While the neat two-story building at the corner of Main & Ela streets in downtown Barrington has been there for years, what happens inside has certainly changed.
Nestled in a tidy white brick building near the Metra Station on Lake-Cook Road, brothers Gilbert and Allen Khoshaba are continuing the legacy of the Hollis Brothers who founded the auto repair shop a generation ago.
Hollis Brothers Auto Werkz continues to be a cornerstone of reliable automotive care. The building is a familiar sight, but the expertise and dedication found within its walls are constantly evolving, making it one of the most trusted names in local auto repair.

Whether you drive a BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, or another prestigious brand, ASE-certified technicians combine advanced training and experience to deliver unparalleled care. Utilizing genuine parts and state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, Hollis Brothers tackle everything from preventative maintenance, such as oil changes and brake filter replacements, to complex repairs involving engines and transmissions.
“Our commitment to convenience sets us apart,” Gilbert says. “We know life doesn’t pause for car troubles, so we offer services like loaner vehicles and shuttle transportation. Additionally, our secure lockbox system allows customers to drop off their cars outside regular business hours, ensuring flexibility and peace of mind. Operating Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 4:30 PM, our team works diligently to get you back on the road with confidence.”
