Redefining Craftsmanship in Automobile Repair
For car lovers, luxury ownership is more than transportation. It is a commitment to craftsmanship, design, and the pure exhilaration that comes from
sitting behind the wheel of a finely engineered machine. When damage strikes, only the most exacting standards will do. That is why No.1 Collision Group continues to set the benchmark for luxury vehicle repair in North America, with facilities that feel as bespoke as the automobiles they serve.
Three years ago, the company unveiled its flagship downtown Vancouver location at the corner of Vernon Drive and Parker Street—a 30,000 square foot centre unlike anything else in the collision repair world. Even now, stepping through its doors feels less like entering a repair facility and more like arriving at a private members’ club. Bocci lighting designed by Vancouver’s Omer Arbel, Italian leather furniture by Fritz Hansen, and carefully curated local artwork elevate the environment into something truly extraordinary. A rooftop lounge, valet service, and on-site rentals ensure that clients are cared for as attentively as their vehicles.
This dedication to experience has defined No.1 Collision since its beginnings more than 50 years ago. Founded by a Vancouver family, the group has grown across Metro Vancouver with five locations, and today expands its vision south of the border with two equally stunning facilities in Bellingham and Newport Beach. Each space reflects the same ethos: a blend of state-of-the-art technology, world-class craftsmanship, and design that honours the artistry of the vehicles themselves.
At the heart of this success are the technicians. Fully factory-trained and certified by the world’s most prestigious manufacturers, they are entrusted with marques like Porsche, Mercedes, BMW, and Tesla. No.1 Collision is now the largest Tesla collision repair centre in Western Canada, a distinction that underscores its forward-thinking embrace of the electric revolution. With exacting attention to detail, every repair restores vehicles to their original factory specifications, ensuring performance, safety, and aesthetics align with the highest standards.
Co-owner Scott Walker summarizes the philosophy: “When you look around at some of our competitors in the collision industry, it’s hard to find anyone that offers this kind of an experience from a client’s perspective. From the high-end craftsmanship of our facilities to our well-trained technicians who are passionate about the vehicles they repair, we really strive to provide the best overall client experience.”
Driving a luxury automobile has never been about necessity. It is about passion—the thrill of acceleration, the quiet confidence of refined engineering, and the pride of knowing you are part of a legacy of innovation. No.1 Collision recognizes this truth. That is why each client leaves not only with a flawlessly restored car, but also with the renewed sensation of driving it for the first time all over again.
With seven facilities across Canada and the United States, No.1 Collision continues to prove that collision repair can be as extraordinary as the vehicles it serves. For enthusiasts, it remains the destination where luxury cars meet luxury care.
