiagn...

Friendly, knowledgeable staff 9/13/2009

My wife and I have been taking our '96 Discovery to Columbia Rovers for about two years. They have fixed the window risers, wiper motor, and replaced the radio. They have done engine diagnostics, fixed electrical and emissions problems, and even found used body parts so I could do my own repairs. Their work has always been done right, their prices are fair, and the people at Columbia Rovers are always friendly. Pros: Easy to get to, right off of I-405 more

Awsome Rover shop 8/27/2009

If you are a Land Rover owner and looking for a quality shop with great prices and expert knowledge shop no farther. I just purchased my first Land Rover a 2000 Disco 2. I knew I needed a shop to go over my new Disco and found Columbia Rover to be outstanding. Brent and Josh have taken extra time out of there busy day on several occasions to answer my abundance of questions. Brent even had one of the mechanics go over my Disco to let me know if there were any problems looming. And for this service they didn’t charge me a dime. Dan Griffin Vancouver Wa Pros: Great group of people.... Cons: Cantthink of any more

Driver's Beware... These people are crooks. 6/15/2009

I've owned a Land Rover for years. I've been to the Dealership and the competition. The only Reason I went into "Columbia" Rovers, was a free oil change coupon stuffed on my Land Rover Discovery Series II. Despite the creepy, overly pushy sales persona the owner gave me as I brought my car in, I let them get on with the oil change. First, without my permission, they removed my license plate frame, and slapped on their own without even a thought to ask. Second, after it was almost over, Brent (owner) came to me to tell me that my head gaskets were leaking profusely, a job PDX Rovers had just done several months before. He also told me that because of the bad head gasket job, my engine was toast, and needed to be replaced. He was very pushy about it, and quoted me $5000 in repairs to fix it all. After explaining that I knew PDX had done it right, he began to trash talk the competition in a way that absolutely disgusted me. Trash talking the owner, lies about shotgun work, and deceptive diagnoses.... But the truth was, I've known PDX for quite some time, through quite a few other Land Rover owners too. And know them to be among the most trust worthy folks in town. I called him out on the BS, and asked to have my car closed up and removed as quickly as possible. I was done with them. A few weeks later, I had my Discovery looked at again, and not only found out that there was a lot more to the story behind Columbia than just shady mechanics, but shady business practices as well. DO YOUR RESEARCH!!! Not only were my head gaskets in great shape, but my engine was perfectly fine. Not a leak, broken part, or nothing in sight. Columbia was ready to charge me FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS to do absolutely nothing to my car. How desperate can you be? Needless to say, I will never return to Columbia Rovers, and will steer every last Land Rover I see in Portland away from them as well. Portland is too small for a mechanic or anyone to get away with running a business like this... Pros: ... Cons: Get quoted 5 Grand for Imaginary Work more

Great Shop for your Rover! 2/13/2009

Really nice guys and knowledgeable too. They have been really great at answering all of my questions as a new Land Rover owner! They are always available to help with getting used parts or new ones and fixing anything that you need. I have been to other shops and waited two weeks for a repair that never got done - not here. Thanks guys! more

Friendly, fun, and smart. Yea, it's Columbia Rovers. 1/16/2009

Last year I was having some hard start problems with my Classic and was searching for the right shop to not only take care of the problem, but to build an all important relationship with. I started out taking it to the ""other"" shop in town, and after 3 mis-diagnosis and shotgunning parts at it, I decided to take it to Brent at Columbia Rovers. What an experience! They stuck with it and figured it out. They found discounted parts and the labor was quite reasonable. Since then I have had them do some upgrades and other work to my truck with great results. I will not take my truck anywhere else, in fact I drive all the way from Bend to have it worked on. Thankfully they are opening a shop in Bend this year! Pros: Exellent service, Great price on parts, Honest Cons: I can not see through the elephant stickers on my side windows. more
