Title: Mechanic in Darwin?
Post by: Traveller on May 04, 2014, 01:03:37 PM

Does anyone know of a good mechanic in Darwin to get a Patrol serviced while we are there?

Thanks in advance.

Paul's Service Centre (Repco franchise), Winnellie, ph +61 8 8941 1322. Paul McCourt is the Proprieter and I took two Patrols there over many years.  Excellent workmanship.

My strong advice, is not to touch Kerry Nissan.  However if you want some entertainment, go to their service centre about 4pm and just listen to and watch the pissed off clients arguing for what they allegedly paid for......

Thanks Topndr, I really appreciate the advise. It is always a worry trusting someone with your vehicle, hoping they do the right thing.

I had heard that Kerry Nissan was a place to be avoided, and that made me worry even more about finding a good workshop.

Cheers.  :cheers:

Yeah, someone should record it and make a TV show.  ;D
