β β β β β AVOID! Broke down and was towed here as closest and could see us same day.
They couldn't commit to what was wrong, I kept returning as wasn't called with updates as I asked them to, each time the car wasn't being worked on.
When they found the problem they were suspect about quoting, looking at each other and smirking, felt from the off that they weren't genuine or trustworthy guys. Once the work was finally done some 7.5 hours later they tell us actually you need a new engine! As we are from the UK and invested most of our money in our camper van this was devastating news. Leaving it over night we decided to get a second opinion the next day. No issues (except they had only put half the amount of oil it needed in it), driving fine, passed its WOF. So much for needing a new engine.
Untrustworthy, really bad vibe about them and either awful mechanics or looking to screw people over, either way go else where!
Only positive is they did the job cheap which was appreciated but regardless....over all a very bad experience!

β β β β β Went there and asked for a diagnostic scan. That cost $85.....fair enough. But the cost to fix the issue quoted over $1000, and after a bit of Google research, found a replacement part for $100 on Trademe, took 5min to replace (they quoted over 2 hrs labour) and the car is running better than it has in ages. Opportunistic garage that cares more about their bank balance than their customers care. They likely would have got the job for closer to $500 and even that would have been expensive. Very short term view of the world. Sad!!

β β β β β I don't trust these guys. I took my car in for repair which they diagnosed as a fuel filter blockage. The cost of this was going to be $701. On top of that they did an assesment of the car and came back with a list of things that totalled another $4688. The major costs were all four wheel bearings, brake shoes, wheel cylinders, steering and a few other items. The thing was, exactly 12 months previously I had taken my car to another mechanic in Parnell. They had totally replaced the entire rear diff, wheel bearing etc etc. So there assesment seemed strange to me. I took it back to the first mechanic whom I trust. They work on european car mostly, and their diagnosis was quite different. Only the front right wheel cylinder needed replacing, the others were fixed by simply tightening them. New bearings need to be tightened after a wear in period.
So long story short I feel they totally fabricated a big percentage of the work. There aim was to look after their own bank balance, and not mine ! Stay away is my recommendation. Granted some of the work needed to be done but I have to question their quoting practices. Do they think I'm stupid ! Dirty old rank workshop anyway.

β β β β β Ricky was extremely helpful when I rang to book a WOF. I was very impressed with the service I recieved with this company. They picked up my car from my work and delivered it back to me in a very timely manner. All paper work was managed very efficiently and clearly. Thoroughly reccommend.
