Scott Williams Motors Ltd has been a fixture on Union Street in Hawera for more than 25 years, built around owner Scott Williams's more than three decades in the automotive trade. Scott has owned the business for over 28 years and is a qualified technician himself, and the workshop's approach — professional, friendly, and reliable — reflects that long-standing hands-on ownership.
The workshop handles the full spread of mechanical work a vehicle owner might need: general repairs and servicing, Warrant of Fitness checks, engine overhauls, breakdown support, automatic transmission flushes, and car computer code checking. Scott Williams Motors is also a brake specialist, and covers wheel alignments, shocks and suspension, tyres, and both steel rims and mag wheels. Whether it's a routine service or a bigger mechanical job, the team is set up to handle it under one roof.
Beyond the workshop floor, Scott Williams Motors also runs a car valet and grooming service, offering a Standard Groom, a Full Groom, and other grooming options for customers wanting their vehicle looking as good as it runs. On the retail side, the shop stocks a range of tyre brands — GoodRide, Maxxis, Mickey Thompson, Vitora and Kumho Tyre — along with mags, wheels, and general automotive parts and products, including specific items like WOF services for trailers and bikes, code checkers, and Mongoose branded products.
Scott Williams Motors is a genuinely long-serving team. Alongside Scott himself, Kelly Evans has been the administration manager since 2002, and Steve Purdom, a qualified technician, is also a Warrant of Fitness Certified Mechanic. The team includes Amy White in the office and valet side, automotive apprentice Jayden Rangi-Hutchinson working through a trade certificate, and technicians Jamie Hassell and Ryan Blackburn rounding out the workshop. That combination of decades of experience and newer apprentices coming through gives the shop both consistency and depth.
