Car Mechanic NOR

i have had a browse on the search function and couldnt turn much up.

i will be driving my car down to perth in the xmas holidays and going overseas for 4 weeks.
in that time id like to get my car serviced as our mechanics in town hav an average reputation...

can anyone recommend a car mechanic NOR (im based in carine) that is reliable and not a ripoff merchant.
 

thanks in advance

I have been going to see

I have been going to see Simon Negas at Negas Autotec in Balcatta for anything i cant do myself for the last 7 years with my old hilux and my new hilux. Has been the best mechanic i have ever dealt with. Funny thing though i found out after a couple of years going to him that he was the Uncle of a mate i went to high school with. So i dont know if he treats me any different but i always still do the ring around to see how his prices compare. His service is top rate too.

I have certainly had a bit of a run of bad mechanics NOR and do any repairs myself, fortunately I am a Nissan driver so breakdowns are extremely rare.

Sometimes its months down the track when you realise some of the dodgy work these pricks have done

See Paul there. He is probably the best mechanic I have worked with and the only fellow that I take my car to. Calls a spade a spade, and is totally blunt when it comes to what needs to be done.

 Hey mate, 

 

Try Terry up at TN Auto's in Wangara. He used to service all the guys cars at GotOne when I worked there, now he services all my families cars too. He runs a really tight ship, you could eat a meal of his workshop floor, he is honest and checks EVERYTHING!! He is a highly recommended mechanic.

Black Gen I would take it to Travis at SS Autos in Wangara. He knows a lot about Jackaroos and does a fantastic job. As an owner operator he relies on reputation and gives flawless service.
