why us
our story
East City Auto Repairs was founded by three close friends who shared a passion for quality vehicle repairs. After many years working in dealerships and international workshops, they wanted to offer the same level of care without the dealership price tag.
Their goal was to provide honest advice, excellent workmanship, and a welcoming environment for locals needing a trustworthy mechanic. Today, that same spirit of transparency, fairness, and commitment lives on in everything we do.

TESTIMONIALS
What our clients say about us
East City Auto Repairs have been absolutely fantastic with their service, care and attention to detail. I have had my car serviced by them several times and I am so happy with how my car is running. While car is being serviced you can actually sit and watch them from a viewing room... It goes without saying that the service as well from the staff especially Kiri the manager is awesome. Warm, friendly and very professional. Well done East City Auto.
5-Star Google Review
East City Auto Repairs provided outstanding service! I went in for a WOF, new tyres, and a wheel alignment, and I couldn't be happier. Huge shoutout to Kiri, who was the best mechanic I’ve ever dealt with! He took the time to explain both the work they completed and what might need attention at the next service, so I could be prepared. This really put my mind at ease. The car drives perfectly now - smooth and aligned just right. The team was friendly, efficient, and the pricing was exactly as quoted, with no hidden surprises. I highly recommend East City Auto Repairs, especially if you get Kiri on the job.
