OUR STORY
Founded in 2021 by two mechanical engineers from the University of Michigan, TC European has quickly become Denver’s sanctuary for classic BMW enthusiasts. Unlike general repair shops, this facility is built on a foundation of genuine passion and engineering precision, dedicated to keeping iconic BMW chassis thriving in the modern era. Their team doesn't just swap parts; they understand the soul of these machines, offering everything from routine maintenance to full-scale restorations and complex engine swaps. TC European is also the owner of one of the largest collections of OEM BMW Bluebook manuals, using them for almost all classic repairs. TC European caters to the purist and the modifier alike. Whether you need a simple tune-up for your daily driver E30 or a complete S54 engine swap for a 2002 restoration project, their workshop is equipped to handle it. They combine "barn find" rescue experience with an engineering-first approach, ensuring that every modification or repair respects the heritage of the marque while delivering reliable performance.

Keeping your classic BMW thriving in the modern era.
Tyler Simon - Owner
Tyler has always owned something BMW. His first car was an M10 E21 and he since has owned two E30 325ixs, and now an E36 M3 that he has heavily refurbished with Carson.
He is passionate about small business and customer relationships and has no fear in getting his hands dirty.
Carson Koegel - Owner
Carson originally fell in love with muscle cars as a kid living in Flint Michigan. However, Tyler converted him to the European side of things after introducing him to BMW E30s. He recently purchased a 325ix and promptly blew it up and has been cutting, welding and engine building ever since.
