Htown Motors NZ

My car broke down on my holiday and I took the car to this place, my insurance company towed my car to his workshop. The quote was too expensive to fix so I decided that I would tow it back home, but he wouldn't let my car out of the gate. He took my car and demanded $280 for no work done. If he would have told me, I would not take it there. I should have recorded our conversation on the phone, but I didn't think I would get scammed. I reported it to the police; they told us this is not MTA approved mechanics and told us to call Hamilton Council, if I have longer than 1 week in Hamilton, I would not let this go. I took the car to Auckland Mechanic and the guy checked my car without any charge. It just shows how some people can be dishonest and still get away with it. This Htown mechanic is the same as Mobile Mechanics Hamilton. Both are the same business. My car is the Purple Mazda Verisa. If you going to say that you dont know me. My insurance have records so does the police. BEWARE. If you go to this mechanic, please ask about the price and record the conversation. Make sure that you have evidence so they cannot take advantage of you. If he takes your car, locks the gate and demands money that was no in the discussion, gather your evidence and report it to the police.
