Ricky and his team came recommended to me from family when I moved to the area. He's looked after my car for a couple of years, and helped get another relative's car roadworthy in order to sell it. Thanks guys!

These boys are legends! Rolled in at 4.30pm Friday with a snapped wheel stud, about to go away for weekend with the family. Boys were busy but made room and got me fixed up just before closing, absolute legends!
