A lot of Calgary Deli-owners have good things to say about Kirkham Automotive in the south.

I have not taken my van in to them, but when I spoke with them on the phone they were very friendly and accomodating. They are more inclined to install the parts you source and bring to them, not sure they can source much. But they have worked on a lot of Delicas...

I've been doing my own routine maintenance thus far (oil/lube/etc), and I've been to CVI in Richmond twice since I bought my van in August 2010, to get the major things done (brakes, tie rods, gaskets, etc). Those guys are amazingly good at what they do, and know how to take good care of you and your van :-)

I always took mine to Kirkham. They serviced and also lifted both of mine. Good honest guys. They are in the SW on Horton Rd near Macleod and between Southland and Heritage.

The owner even offered up his fancy BBQ trailer for club outtings but never took him up on it. 8-)

I've had great experiences with these guys:
Pro-Star Auto & R V Service Ltd
Address: Suite 3-2705 5 Ave NE, Calgary, AB T2A 2L6
Phone: (403) 273-3300
Transit: SB 28 St@5 Av NE

They've done everything from OOP inspection to oil/tire changes to alternator re/re at prices comparable to Vancouver. The owner Dan and his staff are excellent and they work on lots of JDMs and Delicas. I source my parts and they install them. Excellent service - they never do more than is necessary; always done on time and budget; and fair prices.
