Default Has anyone dealt with The Cat's Cradle Shop in Toronto?

Looking for a Jag specialist shop in the GTA area. I've heard good things about the Jag Doctor, but wondering if anyone has any experience with the Cat's Cradle?

Try Westminister Motors. Very good mechanics ask for Avo

I see this company when perusing Jaguar ads on Kijiji, and elsewhere on the Web: Birkshire Motors for Jaguar sales service and parts in Toronto Ontario Canada Ontario if I'm ever in Toronto I'd likely stop by there just to see a large gathering of jags lol. Being from St.Catharines I don't know them but figured I would give you another option if you weren't already aware of these guys.

I've had my XK in at both Westiminister Motors and Birkshire. Both are really good places. Avo at Westiminister is a very straight forward guy and very knowledgable and reputable in his service. They did complete brakes and oil service for me.

Although I have never been to Cats Cradle, I did get a quote from them when I was installing my lowering springs. Their prices were extremely expensive, so much so that you might as well go to the dealer. I got this service done at Birkshire. Very reasonable there and good guys to deal with as well.

Cats Cradle is a reliable and good source of jaguar care.
However the comment made concerning price is the most common thing you hear about them which I dont understand. Their hourly rates are less than most places that specialize in Jaguars by a long shot. Having said that I have had all five of my Jags at cats cradle at one time or another and never had a reason to complain. The work is good. The Jag doctor has a good reputation too, I forget his name right now. Don't know about the others. Berkshire? Uhhh, great place love Sam and all his people.
They have worked on my X-JS and my Daimler before I owned them and most say there good, no complaints about them. But you wont get better shop rates from a Jaguar specialist than Cats Cradle. I have been satisfied every time.

There, honest testimonials on the web!
