Professional…read moreteam, I did an online quote, initially I was offered $390 for my 1996 Toyota Corolla but I was not quite ready to sell the vehicle for scrap metal. They then offered me $500 via email for the car but I wasn't ready still to sell as I needed to service my replacement car first. I clicked on the click from the email to get a new quote when I was ready to sell and I was offered $390, I didn't use their business (Car Take Back) as I got offered $500 by two other companies. However, they were my back up plan as the company that bought my car for $500 had arranged collection and didn't attend or call as their tow truck broke down that day and they arranged to come the next day which they did and I got the money I was offered. Car Take Back was my next option if the other company failed to attend for the second arrangement time. I would definitely consider getting a quote from Car Take Back if I needed to sell another car in the future.

This is where I will normally go in order to get my car serviced or repaired. Originally owned by a…read moreman I referred to as Pak, the business has since been sold to one of the people who used to work for him. That said, the service is still good and the price I pay for it is reasonable as well. I really got tired of being taken on a ride with a lot of other franchised car service centres which shall remain unnamed, who would charge me 4 times than what I would normally pay because they managed to find things that "had" to be fixed in the car. Not knowing anything or much about cars, this made me an easy target for places like these and eventually I caught on that half of the things they recommended fixing were not critical to safety. Sure, your car runs better, things would be newer, but was it necessary? No, not all. At Paks auto you can expect a fair price, and the owner will call you up before he does anything outside of what you have asked him to do, such as if he finds something that really does need repairing. They do general servicing and repairs so if you live in the area and are looking for a place to do any of that with your car, swing by Paks Auto.

After being quoted excessively and unreasonably from larger franchises, Transtec Automotives is in…read moremany cases a friendly and cheaper alternative. The staff are efficient and reasonable, which suits me just fine. I got referred here from a family member, who got referred from a friend and so on. In all I have never heard any complaints across he board, and although it is not necessary the fanciest garage in the world, it still get the job done with little fuss. So next time you get quoted an insane price to fix your car, perhaps visit Transtc Automotives before shedding any tears. The only thing is that they are not open weekends, which can be a bit of a bugger depending on when your car decides to give up on you.

Went to the shop that…read moredoes my tuning and they put me onto 2 'transmission' guys in the city. 1 was hazy on price / what I was describing & I had to book in a time for him to do an assessment of the error messages. This guy said "yep seen 100-150" / this is the price / drop in wherever and we'll hook it up & have a look. That computer readout took 5 minutes! Gave then the job. All done at the price quoted that was a lot less than the other guy... Recommend!

I called Mobile Brake Repairs recently to replace the front discs and pads on my car. Not only did…read morethey offer the best price of the places I called but they were quick to provide a quote and to book my car in. They turned up on time as promised and completed the job so quickly that I assumed the mechanic had come to the door to ask a question, not to tell me that he had finished. The car now drives really well and brakes as smoothly as it ever has. Great job!

I had my Suzuki Grand Vitara serviced here yesterday and I was impressed by their professionalism…read more The cost of the service matched the quote they gave when I booked, and it was quite reasonable. They gave me a good run down on what they did and the state of my car, when I picked the car up. He was nice guy too! I got the impression that these guys actually car about doing a good job, and you can't ask for much more than that. I'll be taking my car back here in a years time.

Tyrepower deal in tyres incase you didn't know. They also deal in power!! One of those two…read morestatements is false. I leave it to you to decide which one it is... Tyrepower offer excellent prices on new tyres. They also service your brakes, which is how I ended up here. It looks like I'll be back soon as well as my tyres are running a bit low on tread. Anyway, the service was great. They went over the car and pointed out a few things when I came to pick it up. You could accuse them of trying to upsell by doing this, but they made sure I could see for myself the problems they were identifying. Most of them they couldn't fix anyway as they mainly deal in tyres. I had a little difficulty booking my car in, maybe it was a busy time of year, I'm not sure. Either way, it's a sign that people know quality. Really, that's the only problem I can think of.

These guys are great! Last week I asked them if they could possibly look at my car because I…read morethought there was something wrong with it. The man on the phone said he would squeeze me in, which he didn't have too. When I picked my car up, they said they checked everything for me and said that it was fine! The man at the desk wouldn't let me pay either, which I did question him about 3 times! He was lovely and honest! So today I took my car back to be serviced even though he told me it didn't need it, I still felt as though I wanted it done because it had been a while. I went to pick it up and it was ready on time and extremely cheap! Told me what they did, went through everything! Amazing service and amazing guy! I'm extremely nervous when it comes to tradies and mechanics and stuff as I've dealt with some dodgies along the way. I wouldn't take my car anywhere else now! Great place!

I recently took my car here because the trans was slipping. I went in thinking I may be up for a…read morenew transmission and wanted an idea on how long it may last. I left with no issues and Greg seems to think it should all be good. For a good trans service I saved a fortune on having to replace it when it got a little worse. He even told me what I needed to fix another totally unrelated problem that I had occurring with my steering which also saved me heaps. He is an older bloke and obviously been doing this for years and it shows. Plus to top it off, I booked my car in for a service and flush (which was more expensive) and he only charged me for the service as he said it did not need the flush. So he was honest enough to do that and save me more money. Plenty of others would likely just do the job asked for anyway and take the higher fee whether it was needed or not.
