Johanna Poultney

I have taken my Jetta TDI to Rivercity multiple times now and I am continually impressed with their service. Friendly, fast, efficient and honest. I don’t live closeby, but I will go out of my way to take my car to them whenever I need something. 10/10 recommend.

Mike Dowler

First opportunity to bring my vehicle by for a scheduled servicing. Team at Rivercity was great to deal with. Explained everything and had the work completed when they estimated it would be done. Definitely coming back to have further work done.

Alecia Muirhead

The team here is so helpful! We bring our vehicle here for regular maintenance and they are helpful, courteous, and prompt with service. Reasonable pricing and they do a great job of letting us know any additional concerns they notice. Thanks for taking such good care of our vehicle!

Craig Sartison

Great people to deal with. Very knowledgeable, accommodating, and the kind of people you want to do business with. I think the best thing I can say is that after all they have done for me, I don’t think I have paid them enough. I feel motivated to give them more business. Haha. I have never felt that way about an auto shop before.

David Mckay

Absolutely knowledgeable staff, took my Honda in as a diagnostic for a problem that people thought might be one issue, with the expertise at river side they determined a completely different thought with proof and fixed the issue I was having. They managed to do this when it was busy on a Friday and gave me a plan moving forward in regards to maintaining the car and building up going forward. Highly recommend.

Dan

I race with Chris – him and the team at river city motors always take such great care of me and the cars. When I say they know Miatas, I mean they know everything about them, even the weird niche stuff. They do amazing work with every aspect of the cars. I trust their work while I head 150kph towards a wall, which means you can too.
