Our Top Most Reliable German Cars

Our Top Most Reliable German Cars

As an Independent Service Centre specialising in German autos – we see a wide variety of luxury brands and models. German luxury brands – BMW, Audi, VW, Mercedes-Benz and Skoda – are known for their versatility and reliability. Often with a high price tag, quality German engineering has ensured these brands are synonymous with luxury. Choosing our top choices is not an easy task.

Audi

  • A4

One of the least expensive in the Audi range is the compact A4 sedan which scores high in the reliability rating and doesn’t compromise on the luxurious feel. The Audi A4 Allroad has a more rugged design but is just as worthy in terms of reliability.

  • Q3

Given the rising popularity of SUVs – this is one car that scores highly in reliability. In 2017 it was voted one of the 10 most reliable vehicles by consumers.

BMW

  • 2 Series

This is sold as a coupe or convertible and it is a fun drive and comes in at a great price point for its safety features and reliability.

  • 3 series

BMWs premium compact comes with a top safety rating and is still one of the most popular luxury ranges from BMW.

  • 5 series

More powerful and more technologically advanced – this is the range to invest in if you’re willing to spend a bit more for luxury.

Mercedes- Benz

  • GLC – Class

This compact design makes this a great city car – it’s sophisticated and very reliable.

German SUV’s for the Australian Market

German SUV’s for the Australian Market

In previous blog posts, we reported on the falling car sales in 2019. Australians aren’t rushing to buy new cars; however, SUV’s are still proving to be one of the most popular choices for people looking to invest in new or second-hand cars. Here are our top-rated small SUVs.

Audi Q2

Our Audi service specialists highly recommend this auto for its active safety features. It may be the smallest SUV in the Audi range, but It is a comfortable ride and a solidly built vehicle. Its sporty, compact looks make it a great city run-around.

BMW X1

The BMW X1 is a popular choice and our BMW service team find its interior practical and functional. Although its finishes aren’t as prestigious as the X3, the X1 still proves a reliable choice for a small SUV.

Mercedes-Benz GLA

This is a fabulous option – it’s smart and trendy with great safety features and smartphone connectivity. Although it is pricier than its rivals, our Mercedes-Benz service team enjoys the snazzy design and the up-to-date technological features of this German Auto.

Camping, caravanning, glamping and now ‘vanlife’. The latest trend is to travel with your van and share the photos on Instagram. Volkswagen is perfectly positioned to join the ‘vanlife’ movement. Our Volkswagen Service team are enjoying the latest phenomenon combining Volkswagen and travel.

The new Volkswagen marketing strategy is seeing Australians post pics on social media (@vwvanlife). The Caddy Beach (the Volkswagen Camper) is perfectly on trend with the movement towards simple living and minimalism.

The Volkswagen Caddy Van is equipped with all the latest safety features. Our Volkswagen Service team is happy to see the inclusion of Driver Fatigue Detection technology.
