Matt Allen - Bumper to Bumper Radio Show Host
Owner: Virginia Auto Service/Import Car Specialists
ASE Certified Technician, Accredited Automotive Manager
Matt is the host of our weekly Bumper to Bumper Radio Show. He started working on cars when he was 16 years old. He enjoyed it so much that he began to dream about owning his own shop someday.
Matt’s opportunity came up when he happened upon the building where Virginia Auto Service is currently located. The shop was boarded up and in major disrepair. To anyone else, it looked like a disaster, but to Matt, it looked like his dream.
A little determination and a lot of elbow grease enabled Matt to open Virginia Auto Service in 1995. He was only 24 years old.
From the beginning, Matt’s philosophy was to “Do the right thing, and do it with the highest quality.” It’s because of that philosophy that Virginia Auto Service has been able to weather the many challenges that presented themselves. From down economies, to a fire that almost destroyed the entire business, Virginia Auto Service has made it through the hardest of times.
