Most vehicles first registered from 1 January 2000 need a WOF once a year. Older vehicles need one every six months. The expiry date is on the label on your windscreen. Bring it in a week or two before it runs out.

Yes, most of the time. A WOF takes about 45 minutes to an hour. Call ahead on 022 071 9029 and we will tell you the best time to come in.

We show you what failed and explain why, then quote you for the repair before doing anything. You are free to take it elsewhere. If we do the repair, the re-check is straightforward.

Yes, and it is free with any service or repair. There are a limited number, so ask for one when you book rather than on the day.

You get a quote before we start. Every vehicle is different, so call or send a booking request describing the problem and we will give you a realistic price.

As a rule, every 10,000 kilometres or every six to twelve months, whichever comes first. Diesels, turbos and higher-kilometre vehicles usually want it sooner.

Yes. Japanese, European, American, petrol, diesel, hybrid and EV. We are a general workshop, not a single-brand specialist.

Yes. We service utes, vans and small fleets, and can work around your jobs to keep the vehicle off the road for as little time as possible.

Yes. We can write a quote for a WINZ or work-related vehicle grant. Tell us what the form needs and we will set it out properly.

In New Lynn and nearby, yes. Ask when you book and we will sort out a time.

Talk to us when you book and we will confirm what we accept. Payment is due when you collect the vehicle.

Saturday 8:30am to 1:00pm. We are closed Sundays and public holidays.

Need a WOF or a service this week.

Call the workshop and we will tell you straight away when we can take your vehicle. Or send a booking request and we will come back to you.
