A Local Favorite: Magnussen's Car-West Auto Body
Neighborhood: Mountain View

Two years ago I was involved in a four-car accident. During my normal commute, a car next to me rear-ended the car in front of him, and caused a chain reaction. He bounced off the other car so hard, he T-boned me, right behind my driver side door.

This happens every day to many people. Accidents disrupt our daily lives and demand our full attention. I have lived in the Bay Area my entire life, but do I know any reputable shops in the area? Do you have a favorite body shop that you take your car to?

Magnussen's Car-West Auto Body, located at 2400 Old Middlefield Way in Mountain View, is the best shop in the area. I asked friends who've had their cars worked on and, without hesitation, they all mentioned Magnussen's Car-West. I called Magnussen's and they told me to bring it down right away.

As I drove up someone met me outside. Before I knew it, he already had a quick assessment and recommended that I not drive it because it was unsafe. I told him that I had already put in a claim with my insurance and gave him the information. It was very easy and I was finally at ease.

Magnussen's Car-West Auto Body took excellent care of my car. When I got it back, you could not tell it had been damaged at all. I've seen my share of poorly done body repairs, and this was definitely the best I had ever seen. Everything matched perfectly, and even today, almost two years later, you cannot tell my car had ever been hit. The paint matches and the doors still open and close perfectly.

If you are local and need an excellent body shop, consider taking it to Magnussen's Car-West in Mountain View.

    Free-good advertisement!! It pays to let the public be aware of good place that we find.

    This should be framed and prominently displayed in their shop
