About the company

Goldstar Automotive is an independent Land Rover and Jaguar specialist workshop founded in 1998 and located in Invermay, Tasmania. The directors' experience in the industry dates back to 1984, when they worked at a JRA (Jaguar Rover Australia) dealer.

The business is not associated with Land Rover or Jaguar companies. Paul is named as part of the business. The team uses a range of specialist Land Rover and Jaguar tools and equipment. Main services include logbook servicing, general mechanical repairs, and brake inspection and repair.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Across Goldstar Automotive's work in Launceston, customers consistently highlight the depth of expertise brought to complex jobs, with several describing how the team resolved long-standing faults other workshops had been unable to trace. Diagnostics involving specialised equipment come up often, and reviewers repeatedly note that vehicles were fitted in at short notice when circumstances demanded it, including one interstate breakdown that was turned around without disrupting a tight travel schedule. Paul is named for his honest, knowledgeable manner and the care taken during vehicle sales and handover, while Sandra and Scott draw praise for professional and friendly service in the workshop.

Clear communication stands out, from quoting through to explaining repair options, and the pricing is described as fair for the quality delivered, even where work is acknowledged as not inexpensive. Servicing and repairs span makes such as Jaguar, Land Rover Discovery and a range of other vehicles, with buyers also noting that cars are thoroughly checked and delivered as promised. Tidiness, punctuality and a willingness to stay back late to complete handovers are mentioned, and the standard of workmanship is reflected in the absence of follow-up problems after repairs.

I was treated with utmost respect from the office staff. I was driven to my Motel and they loaned me a phone charger because l forgot mine, now that's service. Guhrie's Jaguar from Melbourne told me "Gold Star" in Launceston are the expert's for transmission and mechanical. And that's from proven experience, not just Jaguar but across the board. So after years I've at last found a reliable quality business that l can trust. Now l can drive my S Type Jaguar with the "Jag smile" that never fails.

I want to thank Goldstar for rescuing us from an awkward breakdown predicament while interstate, and with a looming inflexible return ferry booking. I really appreciate that you somehow fitted our job into your already busy workload, and got us on our way with the shortest possible delay. Even staying back late so that we could pick up the car was very much appreciated. The workmanship was faultless as we have had no subsequent issues.

My car through a faint code that only 3 automotive businesses in Launceston are equipped with correct tools to use, business time of the year and they squeezed me in fixing the issue asap. Thank you!!

I am a 69 years old. Today Paul Gill caused me to feel terrified, injured and anxious for my 97 year old Mother.

We recently purchased a car from Goldstar Automotive where Paul and his team were very professional, knowledgeable and extremely friendly not only during the sales and handover process but post delivery. Paul ensured the car was in perfect working order before we drove away happy and content with our purchase. We will continue to get the car serviced with Goldstar Automotive due to the many positive reviews endorsing their quality of work and pricing.
