Hi Jolly,
We lived in Darwin for 4 years and always went to Phill Kerr with our Troopie and later on our 100 series. He was fantastic.
Always honest, always well priced and very thourough.
Bridge Auto is a bit like bondage........if you are into pain you'll love it!!
Cheers Ben

Agree with Bender about Bridge. We used Phil kerr when we lived closer to town. He was great. We now use JJE Automotive at palmerston industrial estate. They have been great, and don't charge like wounded bulls.

When we spent 5 months in Darwin last year I asked resident son who he used for service. The answer was Palmerston Auto Clinic Palmerston. Took the Prado there and was very pleased with the result.
Previous year had a service in Townsville at Mike Carney Toyota and it cost an arm and a leg.

Do my own, but:
RUN away from anything with Kerry's on it (Google it)
All dealerships will rip you off
Another vote for Phill Kerr

Lads,

After a strong campaign Phil Kerr seems to have the votes, do you have any contact details for him at all...business name, location etc.

Thanks
