Just had my vehicle serviced and warranted. Also restored my very yellow headlights that another place had told me were to far gone. Even fixed a couple of smaller things that needed doing to save them getting worse over time. Fantastic job all round. Good price as well. Thank you.

I’ve gone to Brad Ward Motors on and off over the years, and they’ve always been great, honest, reliable mechanics. I haven’t always been in the financial position to service my car regularly and do what’s needed at the time, I often feel very anxious about the cost, but whenever I’ve taken my car in, I’ve felt reassured and well looked after. The team are understanding, never push unnecessary work, and seem genuinely trustworthy. I’m not entirely sure how their prices compare, but It’s hard to find that kind of honesty and integrity these days, definitely a business worth supporting!

We have two cars, one newish Mazda and a classic Jeep. They can fix, replace, repair both vehicles to keep us safe while on the roads. Brad Ward and his team have excellent and efficient customer service, their workshop is clean and safe with parking available.

Brad is a fantastic guy to deal with. Have had our car in their multiple times and is always up front and honest and unlike most other workshops he actually cares about the state your car leaves in and is not solely focused on money. Couldn't reccomend these guys enough!

Excellent service took the time to go the extra mile to make sure I fully understood just what was involved in the work I was making enquiries about & looked around for the cheapest quotes possible for quality parts to do the job before contacting me with a price AAA+ .Very nice people.

Been using them for years and never had any issues. Very quick to tell you if there's something coming up that needs replacing or cleaning etc even if it's just a heads up so you know there's something that needs doing months from the time. Courtesy cars available and they are also flexible around drop off/pick up times.

Mechanic serving Kumeu

Your trusted mechanic & WOF near Kumeu

Kumeu drivers trust Brad Ward Motors for WOF, servicing, and honest repairs. Worth the run down SH16 to our Henderson workshop - quote, no surprises.

About 16 minutes from Kumeu down SH16, the Northwestern Motorway, into Henderson.

Kumeu is the heart of Auckland's northwest wine country - vineyards, lifestyle blocks, and rural roads spreading out around the township - and it is about sixteen minutes down SH16, the Northwestern Motorway, to our Moselle Ave workshop. That is a longer trip than our close-in suburbs, and we know Kumeu drivers have options closer to home, so we earn the run with honest pricing, straight talk, and work done properly the first time. Kumeu is real country, and the vehicles show it.

A lot of Kumeu households run utes, 4WDs, vans, and wagons that earn their keep - towing trailers, horse floats, and boats, carting feed and gear, and dealing with gravel driveways and unsealed rural roads. That harder use wears a vehicle differently, so we set service intervals to match, with extra attention to brakes, suspension, clutches, bushes, bearings, and undercarriage condition on Kumeu vehicles. Towing especially loads up brakes, cooling, and transmissions, and we check those carefully for Kumeu drivers who tow regularly.

The flip side of Kumeu life is the daily commute - many locals drive the SH16 motorway into the city, and that long open-road running clocks up kilometres quickly and wears tyres, so we look closely at tyres and alignment, because issues you would never notice around the township become real at highway speed. Out here, servicing is not just tidy housekeeping - a breakdown a long way from town is a genuine hassle, and regular maintenance is what catches wear before it leaves you stranded. We are an MTA approved workshop and an NZTA-authorised WOF provider, so your warrant gets done properly.

Every job starts with a quote and we call before any extra work - no surprises on the bill. Courtesy cars are available on request, which really helps when home is out in Kumeu. We work on all makes and models, petrol and diesel, from small cars to light trucks and 4WDs, and Kumeu drivers are welcome any time.

  • Just 16 min from Kumeu, with same-day service on most jobs
