Rang Lance on Saturday when all other mechanics were shut and he was so quick and professional to assist me. He had to order in the part and by Tuesday I was back on the road. Told me a breakdown of the very reasonably priced service and paid over the phone. Highly recommend using Lance to anyone and will be using him again in the future. Thanks againread more

Ben Ritacca is a straight-up guy, obviously knows his stuff and manages to get more done with a wrench in an hour than I do in a weekend. Sized and priced the work ahead of time and validated the quality of his workmanship after the fact. Highly recommended!read more

Recently needed rear brakes replaced and a 100k service on my SSV Commodore with Lance recently, he is very thorough, informative and more importantly trustworthy. He did a great job replacing the front brakes a few months back, very well priced and honest, will continue to use in the future - Lance is a fantastic mechanic. Highly recommended.read more

I cant recommend Ben Murdock from the Northern Beaches highly enough! Ben is a genuine, professional and honest bloke who also happens to be a great mechanic. I loved the convenience of having my car fixed at home while my toddler slept! Best part was that it doesn’t cost any more than taking it to a regular workshop. I’ve got Ben on speed dial and will definitely be calling him again!read more

I highly recommend Alex from Blue Toro Mechanics based here in Perth WA, prompt, efficient service for one and Alexs' knowledge base of our 1997 Ford is far better than me trying to use Google. Customer service is excellent, what more can I say... Oh yeah, service above and beyond what you would expect. Thanks again Alexread more

Talking from experience, it's hard to find a good and trusted mechanic for my cars. Once I've locked onto one, I never let Go. My BT mechanic Darren is excellent! That's all I gotta say.
