“Received excellent prompt service from Leon and his team early this afternoon after discovering a split in the front tyre of our motorhome. These guys are awesome a d they had us on the road within the hour. Thanks Hawkes Bay Tyre Specialists.”

“The staff is really friendly and the price also good!”

“Highly recommend this company, I had a charging issue with my truck, Paul (manager) had one of his workers diagnosis the issue straight away, he spent approximately half an hour checking and identifying the issue, there was no charge for the diagnosis, (rarely seen these days), HDL were able to sorce replacement parts instantly and had my truck booked into the workshop the next day, I also had HDL look at another electrical problem, and this was also corrected and truck is running better than ever, Jacob who worked on my truck both times really did a thorough job and his work is impeccable, definitely an asset to HDL auto's , thanks team much appreciated...John”

“Great service! My xtrail car repair was done perfectly and lindsay was very professional and friendly. I highly recommend this place for anyone needing car repairs. Thank you for the excellent work!”

“Fantastic service and team. They are always very helpful and professional. On my last visit, for $400 they polished my badly damaged rim which new would have cost $2,300. Thanks so much”

“James is the Stereo Man!!! Stopped in to have a look at a couple options and wow. James shared so much knowledge and experience that was awesome. It wasn’t about spending a crazy amount. It was about building a system that would work for myself and what I was wanting. Thank you I have recommended a number of people since my visit the other day and will send as many as I can. See you soon for the purchase. Cheers.”

“Always friendly efficient service. Thankyou.”

“Great fast service, Honest and straight up good old fashioned service. Thanks Paul.”

“I run Ashley's 0800 TOW TAXI, and having winches that work properly is vital. These guys have done a good job and charged a fair price”

“Quick and simple! Booked in on Monday for Tuesday, got my car done within an hour! That’s exactly what I needed. It’s not my first time coming to Chartwell Automotive and will definitely be back. Most of the time I’m quite happy with their service. Overall I find them more fair than other places.”

“Had my WOF and repairs done, they had a over night, courtesy car available for me. Quick service, friendly staff. Darby the head man ready to please, his clients. Took the time to correct my rear left sensor for free, a matter of finding the dropped sensor, putting the sensor back into its cavity.”

“I recently had my Audi serviced and I’m very satisfied with the quality of work and customer service I received. The team was professional, efficient, and took the time to explain the work carried out on my vehicle. The car was returned in excellent condition, clean and running smoothly. All issues were addressed, and the service team ensured that everything was checked thoroughly, including tyre pressure, oil levels, brakes, and general maintenance. I appreciated the transparency with the service report and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend their service – trustworthy, prompt, and customer-focused.”

“All my cars were wof and serviced at nostalgia motors. Which has since been shut down. Gray street motors and pertucularly Craig were recommended to me by one of the old nostalgia staff. And oh boy, they weren't wrong. Craig is an absolute top lad. I took my freshly build engined car to him, and he treated it with the utmost due diligence, didn't idle it at all, drove it with care keeping an eye on the criticsl stuff, went over everything. Even adjusted a few things that were wrong himself free of charge. And made time (as it required more time then an average car would due to the certification checks and everything). Without a second thought. Would recommend them. And especially Craig. I'm sure everyone else is just as good but my interactions have been primarily Craig. TLDR, if you need a proper wof for your modified/stock car. Go see Craig.”

“Andrew goes out of his way to make sure your vehicle gets the servicing it deserves. He’s upfront, no hidden charges, and checks with you before any major work is done. Only problem is he gets so busy there may be a wait involved.”

“The team were really helpful with a small issue I had with RV hot water unit. They helped be sort out the problem and explained how to rectify it if it happens again Would recommend First Auto Works for anyone needing repairs/maintenance”

“Amazing service and will definitely take my car here in near future. Our cars starter motor went out and we were stuck were to take our car. These guys not only responded fast, but they were able to get someone to us to take a look, and they towed our car back to there shop and it was all ready for us to pick up with 40hours. Thank use all & good luck to pipper :D super proud of ya!”

“Curious about why I chose this mechanic? Just take a peek at the owner's response to a review by someone named Jacob Peterson. Like many, I comb through reviews, but what truly catches my eye is how businesses respond to criticism. The owner’s reply to Jacob was spot-on—direct, precise, and incredibly well-articulated. As a PhD researcher, I have a penchant for strong arguments and am always impressed by a well-crafted response. This one exceeded my expectations, convincing me I'd found the right place for my vehicle's Warrant of Fitness (WOF). Did I pass the WOF? Unfortunately, no sir. Still they get a 5 star rating. I am gonna get it soon though. Steve, smart, precise and talented mechanic, who also has an infectious smile, carefully explained the three reasons my car didn't make the cut: 1. My headlights need polishing, 2. My fog lights should be switched from LED to halogen, and 3. My rear number plate requires reinforcement. However, this meticulous attention to detail and their transparent honesty is exactly why I trust them. It’s not about making an extra buck—they're already quite busy. I wholeheartedly recommend them, and I've already spread the word within my community. So, if you notice the queue getting longer, remember that it's the quality that draws the crowd. Just as honey draws bees, their worth is undeniable!!”

“Excellent team who got my alignment done to a professional standard. Matt was a legend. Thanks guys.”

“Extremely happy with my experience!!! i called on the day checking if they had any availability for wof cause i needed mines asap and he said i could come in the next 1 1/2 hour super happy with how fast and efficient he was :) My car has always had a issue with the spare tyre is the back not being bolted in and i always just took it out during wof checks but this time i forgot to and he went out of his way to find me a specific bolt to fit into my spare because if not i would have failed. He could have easily failed my car but he didn’t and i appreciated the effort and time he took for me to pass my wof. Extra $10 but i didn’t mind at all super happy as this is my first time passing my wof straight away with no issues you’ve got yourself a customer for life THANK YOU !!!”

“I have called for an estimate and avaibility of some components for my car, the guy have found the parts for me in no time, and also available the next day. Reccomended”

“I recieved an excellent service here..they patiently worked though my questions and poor terminology and helped me pick the right parts for my vehicle. I thoroughly recommend using Basis and I'm really glad I've found this place for future bits i need.”
