Gave me a loan car while I waited for my car to be serviced. Was ready in 3.5 hours after drop off. Chose this mechanic as their workshop was very clean. Staff are very professional.

Trent and the team at GC Service Centre are in a league of their own. Going to the mechanics is always a bit nerve-racking for me but they really did a lot to ease those nerves and make me feel like my car would be looked after by honest and diligent professionals who really knew what they were talking about. I won't take my care anywhere else and I strongly recommend them to everyone I meet.

I booked in with these guys for my air conditioning to be fixed after using another company who didnt fix the issue. I based my decision on the reviews I read here. They were all 5 stars and I have to agree with the other reviewers. The guys were so professional and explained everything so well to me. I was made fully aware of what the problem was and advised to come right back if I had any more issues (which I dont anticipate because my aircon is working perfectly now). I will definitely go back to the Gold Coast Service centre. We are a two car family so both cars will go there from now

Cannot recommend highly enough! I picked this place based off the Google reviews and I am very glad I did. Staff were very friendly, did a great service and talked me through what needed to be fixed and why. Also excellent turn around times with both the service and repairs. My car drives so much more nicely now!

We started bringing our car to Trent after seeing the excellent reviews he and his team received and we were not disappointed. They provide a fantastic, professional service and we couldn't be happier with their work every time. And the car comes back spotlessly clean which is an absolute bonus.
