Automotive business in New Zealand

“Alex sorted my Mazda Bongo which urgently needed a WOF on Labor Monday when no other places were open. He was super friendly, honest and reliable. He took time to explain things & treated me as a friend. The price was very fair. It's hard to find someone with a much integrity in the trades. Thanks again mate!”

“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!!”

“​If you’re looking for a service centre that combines technical expertise with genuine integrity, go to BJ Automotive and ask for Umesh. It’s rare to find a shop that treats your car as if it were their own. Fast, fair, and highly skilled—I’ll definitely be back for my next service! Highly recommended”

“Mechanics are all shady rip offs. But not this guy. Honest and affordable. Clean tidy lounge and workshop actually. Won't do work that isn't needed and is happy to explain what went wrong and why things need doing. No shady stuff here!”

“We were here twice for repairs and were very satisfied with the service and the prices both times. Very friendly staff and quick appointment scheduling Highly recommended!”

“I regularly utilise Liverpool Automotive for my five vehicle's, the team are very efficient and skilled and have never let me down. I would fully recommend them to look after your vehicles.”

“Thomas and the team at DJ Automotive are absolute legends! Both our work van and our car had major issues at the same time which left us stressing about getting to work. Our work vans wheel came off and it was left down the road from our house, we were worried about a towing fee on top of the cost getting both cars fixed. Thomas arranged to go retrieve the vehicle straight away that day and started ordering parts for both vehicles. The following 2 days him and the team worked away on repairing the vans wheel and also replacing the blown radiator in our car. The prices were reasonable too. We were very thankful to have a mechanic that is knowledgeable and could sort us out fast. I would highly recommend DJ Automotive if you want a professional, friendly and timely service.”

“Super happy with the service from North City Automotive today. Very friendly and efficient. Thanks guys”
