Our Story
Continental Repairs was started in 1967 by Rolf Meyer.
Rolf and his shop were one of Vancouver’s first German car specialists, working on Volkswagen’s and Mercedes, then Audi’s, BMW’s and Volvo’s.
Over 55 years later, his son Erich ran the shop with the help of David Gerth, Continental’s co-owner and the legendary Dave Murphy, Vancouver’s most loved service manager.
In June 2026, Continental Repairs shut it’s doors after nearly 60 years. David and Dave had retired, and Erich decided to close a few months later.
After speaking to shops in the area, we have decided to forward our phone and email to the guys at Fairview Automotive while we contemplate re-opening somewhere else. Fairview has been a friend to our shop for many, many years. We have shared resources, knowledge and tools, so we are happy to recommend them.
If you call or email Continental Repairs, you will likely be greeted by Taj Franklin. They will take good care of you and your car.
