T M Autos is an MTA assured workshop in "The Orange Building" at 10 Puketapu Road in Taradale, Napier. The website says it has served Napier and the wider Hawke's Bay for 15 years. It offers WOF checks on the day for cars, utes, SUVs, trucks and electric vehicles, along with general repairs and maintenance, pre-purchase checks, and muffler and exhaust repair. The website says it also makes exhaust systems. The technicians are certified to diagnose and repair electric vehicles, and one is a Mitsubishi factory-trained technician. The workshop says it keeps customers updated on big jobs and gives pricing before it starts repairs.
Customers mention fair pricing, efficient staff and trustworthy service most often. One reviewer had a pre-purchase inspection, and another had a replacement front light unit for an older Barina, which the team found in the second hand market. A third came in for a WOF on the recommendation of a friend and said the team were reliable. Our pick in Taradale for a WOF or a pre-purchase check from a workshop that explains each step.
