Inspection Station
Two real workshops. Not a van
We work out of proper garages at 238 Nudgee Rd in Hendra and 187 Logan Rd in Woolloongabba. Full hoists, full diagnostics. We do not rock up in someone’s driveway.
QLD Government approved and Repco-authorised
Every certificate we issue is valid across Queensland for transfer of ownership, re-registration, & interstate vehicle imports. We are on the official register of approved inspection stations.
No ambush. No surprises.
If your car fails, we hand you a written list of what needs fixing and what it costs. You decide what to do next. We do not hold your certificate over your head to win workshop work.
European specialists
If you drive a BMW, Audi, Mercedes, VW, or Volvo, you are in the right place. We know what trips an RWC on your specific model, and we will not charge you dealership prices to sort it.

I would prefer giving this company zero stars! After dealing with your Hendra branch, booking a car in for a service a week before, dropping it off at 8am, when your staff only arrive at 8am, being told the oil change service will be done by lunch, just to collect the car at 14:00 without it being serviced after two phone calls that confirmed once technicians are back from their break they will complete the job and the vehicle will be ready......I found the vehicle in the exact spot I parked it the morning. Addendum to review: Car One did call after this was posted and offered the exact same explanation as was written below. Despite their denial of poor and inaccurate communication, the fact of the matter remains: I was told that the car would be ready by lunch time, and it was not, the company now tries to explain away their inadequate communications and wants to shift blame to the customer. Rating remains unchanged.

A thank you note ! I had a great experience with Car One Automotive. The team was professional, honest, and very helpful from the moment I contacted. They took the time to explain my trivial questions. The service was quick, fairly priced, and there were no surprises with the cost. I felt I could really rely and be looked after. Definitely be coming back for future servicing. Highly recommend Car One Automotive to anyone looking for reliable and friendly service! - Konan

25 days ago i bought a car from them, everything seems fine until yesterday that i started hearing weird noises from the right side, i check and is completely missing a bracket on the right side as you can see from the photos, i go to them wondering if they can fix it since they forgot it and they said it'll cost me, this type of stuff is very dangerous since the wheel can come off, wouldn't suggest them honestly, disgusting behaviour

Mechanics forgot to put a bracket back on and almost lost a wheel on motorway, very dangerous and disappointed.
Was told it’s not their fault and want to charge me for their mistake
Absolutely disgusting behaviour

I am always impressed by the Hendra car one automotive team. They give you a full breakdown of the costs and let you know what parts/work may be required. You can then give them the go ahead or choose the work you feel comfortable in paying. Prompt, freindly and efficient service 5/5.

This is will be the place I will always be taking my car to be serviced to.

Brought my Mazda in for a general service and a water-related troubleshooting issue. The team at Hendra were thorough and prompt with the main service. The additional diligence and care they put into the other issue was outstanding, working on it for far longer than anyone initially thought they'd have to. For this to occur, especially as a first-time customer with a week-old booking was amazing. Very genuine, honest team. Will definitely be returning for future upkeep. Thanks guys!
