Putting Off Your WOF? It Could Void Your Insurance

You’re wondering if it’ll even pass…
What if it fails again like last time?
What’s it going to cost?
Will you get hit with a big repair bill you didn’t plan for?


Then there’s the hassle—finding time to book, waiting days or weeks for an appointment, and dealing with mechanics who don’t explain anything or try to upsell you stuff you don’t need.


Meanwhile, your car’s just sitting there—can’t drive it legally, don’t want to risk a fine, but also don’t want to waste a whole day sorting it out.


And in the back of your mind, there’s that constant stress -
“What if I get pulled over?”
“What if something’s actually wrong and I didn’t know?”
“What if I’m putting myself or others at risk?”

We get it. A lapsed WOF can feel like a ticking time bomb.

But it doesn’t have to be.


We make WOFs fast, fair, and easy—with same-day bookings, upfront communication, and zero judgment. So you can get back on the road with peace of mind.

" Did you know"

Waiting to Book a WOF Could Cost You More

Most folks think a WOF is just another box to tick — until it’s too late. But the truth is, staying on top of it can save you from fines, breakdowns, and even insurance dramas. Check out these eye-openers before you put it off again...

  • WOF Fails? Most Are Totally Avoidable

    About 40% of cars in NZ fail their WOF for dead simple reasons – worn tyres, blown bulbs, dodgy wipers. Stuff you could’ve sorted in five minutes. We’ll give you a heads-up so you don’t get caught out.

  • Don’t Risk It – Even a Week Late Can Cost You

    Pushing your >wof check< back by a few days might seem sweet... until you end up in a prang. If your WOF’s expired, your insurance might not cover you. Better safe than sorry, eh?

  • Little Fixes Save Big Headaches

    It’s always the small stuff – tyre tread a hair too low, a number plate bulb out. Let us give your car a once-over first, so you’re not failing for something you could’ve fixed in 10 bucks and 10 minutes.

What does that mean?


 Don’t risk your safety or wallet. Book early, and get it sorted with a team that knows their stuff.
