Avenal Service Centre
About
Located at the corner of Dee and Avenal Streets in Invercargill, Avenal Service Centre operates from an on-site workshop at the Waitomo Fuel Stop. Owner Karl Wharepouri, an A-grade mechanic with over 35 years of experience, has built the business on principles of honesty and affordability. The workshop specialises in European marques including Alfa Romeo, BMW, Citroën, Fiat, Land Rover, and Maserati, alongside Japanese brands like Mazda and Suzuki. Classic car servicing is also available. Beyond brand-specific work, the team handles WOF inspections and repairs, routine servicing with 12-point checks, suspension modifications, cam belt work, clutch replacements, and transmission repairs. Diagnostic and electrical services address complex faults, while tyre work encompasses puncture repairs, balancing, rotations, and wheel alignments. Customers benefit from flexible payment arrangements through WINZ quotes, MTF Finance, and Zip. Trailer servicing and WOF inspections are offered, as are insurance mechanical repairs. The centre provides a six-month safety check option between annual WOF inspections, plus quick replacement of consumables like batteries and wiper blades.
