25.01.2022 So what do we do at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown? Servicing, repairs, maintenance, RWCs, tyres, brakes, electrical just to name a few. Your work horse, your daily, your new car, your old car, your motor bike, your pride and Joy, even your classic! Would have been a shorter list to say what we don't do. Christmas is now under a month so let's make sure you and your family are safe on the festive roads. Book in for an appointment with us soon.

25.01.2022 Some days you don't really want to go to work. Some days you do. Other day you can't wait, today is one of those days.

24.01.2022 Just letting people know its business as usual at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown. We will be here through out this troubled time unless the government rules otherwise. Please respect all social distancing when dropping in. We are still providing all our usual services, repairs, maintenance and Roadworthy inspections. Stay safe and stay home if you dont need to go out. The team at Ultimate.

24.01.2022 Its was a long day, a mix up at Bridgestone resulting in the wrong tyres coming didn't help. Thanks so much for Simone for dashing out to Derimut and back to sort it all out. But Tim's little BMW cabriolet is serviced, new front brakes, new front tyres and washed, all ready for some safe summer top down cruises! Enjoy Tim.

22.01.2022 We are still here to keep the wheels of industry turning. A couple of commercial vehicles in today. The orange VW of Cameron is in for it's due service as he keeps it up to scratch. The Mercedes dropping in with " I can hear a noise in the brakes, could you please inspect for me". The condition of the tyres first shocked me and the driver. Then came the brakes. When asked who did the brakes he said "they are not there any more they closed up". After showing him the brakes we both know why, they weren't fitted correctly both sides and now rubbing on the wheel, aaaaarrrr the noise. We are open during lockdown so please keep yourself a safe and book in for a safety check at least if your unsure.

22.01.2022 It's good news at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown, we have our "new" 4th hoist installed and operational. 2 clear span 4 tonne hoists and two 3 tonne hoists. This means we can get you in quicker for appointments and get the car back to you faster as well. It also helps us accommodate break downs and RWC inspections into our normal bookings too. We had a full book today but Robbie broke down in AVAYAK yesterday needing a new alternator and overdue service. We were able to get it in and it will be finished tonight! The reception heater is on a nice and warm 24 degrees and I am more than happy to make you a hot latte if you need to wait.

22.01.2022 We would like to wish everybody a safe and happy Easter from Ultimate Automotive. Wow this is something we have never experienced before. Not having Easter celebrations with family is going to be hard for us all. Stay safe, communicate with your family and friends on line. This will pass soon. But at Ultimate Automotive we still are working, we are an essential service. We were even open today! Some isolated family time for us now and yes we are open again Tuesday. Call us for an appointment if you need us. Happy Easter.

21.01.2022 For those following and supporting my run4blue. I have now run4blue for Lynette Taylor 27417, Kevin King 40942 and Glen Humphris 45688. 114.047 klms. It's not over yet.

21.01.2022 Merry Christmas everybody, from Ultimate Automotive. Because as we all know, mechanics can ANYTHING! Stay safe and enjoy your break.

21.01.2022 We have some freedom and how good does that feel. "You dont know what you've got till it's gone" as the song goes. But getting out the boat, jet ski, horse float, motorbike trailer and so on to have some long awaited fun to find out in just 10 minutes the trailer bearings are shot is not fun. That's exactly what happened to Zac, but we are here at Ultimate to save his day. If you are planning to get your toys out, lock downs are off and the weather is great, please book the trailer in with us for a service before you go. The best way to have the best get away.

20.01.2022 My sleigh has been put away for the year now.( a green ute with red seats is about as close as I get to a sleigh) We would like to take this chance to thank everybody for their support in yet another year. From suppliers who helped us day to day then stepped up to difficult jobs to source that "cant get part" to the people behind the scenes like Yvonne in the office and of course all of our very loyal clients some of who we have had from day 1, 20 years ago. Please enjoy your festive season with your friends and family. Be happy, stay safe and we look forward to seeing you in the new year.

20.01.2022 Well that's a wrap from us at Ultimate Automotive for 2020 and what a year it has been. We thank all of our valued clients and also our fantastic suppliers who make sure we get the quality products we need to keep us on top. I hope everybody has a safe and relaxing break with their families and friends. We can only hope 2021 brings us all back to a normal life. Merry Christmas, happy new year and please be careful on the roads. Enjoy this spannerful Christmas tune.

19.01.2022 People are preparing for a well earned break and making sure their vehicles are serviced, RWC and safe. If it's the family 4X4 for a camping trip or catching up with the interstate relo's. Maybe just planning some "me time" on the bike. Get in contact with us at Ultimate so we can make sure it's a safe trip and the vehicle doesn't let you down

18.01.2022 Well here we all are in both strange and difficult times. Ultimate Automotive are still open and will continue to be through lockdown as an essential service provider. We are practising all the Covid-19 safety procedures. We have sanitiser for your hands and also to clean the car contact points before and after we work on it. These procedures are to keep all of us from the spread. We ask that you call to make appointments and are in and out as quick as possible, contact free.... No we can not have any waiting sorry. We can help with car collection and drop off within a radius but restrictions prevent us offering a ride home as we would normal do. Any questions or if you require and appointment please call the workshop on 9464 1140. Lets all stay safe, work together and get back to our families, friends and lives as soon as possible, Thank you See more

18.01.2022 We have had an alarming 3 cars come in this week with tyres that were beyond dangerous! The drivers of these 3 cars had no idea the safety issue they created for themselves and other families on the road as they didnt know their tyres were so bad. The thing they did all have in common is they were all overdue for a service and safety inspection. Thankfully they didnt have an accident and the cars all have quality new tyres fitted by us at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown. If you are overdue for a service but are unable to get it done, please book in with us for a safety inspection to make sure the car is not dangerous, in most cases this is free. Dont forget our number 9464 1140.

17.01.2022 Just a little reminder that at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown we are licensed RWC testers for Motorcycles as well as cars/44/light commercial and LPG vehicles.

17.01.2022 Someone must have wound the clock back to the 60s at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown today!

17.01.2022 School holidays are nearly done, but we have still been full steam ahead the whole time. Don't let your cars fall into disrepair, unsafe or unreliable with expensive repair costs. Come and speak to us about sorting things out early. Service, repairs, brakes, tyres or even " what's that clunk I can hear?????" 9464 1140

17.01.2022 Had a few classic cars in today. A HK premier owned for near 40 years. A HG custom panelvan getting ready for the Victorian panelvan titles this weekend, and a Genuine Ford Falcon XW GTHO Pase 1.5, yes the real McCoy a factory HO.

17.01.2022 As we still continue to support the Doreen CFA with our membership donations in Ultimate Automotive Classics club, and will continue to for the whole year of 2020. I just want to update people on my Run4Blue efforts. Last night on a run with my 3 sons I hit the 400klm mark I set myself to reach. I have ran the month of May in run4blue to honour the 4 Police officers who never made it home from work in April and also to remember my brother in-law Peter Howard who was the forme...r Captain of Mernda CFA who never made it home from work in December. I have also been given the honor of running in the second leg of the run4blue 159.485 memorial relay on Sunday. I will carry the batten of Ironman Constable Josh Prestney. I really appreciate all the support I have been shown, with messages, likes and donations to the page. Police Legacy have said that all moneys raised in the 159.485 group that I am in will be going directly to the families. So thank you all, for your support with run4blue and your ongoing support to the CFA through memberships and donations above your membership as well. https://give.everydayhero.com/au/scott-eff/wizard/share See more

16.01.2022 Hard to see at night? Head light lenses all yellow and frosty could be the issue. Come and see us at Ultimate and we will have them clear again in no time. Call for an appointment on 9464 1140. Just one of the many things we do at Ultimate. Not just a mechanic and RWC tester.

15.01.2022 So the kids are on a school break? Not us at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown, we are on deck! It's full steam ahead here and great time to get your car checked over or serviced while your not doing the school run. Pick up and drop off from the local areas is not a problem at all, we can even collect the car from you if you please. Can always enjoy a latte on us while you wait in reception. Phone the workshop on 9464 1140 and we can make a time.

15.01.2022 Felt like German day at one stage today in the workshop. We work on all types of vehicles at Ultimate Automotive and European cars are no exception. "Das Auto"

15.01.2022 All membership fees for 2020 are being donated to the CFA from our sister Classics club. Our first donation was given tonight. Cant wait to drop off more.

14.01.2022 Hello all, yes another lock down has been given. Please all stay home and away from places you just do not need to be.

14.01.2022 This morning I completed the 159.485klms to honour and thank Lynette, Kevin, Glen and Josh. My run4blue is not over yet. My aim is to now run another 160klms in the name of my brother in law Peter, who never came home for work in December. 160klms for run4blue for everybody who never came home from work like we all should. Thank you once again to who have supported the every day hero page I created.

14.01.2022 Last year in May I did run4blue. After the 4 officers were killed on the freeway it touched a cord with me having just lost my brother in law Peter Howard in a work place road accident December 19, 2019. The accident was not his fault. Peter was also a former Captain of Mernda CFA. I ran 452klms and raised over $2000. Separately last year I also raised and donated over $2000 to Doreen CFA through the Ultimate Automotive Classics club. This year I am doing Run4blue again, I am... aiming to break my 452klms (if the body agrees ). This year I am on the Fighting PTSD Vicpol team to raise money protecting our protectors. In 3 days I have so far ran 66 klms.)up date i ran another 13klms this morning!) I have left the link here, if you choose to support no matter how small remember this. You are not supporting me, you are supporting the people who no matter what, will always support you. Thank you for reading my post. See more

13.01.2022 For the supporters, followers and especially the sponsors of my run4blue challenge. I have now covered 27.417klms for Lynette Taylor and 40.942 klms for Kevin King, total 68.359klms in the first 5 days of May. Thank you all so much, I am far from done yet.

13.01.2022 I feel is a very good message to share at the holiday season when people are looking to use the roads more and enjoy a break. Show this to your friends and family, especially your kids and younger drivers. Please all stay safe out there. Fun lasts a short time, dead lasts forever! Enjoy your Easter break

10.01.2022 We get asked " will your hiost pick up my work truck? Its heavy" and the answer is yes. We have 2, 4 tonne clear span hoists so most work vehicles and 4WDs are not an issue. The other two hosts are 3 tonne and can also lift most 4WDs and SUVs. Stay safe at work and have your work vehicle serviced and safety checked on time at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown.

09.01.2022 It's so hot in here, but very exciting as well.

09.01.2022 As a licensed VicRoads RWC tester Ultimate Automotive has remained open throughout lock down for essential work. We are now permitted to take service and general maintenance or repairs appointments again. If you require any work please call the workshop Monday on 9464 1140 for a booking. Looking forward to seeing some old faces again soon, I hope you are all well.

09.01.2022 Heading into the festive season and car is under pressure. Kids sports, wind ups, family, friends and work wow wee it's like a taxi that doesnt stop. With all those klms ahead and many more at night then usual ahead I ask you this, do your head lights appear yellow and shine like candles in the wind? We can fix this up in no time and isn't not expensive at all. We can resurface and polish 90% of lights back there former glory for $75. Maybe time to call us, or call past. Stay safe over the crazy period and dont take unnecessary risks like driving with poor lighting.

07.01.2022 Simone was having trouble with those enormous tyres spraying mud and stones up, damaging her horse float. So in we step to supply and fit a set of genuine BMW mudflaps at a fraction of what the dealers quoted. They look quite good I must say, lets hope they solve the problem. Thanks again Simone. Bemma me up??? Maybe I won't give up my day job just yet!

07.01.2022 Oh my it would appear somebody has turned the clocks back at the workshop. What shall I do? Lucky I still have the scan tool that plugs into these beasts!

07.01.2022 When we say at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown we can fix anything we mean it. We had this Bon Trike (half VW Beetle, half motorcycle) in this week for a RWC and to sort out some electrical issues. Remember we are licensed RWC testers for light vehicles, motorcycles and LPG powered vehicles.

06.01.2022 Need a set of white walls for your classic? Dont want to pay silly money some places are charging? Well snap! We can help you out as we deal directly with the importers and do the the fitting and balancing in house with our own equipment. Why waste money on a middle man when you dont need to. Beautiful set of 14 inch tyres here with a 25mm white band. Call on 9464 1140 for a quote.

05.01.2022 What a busy day Friday, some great cars and I forgot to share. Other example of how at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown nothing is a problem, we do it all. From RWC inspections and repairs to pass RWC. New clutch, service and Pirelli run flat tyres on the diesel Mini. Annual safety check on Robin's beautiful Stang. Club Permit RWC on the Capri. Service and brakes on a few and then peicing together Clive's HZ 253 ute full restoration. This HZ ute looks liked it rolled off the production line yesterday.

05.01.2022 This is our sister classics club. We want to support the people who selflessly protect people. Get on board and pressure your club to do the same. Our CFA members are heros and they need our help

03.01.2022 Hey there everyone. I have put my feet in my mouth literally and signed up to do run4blue this May as support for the 4 officers that died at work last week. With what happened in our family 19th of December just gone and Peter my brother in law not making it home from work due to the actions of another driver, The Victorian Police have been a total rock for us in many ways. So time to give back the best way I know, running! If people can give some support to the families of ...the officers taken that would be fantastic. Only do what you can afford please and if that is not at all in these times I understand. If any of my sporting friends want to drop a few klms with me, sure thing! The aim is for 159.495 klms in total (I am sure I will do more, a bit crazy like that) 27.417 klms for LSC Lynette Taylor, 40.942 kms for SC Kevin King, 45.688 klms for C Glen Humphris and 45.438 klms for C Josh Prestney. These klms reflect their badge numbers. Thank you everyone https://give.everydayhero.com/au/scott-eff/wizard/share

03.01.2022 A little update. For those people following and supporting me in #run4blue, after 2 days I have completed the 27.417klms to honour LSC Lynette Taylor. Thank you all very much, I will not give up!

02.01.2022 Well that's a wrap! The Aussie green sleigh is locked away and the blue Swedish Bollard jammed in place (and you all thought I wouldn't find a use for the Saab) We at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown would like to take the time to wish everyone a safe and happy Christmas with your family and friends. We thank you so much for another great year of your support and are happy we could help keep you all on the roads safely. We also thank you all for your kind words, support and well wishes during our family tragedy last Thursday, that took our brother in law Peter Howard's life in Miller st Epping doing his job.

02.01.2022 Your car or SUV needs a timing belt? Not a problem at all. We make sure we do the complete job correctly at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown. This 4WD needed a faulty seal replaced at the same time as well as a water pump. All completed running like a dream.

01.01.2022 The sun is shining, it's a cracking day. We are all systems go at Ultimate Automotive Thomastown keeping our clients cars, serviced, safe and realiable for a hot summer coming.

01.01.2022 I know it's a crazy time of the year but please dont forget what gets you to all of those Christmas celebrations and keeps your family safe. Wally is a regular client and has been for years, let the car go 8,000klms over service. I squeezed him in today with bald tyres and no brakes! Wally needs to remember what goes in the back seat and keep the family safe. We are glad we could get you in mate and you will have new tyres, brakes and a service today. Crazy time of year, but please dont do crazy things, we are here to help.
