Expert WOF repairs
If your vehicle needs WOF repairs, we focus on fixing the root issue properly, not applying a quick patch.
Because we specialise in European vehicles, we know exactly what common wear issues to look for before they turn into costly problems.
For all safety-critical work, we refuse to use cheap, unknown components, installing only genuine, OE, or trusted aftermarket parts. This standard allows us to back our parts and labour with a 12-month or 20,000-kilometre warranty alongside your Consumer Guarantees Act protections.

Most WOF failures are caused by routine wear that could have been caught early through regular servicing.
Because a thorough service overlaps with a warrant check, your WOF inspection is half price when booked alongside any full scheduled service. Beyond standard maintenance to keep your car reliable year-round, we also offer specialised vehicle assessments, including comprehensive pre-purchase inspections and pre-trip checks before you hit the road.

A warrant of fitness inspection can only be done by an authorised inspector, at an authorised site such as Wellington European. The inspection is a comprehensive safety inspection, including but not limited to brakes, tyres, lights, steering, suspension and structure, ensuring the safe operation of your vehicle.
Book a diagnostic if warning lights appear or the car feels off. Scan tools check fault codes and live data to narrow down the likely cause. Next steps are explained first, with costs depending on what the initial checks show.
We start with a visual inspection and diagnostic check to rule out belt faults, system errors, or major leaks. Next, we evacuate the old refrigerant and pull a deep vacuum on the system to remove moisture and test for leaks. Finally, we recharge the system with the exact factory-specified amount of fresh refrigerant.
Yes. Diagnosing modern vehicles requires a strategic approach rather than just replacing the part listed on a fault code. We use the initial scan results to guide our testing—whether that means analysing live operational data or performing a smoke test to isolate air leaks—ensuring we find and fix the root cause of the issue accurately.
Yes, you can easily combine your servicing, tyres, and WOF into a single booking. To keep your day running smoothly, we prioritise the WOF and servicing at the start of your visit, allowing us to catch any issues early in case additional work or parts are needed. Performance and tuning services are also available if required.
