Coastal Honda

Our showroom and workshop are tucked away behind Jahanvi Restaurant in the Nehrunagar area of Ahmedabad. If you know the Panjrapole Cross Roads, you know how hectic it can get around here. We’re located at B 72 Buena Vista, which is a bit of a quiet pocket compared to the main road rush. Most mornings start with the sound of shutters going up and the first few bikes or cars rolling in for a check-up. The staff usually gets here early to set things up before the Gujarat sun gets too high. It’s a busy place, but not in a corporate, cold way. You’ll see guys in grease-stained shirts walking around and customers sitting in the waiting area scrolling through their phones. We deal with Honda vehicles all day long, so there is always the smell of engine oil and the sound of tools clanking. It isn't a silent, polished environment. Sometimes the parts take a bit longer to arrive, and we have to explain that to frustrated folks, which is just part of the job. We’ve been near the Nehrunagar area for quite some time now, and we’ve seen the neighborhood change quite a bit. Despite the growth, we still operate in a very simple way. We take in the vehicles, see what’s wrong, and try to get them back on the road. There’s no big secret to how we work; we just show up and do the tasks that are in front of us.
