Collision Repair
Collision Repair
Getting into an accident is stressful enough without having to figure out where your car goes next. At Wagstaff European in Ellerslie, our team puts Auckland vehicles back together after collisions big and small, making the whole process as simple as possible. Whether you're going through insurance, sorting it privately, or just need towing from the scene, we've got you covered from start to finish.
About this service
You Have the Right to Choose Your Own Repairer
Many Auckland drivers don't realise that under New Zealand law, you have the right to choose which repairer fixes your vehicle. Your insurer cannot force you to use their preferred shop. If your insurer is directing you somewhere else, you're perfectly entitled to bring your car to Wagstaff European instead. We work directly with all major NZ insurers—including AMI, State, AA Insurance, Vero, NZI, IAG, and FMG—and we handle the relationship for you from the moment your car arrives.
All Insurance Repairs
Our team manages the full insurance repair process, including assessment, documentation, parts, and communication with your provider. We're an insurance-recommended repairer and work to the quality standards expected across the industry. Once you drop the car off, we take care of the rest.
Fleet & Rental Vehicle Repairs
Fleet and rental vehicles need to be back on the road fast because downtime costs real money. We understand the pressure Auckland fleet managers are under, and we prioritise efficient turnarounds without cutting corners. From minor scrapes to significant bodywork on commercial vans, our workshop handles it all.
Non-Insurance Repairs
Prefer to settle privately or keep it off your insurance record? That's completely fine. We'll give you a clear, honest quote, explain exactly what's needed, and carry out the repair to the same high standard as any insurance job, with no pressure or hidden costs.
ADAS Sensor Recalibration
Modern vehicles carry cameras and radar sensors mounted in bumpers, windscreens, and body panels. After a collision repair, these sensors must be recalibrated to work correctly. Our team ensures your driver assistance systems are properly realigned so your lane-keeping and automatic braking functions operate safely.
Towing to Our Ellerslie Workshop
If your car isn't driveable after an accident, we can arrange towing directly to our Marua Road workshop. It's one less call for you to make when you're already dealing with enough.
