Kevin Millard

BMW, Mercedes, Porsche Technician

Technician Kevin Millard once had a colleague with a sleek white BMW E-30. Bonding over their shared love for cars, they decided to swap "pink slips" and Kevin found himself immersed in the world of German automotive care.

Kevin loves the driving experience and handling of BMWs and pours his passion into his work which also includes mastery of Mercedes and Porsche.
