What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

European Car Centre has earned the trust of European vehicle owners in Newcastle, some of whom have returned for more than a decade of servicing without a single issue. A handful of customers describe the front-desk team, with Renee, Erin and Tyson named, as welcoming and professional, taking the time to explain repairs clearly. A number of reviews mention that jobs are finished on schedule and within the quoted price, and that the workshop is spotless with knowledgeable staff. The business takes on major mechanical work, including a full engine rebuild that other shops had declined, turbo and manifold replacement on a Volvo XC90, alternator failure on a Skoda, and ignition and key problems on a vehicle from interstate.

One thing mentioned again and again is the willingness to fit urgent jobs in quickly, particularly for travellers whose plans might otherwise be disrupted, and to find workable solutions when parts are scarce. Servicing of Volkswagen, Mercedes, Skoda and Volvo models features across the feedback, with customers noting fair pricing, clear communication before and after the work, and a general check-over that gave one car a clean report. Long-standing clients describe consistent quality over many years.

Absolutely amazing experience at European Car Centre. From the moment I walked in, the reception staff were welcoming, professional, and incredibly helpful. The mechanics were knowledgeable, honest, and took the time to explain everything clearly about my car. You can really tell the team genuinely cares about their customers and takes pride in their work. The service was outstanding from start to finish. I would highly recommend European Car Centre to anyone driving a European car. Fantastic customer service, excellent workmanship, and an all-around great experience. Definitely my go-to workshop from now on! That’s my car the blue Audi S3 on the hoist

Long time client of this business- honest advice and excellent friendly service. We have had a cheap and cheerful mini and an Audi serviced here and very happy with both. They are not only interested in the top end like some competitors and prices have been more than reasonable. Also do their best to fit in quick checks if required and they have capacity. Happy to recommend.

We were blown away by the excellent care and service we had here. We had a tricky situation with our ignition and the key on a trip down from QLD. Rene and her colleagues helped us with an appointment asap and did an amazing job as they had to be creative with the parts they had on hand to avoid a long wait for the part to come from getmany. Rene took the time to explain what they had been able to do . We are very grateful for your help and great customer service. We would recommend you.
