What Our Clients Say
New to Tauranga and was recommended Premier Automotive. They were very knowledgeable about common issues with my Audi, performed a thorough service, transmission service, replaced pollen and air filters, picked up a puncture in my rear tyre and fixed it, solved an oil leak issue and showed me exactly where it was leaking. All done with a super quick turnaround and a great price. Will definitely be going back for services and any repairs on my Audi. Thanks team!
I was very impressed with getting in to see the mechanics, received a very good comprehensive service, well priced. Recommend this business.
Been going to Premier Autos for many years and they never fail to give me wonderful friendly service and quality care of my car! They are so helpful and knowledgeable and go the extra mile for their customers! Absolutely highly recommend them!
Lovely people to deal with. Friendly, helpful and offer the best advice. Will call me with recommendations before proceeding with any work. Highly recommend.
Chris is a great mechanic. Very personable, friendly and easy to deal with.
Chris and his team are amazing. I recently had to have a lot of work done on my car, which included a full service, replacement of the air clock spring, and warrant. I was advised of the of the things I thought were major ended up not being a big issue. Simply an Airbag plug had come loose, etc. I can not recommend these guys enough.
I have always found Premiere Automotive to be efficient and competitive with their pricing. They are also responsive and communicate well if any issues arise. My experience is that the work is completed on the basis of the quoted estimate, so there are no surprises.
Excellent service, Reasonably priced and proven trustworthy. Appreciated the clear communication and realistic timelines.
I bought a used car in 2018, not realizing it had an issue. So, I went online looking for a trusted mechanic, and then I found Premier Automotive reviews were positive. So, I said to myself, "Let me try this one." I met Chris, and he was helpful and honest. Ever since then, my husband and I have taken our cars only to them. Special thanks as well to Taryn, who does an amazing job at the front office, and to Luke for fixing my car problem recently. 😊
Good communication, great service and well priced. Definitely recommend.
Great experience on regular servicing and WOFs.Totally trustworthy. Why would you go anywhere else.
A good practical and professional job on the automatic gearbox of a Mazda Verisa. It was looking like trouble but these guys resolved the problems with a minimum of fuss and at a good price. A fantastic result and much relieved.
Great job diagnosing my transmission issue and promptly sorted the problem. Great to deal with. Thank you.
I recently had my car serviced and the tyres changed at Premier Automotive, and I couldn't be more impressed! The team provided exceptional service from start to finish. They were professional, efficient, and clearly knowledgeable. The quality of their work has earned my complete trust. I'll definitely be returning for all my future automotive needs. Highly recommended, Chris & the team!! 🙂
Amazing team, the service is exceptional and nothing is a problem for these guys. Would 100% recommend them to anyone needing vehicle maintenance or repairs.
Chris and the team are fantastic and really easy to deal with and made it a painless experence getting my ute fixed
Awesome outfit for Europeans cars took my e36 there to get fixed! the quote was 200-300 dollars and it came out on the low side which is awesome when businesses do that! would recommend especially for BMW owners. I would go back again next time I needed work done.
Chris and his team at Premiere Automotive do all the work on our cars, both personal and for our business. Trustworthy and efficient. Thanks

I recently took my car to the Premier Automotive for some repairs and was impressed with their services. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and they were able to quickly diagnose and fix the issue with my vehicle
Chris and his team were able to squeeze me in for an urgent repair on real short notice, it took some nutting out, problem was sorted out and back on the road. Thanks guys for being so accommodating.

The Dualis needed new inside car handle and exterior lights problems. All fixed in shortest time. So amazed by service here.
Came here to get my timing belt done on my vw wagon. The team completed the job quickly and efficiently, they knew I was going to be back in the area early afternoon and were able to sort by mid day. Incredible. They were the best quoted price as well, I couldn't recommend them more highly. Thanks!
Good bunch of guys well looked after no problems what so ever..great service
I have never before been quoted for work to be done by a mechanic and the work ended up coming in under the value quoted…and ahead of schedule! Thanks so much Chris, you’re my go-to for sure!
Chris is a pleasant bloke who is honest and professional and doesn't try to upsell people. His team are thorough well organized and get the job done without mucking the customer around. Customer service is extremely good. Prices are fair and honest. With so many Cowboys and rip off merchants in Tauranga. Premier Automotive lives up to its name. Definitely happy with them.
The guys at Premier Automotive are so efficient and professional. Very reasonable prices. Thoroughly recommended for taking care of your European car.
Every time I use Premier, Chris and the team are quick, thorough, courteous and extremely helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone. My last experience was a break down. My vehicle was towed one day and returned home to me the next day working as good as new. Now that is service 👍😊
