Bemer Motor Cars is Houston’s dedicated European service and collision repair center, located at 9201 Richmond Ave in the heart of the city. Since 1985, our family-run shop has specialized in caring for premium European vehicles—BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Volkswagen, MINI, Jaguar, Land Rover, Porsche, Volvo, and more—while our collision center repairs all makes and models, including domestic vehicles. Founded in 1985, we operate from a single, full-scale facility with a team of experienced automotive professionals serving European drivers across Houston.
We’re built as a true dealership-level alternative: factory-trained technicians, OEM-level diagnostic and programming equipment, and a service experience that’s transparent, personal, and pressure-free. Whether you need expert collision repair, scheduled maintenance, or advanced diagnostics, you’ll get the same commitment to quality, safety, and long-term reliability.
Bemer Motor Cars started when Julian Martinez—already a well-respected BMW technician—decided to give BMW owners a better experience than at the dealership. In March 1985, he opened what was then BMW Preventive Maintenance Inc., a small shop focused solely on BMW service and repair.
Word spread quickly among local enthusiasts, and over the years, the shop’s capabilities and reputation grew. What started as a BMW-focused operation has evolved into a comprehensive European service and collision repair center capable of working on BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, VW, MINI, Jaguar, Land Rover, Porsche, Volvo, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Bentley, and more. With over 41 years in the automotive industry and thousands of European vehicles maintained, Bemer Motor Cars stays true to Julian’s original vision: dealership-level expertise combined with honest, straightforward care.






When you choose Bemer, you’re selecting a full-scale dealership alternative for both service and collision repair. We combine the same factory procedures and equipment you’d expect from a dealership with the flexibility and personal attention of an independent shop.
You can expect:
Factory-level service and diagnostics that follow OEM procedures for both mechanical and collision work.
Clear, upfront estimates so you always understand what your vehicle needs and why.

From minor bumper damage to complex drivability concerns, our team is here to protect your vehicle’s performance, appearance, and value without the dealership hassle.
European vehicles are engineered differently—and they deserve technicians who understand that. Our team includes ASE-certified and brand-trained professionals with deep experience across:












For collision repair, our I-CAR–trained body and paint specialists follow manufacturer-approved repair methods to restore your vehicle’s structural integrity, safety systems, and finish. Industry certifications from ASE, BMW, and I-CAR, along with AAA and CarFax approvals, reflect our commitment to doing the job right the first time.
We invest in ongoing training so our technicians stay current on new platforms, safety systems, materials, and repair procedures—whether we’re calibrating modern driver-assistance systems, programming a module, or performing a precise color match on a luxury finish.
Modern European vehicles rely on sophisticated electronics and tightly integrated control modules. To service them correctly, you need more than a generic scanner—you need the same level of technology the dealer uses.
Bemer Motor Cars utilizes advanced OEM and OEM-level diagnostic platforms, including:
Combined with our key and module programming capabilities, these systems enable us to accurately diagnose faults, perform software updates and coding, and ensure every control module in your vehicle communicates exactly as the manufacturer intended. The result is precise, efficient repairs that protect performance and prevent recurring issues.
