What we do

One workshop for the whole car.

Everything from the yearly Warrant of Fitness to a major mechanical repair, handled under one roof on Park Road. We work on every make and model, petrol, diesel and hybrid.

WOF Inspections

MTA-authorised Warrant of Fitness checks done thoroughly, with a plain-English run-down of anything that needs doing. No surprises.

COF Certificates

Certificate of Fitness inspections for the heavier vehicles, sorted on site and signed off properly.

Vehicle Servicing

Full and interim services to keep your car reliable and your running costs down. We service every make and model.

Brakes

Pads, discs, fluid and the full brake health check. We tell you what's worn now and what can safely wait.

Steering & Suspension

Shocks, struts, bushes and alignment-related work so the car tracks straight and rides the way it should.

Diagnostics

Warning light on the dash? We plug in, read the codes and find the actual cause instead of guessing at parts.

Auto-Electrical

Batteries, starters, alternators, wiring and electrical faults traced and repaired by hand.

Mechanical Repairs

From the routine to the awkward, Danny and the team explain the fix, the cost and the why before any work starts.

Why Miramar Auto Centre

Straight answers, fair prices, work you can see.

Danny, Richie and the team have built one of Wellington's most-recommended workshops the slow way: by being honest. You get told what needs doing now, what can safely wait, and exactly what it costs before any work starts.

Reviewers talk about the same things over and over: mechanics who explain the job clearly (one customer was sent a video of the repair), who go out of their way on a busy Saturday, and who treat people fairly. That is the whole point of the place.

“Danny and the team are genuinely the most amazing mechanics ever! They're incredibly transparent, honest, and always take the time to explain what's going on, which can be hard to find in a mechanic these days. I always feel confident that my car is in good hands and that I'm being treated fairly. I genuinely cannot recommend these guys more, they're the best in the business!”

“All I can say is the world needs more people like Danny and Richie in it!!! We broke down on the side of SH1 just before the ferry terminal. It was the only place we could find that was open on a Saturday morning. Danny was working alone but called in Richie for some extra help and they had us back up and running by mid day. He even took the time to video what he had done to explain everything to us. The best mechanics I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. You guys are legends!!!”

Inside the workshop

A proper set-up on Park Road.

Two hoists, modern diagnostic gear and a tidy front counter. Drop in, wait in the comfortable reception, or leave the keys and we'll call when it's done.
