Scott was fantastic - turned up when he said he would and took the time to explain what he was doing with the car. I took 1 minute out of my day to hand scott the key and that was it. Not only that but service was cheaper than a garage and i didnt end up with a list of essential work which normally happens when you take a car to… a garage.
"I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Scott.
"I have… had absolutely no trouble so far and it has been a decent 2 and a half years. I have found his service to be reliable.
"Comes recommended.
"I work at the University in Wellesley Street and Scott came and serviced the vehicle in the carpark. At this busy time of year (exam time) it was one less… thing to worry about and completely hassle free. Scott's charges are reasonable and below the usual (Nissan Newmarket). I believe he was also more thorough - the car runs very well now. Scott was on time and reliable. He is a thoroughly nice person and I feel confident with his work.
I've asked Scott to send me a reminder for the next service and he is now 'my mechanic' - I don't need to go elsewhere for car repairs or maintenance. Please feel very confident to use this business.
Thanks Scott!

I had barely put the reciever down when Scott returned my initial phone call and within minutes, my car was booked. I found this to be most convenient and was pleased to know that I did'nt have to go through the hassle of dropping my car off and hitching around until it could be finished.
Scott arriived 15 minutes early and explained everything he… was testing my vehicle for before pin-pointing the problem and fixing it at a reasonable price. In under 45 minutes, I was up and running again!
My Dad happened to be around when he came the first time and booked an appointment for himself along with another one for me. He had a truck that had been sitting for close to a year, which Scott repaired for less than half of what dad was quoted by a local workshop. Needless to say, there was another happy chappy in the house because he had finally found a reliable and reasonable mechanic to service hs truck AT HOME.
On the second visit, Scott provided me with options for repair that included both new and used parts, depending on what I could afford to have done, along with his recommendations for both. That he took the tme to look over it twice, called and then spoke with me about his concerns, indicated that he was a perfectionist and that I was being given good, sound advice.
Overall, I am impressed with the promptness,service, advice, reliability and most importantly the Integrity with which this individual operates and think he is a credit to his Trade as well as his Profession.
Both my Father and I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Scott to our family, friends and others (which is rare to say the least!). In fact, we already have ;)
I certainly would use Scott again and recommend him to others looking for similar work to be done.
"After years of dealing with over priced, underperforming caveman type mechanics where the work was done by the apprentice and charged for as If it was done by the owner ( and was usually twice the quote in both price and time )........... Scotts great .
Prompt , professional and not the apprentice, seemingly a damn good mechanic ( jobs only been done 2 days !)
i just hope he doesnt get too busy or double his prices with all these good… write-ups !
"What I really like is he always picks up his phone on the first attempt! Very professional. He just gets on with the job, no mucking about.
Highly recommended.

So when it came to looking for someone qualified and good value to service my car, I called a few places, and went to a couple of websites, but unfortunately when I called some places, I spoke to receptionists who couldn't give me much… more details than that was on the website :( and had to wait for the techies to call me back (is tomorrow ok? not really...) Other places were around the $200 mark...a bit over budget...
So like yourself I came across the NoCowboys site and found Scott Mobile Mechanical. Getting a mobile mech was appealing for obvious reasons but I was a little sceptical about them being able to do everything a workshop could do, like getting under the car etc etc.
So I called, and Scott picked up the call, answered all my queries, and at his price, it seemed like a pretty good deal so I took a punt & booked a service for Thurs morning 8am.
In a nutshell, this guy came on time, and was extremely quick and thorough. He had everything in his van - oil, filters, air compressor, tools, and other checking equipment I've never seen before; and he must've checked about 150 different things including tightening up some hoses and even lubricating my door hinges and my squeaky boot hinges; it was also quite impressive to see all my 4 wheels taken off and the car raised on stands - and this was all just on the side of the road outside my office!!
Another advantage was I got to see the whole process and ask questions and he was cool with it - I think this would be a little uncomfortable for all in a noisy & dirty workshop environment.
And I also didn't have to worry about any apprentices or newbies working on my car and potentially not doing something right. The whole thing took less than one and a half hours - this guy really just gets on with it.
At the end he took the car for a test drive just to listen for any unusual sounds, and check steering, alignment etc.
Obviously I feel v. good about this guy's level of professionalism and a price that's quite exceptional. I know he's busy so just hope he keeps the price down in future!
I just wish we could take him back to the UK with us!
