18.01.2022 YES, WE ARE OPEN: Please be advised that the advice and legislation quoted below allows for you to visit our non-restricted retail operation: Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008 (Vic), Section 20, Clause 6 (1) (Viii) ‘Leaving premises to obtain necessary goods and services’ where it states that a person can leave a premises to obtain goods and services provided by:... (viii) a retail facility that is not prohibited from operating by the Restricted Activity Directions. Further, our industry body, the Victorian Automobile Chamber of Commerce (VACC) has also forwarded urgent correspondence stating industry concern regarding the confused messaging from Victoria Police to the Office of the Minister for Police, The Hon Lisa Neville MP. VACC has been provided with advice back from the Office of the Minister for Police that states: ‘VACC is correct in that the automotive trade is not being prohibited from work or opening, so staff can work, and customers engage as appropriate and consistent with the CHO requirements around density quotients and physical distancing. Accordingly, the Office of the Minister for Police has provided VACC's correspondence to the Chief Commissioner’s office to ensure it informs the ongoing messaging to police members during this time. In addition, police officers are not meant to be stopping people from travelling for work or restricting trade of businesses that can and should remain open as long as they are maintaining density quotients and physical distancing’. If you have been ordered to not visit our premises by a law enforcement or other government appointed representative we ask that you take the details of that office, person etc for VACC to pursue. Automotive retail is not mandated as a restricted or prohibited business by the Victorian Chief Health Officer.

12.01.2022 BLACKVUE MATTERS: We had Anthony's town car in this week for installation of the BlackVue DR900 2 channel dash cam set, along with B-124X battery. The front, master, camera houses the microSD card and can capture in as high as 4K UHD resolution. The rear, slave, camera produces video, at resolutions as high as 1080P, which is recorded by the master the slave is tethered to.... While you drive, the B-124X battery recharges, and powers the cameras. When you park, the B-124X keeps the cameras rolling for up to 24 hours! It also features a very handy auxiliary USB port for phone charging etc., great if you are waiting in your car with the engine not running. With the SanDisk 256GB high endurance microSDXC card installed, and with the video quality settings at their highest the DR900 will record footage from both the front and rear channels for over 14 hours before looping. We can supply and install the same package for you for $1879 with Zip Pay available. Please feel free to contact us with any enquiries. Note that we offer a 10% labour, 5% parts discount to all professional drivers (taxi, VHA/C, ride share, couriers etc.) on all of our work, including service and repair. We can also supply and fit the BlackVue DR900's direct competitor: the Thinkware U1000 2 channel dash cam set; with iVolt Mini battery, and SanDisk 128GB high endurance microSDXC card for $1829.

02.01.2022 Dear members of the general public, We are currently working under Restricted Activity Directions from Victoria's Public Health Commander - we are still here for you, if you NEED us - and you can stay at home while we help you: For us to help you out, during these restrictions, you MUST:...

We will carry out a comprehensive vehicle inspection, for FREE, to assess the safety, compliance, roadworthiness, serviceability, and future serviceability of all the essential and critical systems in your vehicle to help mitigate the risk of you needing to access to our services again while any Restricted Activity Directions are still in force. FREE TOWING! - FREE COMPREHENSIVE VEHICLE INSPECTION! All you have to pay for is the diagnostics and you will be provided with an obligation free estimate for the repairs required.
