Word of mouth, is that Shift's lot got bought out by Cressey Development. Huge payout.. No longer running a shop. I'm surprised the owner didn't sell off the company as it was well known to the VW and Audi owners.

it's been years since i last went to shift... all i knew was that richard rented/leased the building and he put a lot of money expanding/renovating into the adjacent space. kinda sucks i guess

I believe he owned the land and also purchased the land behind him, renovated the crap out of the place and now sold.
I would assume he did very well on the sale. The property he purchased a few years ago was dirt cheap then
If you dont mind in the Burnaby Royal Oak area, The Speed Syndicate very good from my experience. They took in my super old 2001 Corolla for brake servicing. Well priced and didnt try to scam me in doing other services. Plus they are a sponsor to revscene, they have a maintained a good reputation here too

RPI is fucking laughably expensive. When the dollar was at par(ish) their parts were literally triple the cost of ordering online. I like to support local shops, but not local gouging.

Didn't realize Shift was no longer in the game, they are truly one of the most knowledgeable shops in Vancouver when it comes to VW/Audi.
Whenever I needed work done I use and trust The Speed Syndicate and Shift only to work on my Audi. Generally I go to TSS for everything, but when I need to get some labour intensive stuff done I may go to Shift. Simply because they work on these cars all day and they can sometimes get stuff done faster than the book time, thus saving me some money on labour. Quality-wise, I think TSS and Shift are the same, both offer professional services.
So that he could link his own page #shamelessplug and probably take advantage of RevScene's SEO (backlinking). While I'm on the topic, guy should consider hiring someone who actually knows something about design. The design aspect of that website is so bad. LMFAO the buttons dont work unless you double click on it or if you click the tiny drop down arrow. Page load speed is pretty bad (5.1s). There's no call to action on the main page LOL. Pictures are good, but why have a LinkedIn page.
