Craig is an excellent mechanic and runs a really efficient business. He is quick to respond, shares quotes before working on your car and tries to give you as much information as possible. He is very knowledgeable and his team is friendly and precessional.
I am always happy with their service. They are reliable and trustworthy. Keep it up Craig and your team.
Highly recommended. I took my car for a checkup at Autoworks and they suggested a lot of repairs costing a bomb. Then I decided to check Central Car Repairs. Leon checked it thoroughly and advised nothing was wrong with the car. Other Repair shops were just taking the issues I said and suggesting every part related to that area be replaced. The best thing here is that they took time to listen to everything I had to say and at the end of it took a long time to explain all the problem areas. He didn't charge me anything even thought they did a pressure test and drove around to detect issues.
Leon and his team are truly the best. They have provided me with unbelievable service. I got a quote of 26k to fix my car from another company, telling me I needed a new clutch, break pads, new handbrake, and starter motor, and the list went on. I then decided it was time for a second opinion. I took it to CCR, I never mentioned what I was quoted or what problems were supposedly found. It turned out all it needed was a new starter motor and a handbrake adjustment. They checked the car thoroughly, and just 2 days later I drove my car away for under 6k.
So impressed by the service! Needed to replace a headlight bulb in my touareg, which costs an arm and a leg elsewhere, and these gents were extremely fast and attended to it on the spot. Leon was very attentive and made sure the job was done well the first time. If you're looking for good guys who know their stuff and who care about service, this is the place.
