Who We Are

A Legacy of Local Automotive Care

At Macquarie Brake & Automotive Services, we’ve proudly served the Port Macquarie community and the wider Mid North Coast since 1976. Originally established by Tony and Narelle Doherty, the business is now owned by local mechanic Ben Richards, who brings over 12 years of hands-on experience to every job.

Our mission is simple—deliver honest, personalised service backed by real mechanical expertise. We specialise in brake and clutch repairs, but offer a full range of services including mechanical repairs, servicing, suspension, tyres and auto parts.

What sets us apart is our people-first approach—here, you speak directly with the mechanic working on your vehicle. We value integrity, reliability and real results, offering comprehensive warranties on parts and labour for your peace of mind. Whether you’re a local, a business owner or just passing through, we’re here to keep your car running safely and smoothly.
