Stephen and his company have been really helpful for me, I had bought my first car and did not much(still don’t) but I know Stephen is reliable and will always have an honest answer and a fair price. Not looking to change my mechanic any time soon. Thanks legend!
Honest and reliable mechanic! Stephen was incredibly helpful with a recent service, and advised honestly on what other things I needed repaired, compared to other mechanics I had recently been to. Also provided some excellent referrals. Thanks!
Best mechanic in SEQ, I travel far from the Northside of the brown snake for these legends, never had a bad experience and always a fair price
So friendly and kind, I was over charged at a mechanic close by and called for a second opinion. Was super helpful and got me in to fix the issue on the same day, couldn’t recommend enough.
Fantastic work, great customer service also and affordable. Thanks Steve.
Booked my car in for an essential service after the business was recommended on some euro car forums and they did not disappoint. I had a great service experience. Stephen was easy to deal with, he provided a honest review of the car. The service was done for the agreed price and I got my car back faster than I thought I would. Will definitely use them again!
I’ve used these guys a few times now & I’ve walked out a happy customer every time. The service was great, Stephen is very friendly & very professional. I highly recommend motion motive
Great service
Being from Victoria & purchasing a car from Queensland was difficult without flying to QLD to look at the car. So I contacted Stephen from Motion Motive & asked if he could help me out. I had the car BMW taken to the workshop. Where Stephen went above and beyond to make sure that everything was okay. He serviced the car, fixed the air conditioner & even cleaned it, I couldn’t have asked for better service. When I picked up the car from the workshop I was amazed at how clean & organised everything was, so professional. I wish Motion Motive was in Victoria
Went to Stephen with an issue in my car. He ordered the part needed and fixed up my car within a couple of hours. Excellent service will definitely come back.
I had a very positive experience here. Knowledgeable and friendly place, and I will more than happily return in the future. Cheers for your help, Stephen!
Was able to book in same day and for an oil and trans fluid change prior to a weekend away. These guys were fast, knowledgeable and knew my vehicle inside out. showed a good understandable of the common fault and things I need to watch for in the future. Friendly and personable and gave me a sense of trust in the work carried out. It's hard to find someone you can trust these days after I got taken for a ride my Toyota and the first shop I went to. Happy to recommend from my own experience. very happy.
Excellent experience from start to finish, professional staff with great attention to detail. Will be back for next service.
After being referred to Steven at Motionmotive for the stage 3 ARI/Coco upgrade on my Abarth 124. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of workmanship and attention to detail he provides. All while be a top notch bloke as well! Customer service is on point, his workshop is immaculate and his prices are very fair for the workmanship provided. Since my upgrade and service, i have been back this week for a timing belt change, spark plug change, transmission flush, break flush, 110,000km service and the car has never run better! Highly recommend Steven and his work ( as i already do on our car clubs forums ) Greg
Knowledgeable, honest and friendly highly recommend!
Very professional and thoughtful Business. Stephen went above and beyond what any normal machanic would do to make sure my car was in perfect working order. I highly recommend him and his business for any auomtoive and mechanical needs.
Clear and concise communication from the team when trying to diagnose a problem with my car. Refreshing experience from a mechanic, would recommend to anyone really.
Would love to say a big thank you for all of your help over the last 2 years never had any problems & well always come back & will tell the truth & will go beyond anyone’s expectations & just a really decent bloke. I have had Performance parts Installed and general servicing & etc.
A fantastic job done by Motionmotive diagnosing and fixing my vehicle. Prompt, polite and very knowledgeable. I wouldn't take my vehicle anywhere else.
Highly recommend! Stephen was extremely helpful, professional, and went above & beyond to talk me through how BMW misdiagnosed the issue with my 5 Series & ultimately rectified the issue (& others!) for less than a third of the price quoted by BMW. My car’s never driven better! The workshop is immaculate & you can tell Stephen and his small team are passionate car enthusiasts and experts. I can’t ever see myself ever taking my car elsewhere, and I certainly won’t ever waste my time and money with a sloppy dealer workshop!
I was absolutely stoked with the service provided by Stephen and the team at motion motive. They were friendly, professional, responsive and genuine. I received absurd quotes from other mechanics to fix an A/C compressor issue and luckily I went to these guys as I ended up spending a quarter of the price and my car is as good as new. So happy I found them and I will definitely be going back!
Best mechanic I’ve come across by far! I was struggling to find a trustworthy, knowledgeable and passionate mechanic for my Alfa Romeo until a mate recommended Stephen at MotionMotive. Now I won’t go anywhere else besides him. If you’ve got a special vehicle that you take pride in and want the best care for, I super highly recommend him and his team.
Friendly, professional and personalised service from the team at Motionmotive, something that has been sorely missing from the local area for a while. My vehicle feels great. Many thanks.
I had just moved back to Brisbane and was looking for a new mechanic to service my car. Motionmotive was recommended by a number of people. Stephen was very friendly and professional to deal with. A great communicator. He is incredibly respectful of his clients. He did a great service on my car and the cost was very reasonable. You can tell he is well organised and you can see he has an exceptionally clean workshop. I have since recommended him to a number of my friends. They've also been really happy with the warm friendly and professional service they received.
Amazing service. Very professional!! I'll be back for sure!! Thanks guys
Stephen was great. Kept me informed on what was needed. New workshop and great to support a new local business. Highly recommend
Stephen and the team are wonderful, always happy to help with odd jobs on my old ute and service & modify my Golf GTI MK7.5... Shop is clean and they take pride in their work and try to keep costs reasonable! Can't recommend Motion Motive enough!
Stephen is a fantastic mechanic. Very personable and trustworthy which is what I appreciate in a mechanic. Always upfront about what has been done or needs to be done on a car and prices reflect that.
Excellent service and excellent attention, Additional the location is very close to the city very easy to get to. I recommend it 100%.
I have been servicing my car for last 3 years with the business. Very reliable and Honest team. Also on time and helpful 👌. Very reasonable price compared to any other Audi service centres. Highly recommended. Thanks Stephen n Team🙏
After having taken my Audi Q7 to two other reasonably large Euro mechanics a number of times and receiving very second rate service I went to Stephen @ Motionmotive. Just on first impressions I was impressed by the tidy, organised workshop, then upon talking with Stephen I had a strong sense that he was an honest, knowledgeable, and very fair guy who actually took an interest in the issues I'd been having with my car. Having taken my car to Stephen on a couple of occasions now I am pleased to say those first impressions and expectations have been well exceeded. You will not find a more diligent, thorough, honest, thoughtful and clever mechanic in Brisbane, Stephen @ Motionmotive is the man!
Highly recommend Motionmotive. After getting stuffed around by other mechanics while trying to find someone to work on my Alfa Romeo Giulietta, I was delighted to find Stephen. He sorted out a few issues along with a "proper" service where he found a couple of items that were never performed on log book servicing!
My Car needed a radiator hose replacement, Stephen was able to replace and repair the issue with in the same day of the hose being ordered. The customer service delivered was exceptional. 100% would recommend to customers.
A great service and price. Stephen went above and beyond with a few extras. Highly recommended.
My car has an unusual semi-automatic transmission which suddenly became very unpleasant to drive. One of manufacturer's workshops recommended Stephen at Motionmotive. So, I called late-morning on a Friday and within two hours the transmission problem was fixed. Great service, knowledgeable. Definitely booking here for the car's next scheduled service.
Fantastic. Great communicator. Very transparent about what he did, showed me each spare part, itemised costs, etc. The most trustworthy mechanic I’ve ever dealt with!
Amazing experience! Would recommend to anyone and everyone I know - Stephen was the very best help I could have when buying a new car and doing a once over! Will be seeing Stephen again in the near future for a service. Thanks Stephen!
I took my Lexus for new front brakes with Stephen. A friend had recommended him. He is very knowledgeable about all things automotive, and is very experienced with euro’s and prestige cars. It is great being able to talk to the mechanic who actually does the work. The price was great and the workmanship top notch. Would highly recommend.
Stephen did a great job on my Alfa Romeo. Working with CocoEurotech in Melbourne for my tune. MotionMotive genuinely care about providing a good service and looking after your car. Highly recommend!
Recently got my car serviced at Motionmotive Auto. Top quality work and communication from Stephen. Great to find a helpful and honest mechanic. Very experienced and knowledgeable across all cars- especially euros. Will definitely be going back.
Part replacement- efficient and friendly service with a good outcome. Job was done in a timely way and workplace was clean. Communication with me pre and post work was excellent. Steve knows his trade. Recommend
Motionmotive installed new suspension in my audi a4. The team was extremely knowledgeable, honest, friendly and completed the job very quickly with no issues at all. Stephen gave me a great price for the job and was very easy to deal with. Ill be taking my other vehicles back to him when the time comes. I highly recommend Motionmotive.
Honest, professional and timely. I am often skeptical of mechanics as someone who knows nothing about cars, but I felt at ease with the staff here. My car was fixed within a couple of hours and at a reasonable price. I will be back :)
Stephen was a massive help. I had issues with my breaks being a euro car, assumed it would take a few days. stephen was able to get my car fixed in only a matter of hours! highly recommend , i will be back !!

Thanks Stephen,
A great mechanic to go to !! Stephen has helped out so much with my car. It’s easily accessible which is a plus as I’ve had a few issues lately with my car and he has always been able to fit me in on time as well as having reasonable prices for my Mini Cooper and any parts I’ve needed.
Stephen is a rare breed amongst mechanics these days. Goes above and beyond to provide great service for honest prices. Great communication and is thoroughly transparent about work to be undertaken and costs involved. Will always advise if any extra work needs doing and only proceed to do so if approved by owner. Highly recommended
I was referred to Stephen for my car service after hearing how good he was. I had my Mazda serviced by Stephen only a few days ago. He was really pleasant to deal with, efficient and very genuine. My car was serviced in a very speedy fashion and with a very good price. I’m very happy with motionmotive automotive and will be back!
Serviced both cars with Motionmotive . Very professional approach with good recommendations, clearly explained. Diagnosed issues quickly. Great to find a mechanic that offers genuine customer service
This guy is extremely talented, I had problem with my BMW X3 and went to him, he fixed it like a magic, before going to him, I went to some others but wasted time and money . And one thing I must say about Steve is that he id very honest, won’t charge anything without fixing car, thank you so much
