Auto City, at 224 Barbadoes Street in Central Christchurch, is a family-owned car workshop run by a husband and wife team. The business was established in 1984, and the website says the team has more than 60 years of combined experience. Services include mechanical and auto electrical repairs, servicing by certified mechanics, WOF inspections, pre-purchase inspections for used cars, tyres, batteries, and steering and suspension work. The workshop is open Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm. Phone 03 366 1305. The website says the workshop also serves Phillipstown, Waltham, Sydenham and nearby suburbs.
Customers praise the friendly, informative staff and the communication. One reviewer says they recommend the team for tyres, batteries and other work, and that a repair cost a third of what another garage quoted, with a few extra things tweaked for free. Another says the service is excellent every time. Motor Works, 0.3 km away, rates lower. Our pick in Central Christchurch for an honest, friendly workshop with tyres and servicing under one roof.
