Reviews

  • Charlie Stephen

My family and I have used this workshop for coming on two generations. Their work has always been of a high quality and reasonably priced. I have recently had my car at Bob Watson Service Centre for RWC check. The check was done same day and cost was as quoted, very happy with outcome. Highly recommend this workshop. Five Stars

  • Steven Hill

Adam is very ethical and helpful. He diagnosed quickly an auto transmission failure that I then followed up with VW to be a probable recall issue for the dealership to repair, which he hasn't charged for. I always take our vehicles there for great value servicing and trusted advice on any repairs required.

  • Chloe Vuong

Really impressed with the service I received at Bob Watson’s. I unexpectedly showed up when my clutch failed and I had to be towed to the nearest mechanic I could find and they were honest with the advice they gave. They were prompt and kept me up to date with the repair, will definitely be going back!

  • Red Reddington

Barista-type coffee, a chic-looking receptionist greeting you or a nice lounge... No, none of these await you at Bob Watson. Instead you get no-frills down-to-earth service, good pricing and advice. I will recommend this centre to BMW owners.

  • Arthur Paganias

After being told by colleagues and friends that European cars must be serviced at dealerships I was initially hesitant in taking my BMW X5 to a non dealership mechanic. After getting a major service by the guys at Bob Watson my mentality on

  • Coraline Kidson

What a stroke of luck to be stuck in Melbourne hundreds of miles from home and a roadside service that was anything but helpful. Had a split fuel line with diesel flowing over engine and roadside service said to find a mechanic and be towed

  • Hugh Charlton

Untrustworthy management, excessive charges, a disorganised business. Brought car in for roadworthy inspection. Quoted $150 for inspection only, but billed $350 as they did a half hour of 'work' I did not ask for or approve. The stated work

  • Shaun Seymour

The boys at Bob Watsons have looked after my car for nearly 3 years now and I can't recommend them highly enough. They always provide top-notch service and fully explain what's going on with my car. They give me advice on keeping it running

  • surfuse1

Every time I have come here for a service, the lads have made the effort to have a chat to me and get to know me as a person, not just a cashed up consumer. Their experience shows as they can explain very simply to me exactly what I need to

  • Valda R.

I’ve had my car serviced and repaired there since 2011. I appreciate their attention to detail, which has meant that my car has been in excellent condition for the past 8 years and has many more years of life in her yet. I can not recommend

  • Brydie Shackleford

The mechanic was honest and upfront with me. He did his best to explain to me the specifics of what my car needed, without being patronising or impatient. I even gave him the wrong information about the make of my car, and when he realised

Adam and his team are great. We have had two VWs (Passat and Golf) and they have always serviced them. Why would you go to a VW dealer when you can go to Bob Watson instead?
