Where's the "other" option in the poll? ;-)

I frequent my local AutoPro shop, because they have always given me great service, and are always happy to order un-stocked items in for me (without requiring a deposit).

Cheers,
Martin.

I usually go to autobarn, for the main reason that its the closest one to me + I like the service there

I voted for Repco but I try Supercheap first for price & avaliability then if I do no good I go to Repco .

I go to Autobarn (Doncaster) mainly as they are the most friendly ones and have the biggest range. Supercheap (Ringwood) is too far and Repco (Nunawading) employees are idiots.

i do autobarn, staff discount rocks :bowrofl:

plus everyone knows what repco stands for ( rip every poor ******* off)


i love it that people go to k-mart to buy oil, as one example k-mart/big w has castrol magnatec for a low every day price of $34.99 autobarn's normal price $31.99 :badgrin:

Supercheap because it's... well... super cheap.

There's a Repco across the road though, so I'll look in there if Supercheap doesn't have what I'm after...

I always go to supercheap first cause its 2 mins from my house. Then go to repco after supercheap doesn't have what I need.

Oils -> K Mart or Big W (coz its cheaper than the dedicated car places like Supercheap, Repco and the others)

Parts - Basic parts or generic super cheap auto is good.

Other parts -> My Trade Account at Repco gives excellent prices! Some items 40% off retail!

Big W have one of the cheapest pricing on Engine oils. Helix Ultra for $47.00
Super cheap have good prices when sale. There are some other shops in WA that give low prices too, depends on what you are looking for.

AutoPro. They rock. Good range, good service. Me and dad always get a discount there cause its the only place we go for our stuff.

Their employees have a lot of knowledge too. Much better then anywhere else. Otherwise Supercheap and AutoBarn. Never even bother with Repco.

Depends on where you live, the staff at autobarn here in Townsville are ********s, while Supercheap auto are very friendly and knowledgable.
