About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when the garage doors were closed and the last mechanic had gone home, a soft voice crackled over the intercom: ‘TopGear, your neon sign is blinking like a drunk driver on New Year’s Eve.’ A sleepy mechanic groggily walked over, flipped the sign, and muttered, 'Damn thing's been doing that for weeks.' The voice replied, 'Then why don't you fix it?' With a smile, he said, 'Because it's our little secret.'

2. At midnight, when the garage doors were closed and the last mechanic had gone, an odd voice crackled over the intercom: ‘TopGear Mechanics, your cars are ready for pickup.’ A delivery driver arrived early next morning, only to hear a friendly greeting through the open door: 'Morning, mate! Your bike's fixed—just like you asked!' Turned out it was just the night watchman, who enjoyed pulling pranks on unsuspecting customers.

3. At midnight, when the garage doors were closed and the last mechanic had gone, a small dog would appear from nowhere, trotting into the empty workshop. It always stopped near an old toolbox, sniffing curiously before disappearing as mysteriously as it came. One night, a delivery driver noticed the dog and decided to follow it. He found himself in front of an old toolbox, where the dog suddenly turned into a gruff old mechanic with grease-stained overalls. ‘Thought you could use some help,’ said the mechanic, fixing his gaze on the confused driver. The next morning, everyone joked that maybe TopGear wasn’t just any old garage—maybe it was run by canine mechanics after hours.’

4. At midnight, when the garage doors were closed and the last mechanic had gone, an old toolbox appeared on the workshop counter. It looked ordinary enough until you noticed the tiny note inside: 'Take one tool, leave one wish.' One night a delivery driver came in for his usual repairs. After taking a wrench, he wished for better fuel economy. Next morning, his truck drank less gas but started honking like a goose whenever it was cold outside. A neighbor visited later that week, leaving behind a spark plug and wishing for a quieter life. From then on, every time their dog barked too much, the garage door would gently close and reopen.
