" ...Just wanted to say thanks for all the effort over the last four years "
"I recently got a WOF reminder from you guys forwarded through from my old address - and while I'd love to come get the Camry serviced with you boys again, sadly I've moved to Wellington and while I survived driving Ellerslie to Avondale, for a few years, for services, I don't think I can make it up from Welly!
But since I hold you gents in high esteem, for the great work you've done since I started bringing the car to you guys in 2003... do you know any good mechanics in Wellington?
If not, don't worry about it - but just wanted to say thanks for all the effort over the last four years, and all the best!"

" When I think KAAR, I think super efficienct and thoughtful "
"It's rare that you hear people raving about their mechanics, but I have been raving about Kelvin Armstrong Auto Repairs for a month now ...I was a little unsure as to where to start with the repair, panel beaters first or mechanical workshop? The team at KAAR just said leave it with us, we'll sort everything out for you. The following day, they contacted me to inform me, when I should expect the car back, they took me through the repair process and asked if there was anything besides the insurance work I would like done...When I picked up the car it gleamed... all the dents and bumps were gone, and the steering and brakes were fixed...When I think KAAR, I think super efficient and thoughtful. These guys meet your expectations and more."
