Being new to Toronto and needing to have my car plated I was faced with the task of finding an auto shop that would perform my provincial safety inspection and (hopefully) not rip me off. I took a look on Yelp and was led to Spadina Auto. I was definitely not disappointed.
The positive reviews were SPOT ON. Wayne is excellent and took the time to talk me through what the safety inspection entailed. He definitely knows his stuff and runs his business in an honest way. The inspection price (including emissions) ran me about $120. The inspection was pretty timely and nothing groundbreaking came of it. The verdict was that I needed some small break work (not a shock since I'd been a while since I had anything done to mine).
As far as I'm concerned Spadina Auto is my go-to shop in Toronto and I'll be taking my car there for whatever it needs. The shop charges fair prices, Wayne knows his stuff, and the business is run in an ethical way.
If you need an auto shop definitely go here. You'll be in good hands!
