What our customers say...
Recently popped in for my WOF and was very lucky to be taken last minute. The whole process was easy and I found the customer service from everyone to be extremely friendly and accommodating. I remembered having great service here when living in NZ several years ago & so happy to see it is still the same. I will definitely trust the Motor Works team for all my mechanical needs for the future.
