Reliable service, honest care and community trust.
Armidale’s Bandit Automotive has built a loyal following for its reliable service, fair pricing and good old-fashioned customer care. Led by local mechanic Chris Swilks, the workshop recently claimed the title of Best Mechanic in the 2025 Best in the New England awards – a testament to its trusted reputation and hands-on approach.
Since taking over the business and setting up on Crescent Street, Chris and his team have focused on keeping things simple: quality work, clear communication and genuine service. Customers praise Bandit Automotive for its honesty, professionalism and willingness to help, with many noting the welcoming atmosphere and “old-school” values that set it apart.
Whether it’s a quick repair or a major job, Bandit Automotive delivers the kind of dependable, down-to-earth service that keeps Armidale drivers coming back – and now, with a new title to their name, the Bandit has proven it’s the mechanic to beat.
