Amazingly generous response by Sharron at Tekapo Auto after our hire car was written off by a hit-and-run driver on Queen’s Birthday weekend. She promptly offered us the use of a courtesy car to continue our journey and was just so positive and helpful at every step of the way, despite having no obligation to do so. The very best of people and businesses.

Superb service, arrived in Tekapo on Wednesday with the brakes in our ute seized, dropped the ute Thursday morning and picked it up Friday morning, for a mechanic in a small town to be able to source parts and fix the brake in that timeframe was excellent, the people who work there were more than helpful and we really appreciate their work. Thank you, highly recommend A++++

Our car started making a really loud noise after our trip northwest of Lake Pukaki. Since it was a Saturday, the two closest mechanics to us were in Twizel or Lake Tekapo. After comparing the reviews on this place, we decided to push our car for a longer drive. This was a risk, of course, but as people have already said on this, the workers were honest with their prices and were very welcoming. We got lucky that they were open Saturday morning! Turns out, our exhaust broke and it took them about an hour to fix it all up! Thanks again Tekapo Auto Services!

We had the WOF done on our Ford Econovan ’98. The job was quick, good and people friendly. Thanks!
