Auto repair shops in Hamilton

“I recently purchased a Toyota Hiace from Nicholson Autos, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The vehicle grooming was immaculate, as was the overall condition of the car. It was clear that Nicholson Autos takes pride in maintaining their vehicles to the highest standards. This attention to detail extended to all the vehicles on their lot, which were presented in immaculate condition. What truly stood out, though, was the exceptional service. Erin was the first person we dealt with—she provided all the information we needed and arranged a test drive with a fantastic route. After that, we spoke with Curtis, who worked out a great deal, handled all the paperwork efficiently, secured an amazing warranty, and made sure the van had a new WOF. I ended up purchasing the vehicle on the same day I saw it. The entire process was smooth, straightforward, and stress-free. What set Nicholson Autos apart was the friendly and honest approach of the team. They made us feel welcome and engaged in great conversations while we waited. Nicholson Autos truly exceeded my expectations. Their friendly staff, willingness to go the extra mile, and genuine care for their customers made this a standout experience. If you’re in the market for a vehicle or just want to connect with great people, I highly recommend stopping by Nicholson Autos. You won’t be disappointed!”

“Excellent service, fair prices and courtesy cars. Thanks Advantage team for your prompt and professional service. Will definitely be back!”

“This place is incredible. I came in with my baby boy, he was fast asleep in the car. I had a gut feeling I should get my car checked out. I wasn’t from Hamilton and I down to earth.was visiting for a family member in Waikato hospital. Anyway, last minute I walked through the door. Straight away the reception lady was super lovely, she asked if anyone could check my car. A guy gave the time to take a look on the spot. Turns out the vehicle needed a lot. They helped me find the cheapest option. At such last minute, they were able to book my vehicle to get it sorted immediately! I was travelling the next day. they got it all sorted in time. They are amazing! Super efficient, quick on the gun! Helpful, genuine and effective to help me get back on the road safely the next day. I’m am super thankful ❤️”

“Received the right part quickly by courier to Waiheke Island for a far cheaper price than expected. In my experience this isn't always the case. These guys take care and are the real deal! Thank you very much.”

“My 2006 Nissan Navara 3L turbo broke down in Hamilton on December 17th, and AA recommended this place saying that they have very good expertise with diesel injection systems. JAC was the only firm willing to look at it, since it was close to christmas. By the end of the week they had diagnosed the problem in the injection pump, given me a fair estimate of the cost to fix and said it would be ready by January 8th or 9th. Turns out they had it fixed with a new/refurbished pump by Jan 7th. The invoice had good detail, and the new pump has a 12 month warrantee. My truck was safe with them over christmas and now has more power. Nissans with the ZD30 engine have this problem regularly, before 400,000Km. James was good to deal with, quality job, good at remembering details.”

“Had my car towed to them on Thursday around mid day and they had it fixed and ready by the end of the same day. Excellent turn around for a starter motor. I was so thankful as really needed that car for my holiday the next day. Amazing.”

“Good honest people, brought a few parts through them and have all been good. And recently brought an alternator that ended up being faulty and they sorted a refund and were very hassle free. Would recommend”

“After I received a high quote from the other air conditioning shop in Hamilton, I took my car to the team here and got a very competitive quote. It was a big job involving the dash in and out. It ended up costing over $1000 cheaper than the other shop and looking at the workmanship I can’t fault them. The dash is put back together perfectly with the air conditioning working faultlessly. I’m very happy with the job and the price and I would recommend it to anyone with air-conditioning problems that these guys do a good job. Happy customer A++”

“Highly recommend this place. They helped us out with a battery and found out that my girl needed a starter motor. Awesome customer service.”

“Very friendly and nothing a problem, very happy with our job,”

“Really good and friendly service. Great alternative for Toyota parts if you don't want to pay the Dealership prices. This means paying only half or one third prices and you save. I was referred by Ebbett Toyota which means this company is reliable and can be counted on. The owner went further and located the item for me from Auckland. Very happy with the service and outcome. Highly recommended for others to try this place for Toyota used parts.”

“Prompt, efficient, and friendly service. Diagnosed and sorted an ignition fault on my inboard V8 ski boat, and had me up and running the next day. Great communication and didn’t charge like a bull. Will definitely use again if needed”

“The guys here are awesome! Friendly efficent service. Helped me find a part for my car and saved me hundreds. I highly recommend!”

“The guys were great. They rung within an hour after dropped my car off to tell me what was wrong with it. The bill was less than what I was expecting to pay. Im from out of town &I was recommended them from my garage in taumarunui, I'm very pleased with the service & recommend seeing them.”

“Great service -- highly recommended!”
