About
Meet Simon — the "Slim" behind Slim's Garage
Simon's been fixing cars for 35 years: every make, every model, and every trick other workshops pull. That's exactly why he does things differently.
Tell people the truth, charge a fair price, do the job properly the first time. It's the approach that earned him the Leader Small Business Award — voted Melbourne's Favourite Mechanic by his own customers.
- Warranty-safe logbook servicing. By law you can service your new car anywhere — we follow the manufacturer's schedule and stamp the book.
- Honest, every time. A clear quote before we start and a phone call before anything extra.
Word of Mouth
What customers say
Sample reviews shown while we gather Simon's Google reviews.
Found the fault two other workshops had missed, fixed it the same day and came in under the quote.
Logbook service done properly, book stamped, no upsell. He rang before doing anything extra.
Honest run-down on my daughter's first car: what it needed now and what could wait.

Good to Know
Frequently asked questions
Will a logbook service at Slim's void my new-car warranty?
No. Under Australian Consumer Law you're free to have your logbook servicing done by any qualified mechanic — it doesn't have to be the dealer. We service to your manufacturer's schedule and stamp your logbook, so your new-car warranty stays fully intact.
How long does a service take?
Most general and logbook services are done the same day — often within a few hours. Bigger jobs may take longer, and we'll always give you a clear timeframe before we start.
How much does a service cost?
It depends on your car and what it needs. We'll always give you an upfront, honest quote before any work starts — no surprises.
What happens if you find something else wrong?
We call you first. You'll get a clear explanation and a price before any extra work happens — nothing gets done without your say-so.
How do I change or cancel a booking?
Just reply to your confirmation email or give the workshop a call and we'll sort it out.
