I always go in thinking this is probably going to cost me a couple hundred dollars... until I get the register and they begin to go through the itemised 'work'. It's then I think FAR OUT, all that and it's how much? Seriously!? I'm never coming back here. Anyways... back to Midas. This mechanic was great. Offered great service and explained the work I needed done to my car in my language (ie. 'not a car expert' speak). What is also a bonus, the guy who worked there (sorry can't remember his name) was personable - friendly and chatty. Not rude, obnoxious, arrogant. Will be going back, fo' sure.

If you're after a wash and general vacuum, it's satisfactory - though this really is dependant on how fussy you are. I've used this carwash a number of times and my general opinion is they do the job. On occasion I've needed to bring a clean cloth out and spot clean windows that have smudges. I've just recently chosen to have my new (secondhand) car steam cleaned and have the leather treated priced at $149. The previous owner was a smoker and this was evident by the stale smell and dirty ashtray. It needed freshening up so that new car smell (only 2.5yrs old) could be revived. For that price I expected every nook and cranny to be cleaned. Unfortunately the ashtray was dirty and those nooks and crannies weren't cleaned properly. Upon mentioning the dirty ashtray, they were accommodating and cleaned it immediately. The grooves in the leather still revealed dust and some remnant dirtiness. I've had to go over it thoroughly myself with a damp cloth to get those bits that were missed. Would I use them for detailing at that price again? Probably not. A general wash on the other hand - yes.

Mechanics get a bad rep, but the guys of Macleod Motors dispel the myth completely. Friendly and honest, their customer service is fantastic and I trust my car with John and Terry completely. The location is a short walk from the Macleod train station so you can head off elsewhere while they fix your car. As they are an independent business they do charge more then your chain service station, however the value and personal service you get for this charge is definitely worth every cent. My car always seems happier after it visits Macleod Motors, what more could you want?

Then when I rolled into the queue, the staff directed me on to the rollers for the washer, they washed down my wing mirrors, placed the cover over the rear wiper and offered me the Herald Sun, for free.

The result.....actually really positive. This garage mainly deals with panel beating and bodywork but I asked the owner/manager for a service while my car was in there and he happily obliged. He even detailed my car for free leaving it brand new clean as he "didn't want it leaving his garage as dirty as it came in".......embarrassment. The experience of servicing a car can be kind of daunting for people with no mechanical expertise but I felt informed and walked through the entirety of the process.
