How it works
Three steps. No appointment needed.
Send what you have now. We will help you understand it before you commit.
We review it line by line
We check the repair list, the likely fault, and what is genuinely needed now versus what can wait.
You get an honest re-quote
We send back a clear written quote and beat the price where we can. If the original was fair, we will say so.
Not sure about the quote you got?
Worried your repair quote is too expensive?
A quote is not just a number. It is a list of work someone says your car needs. A second opinion checks that list before you pay.
- Whether every item is actually necessary right now
- What is urgent for safety and what can safely wait
- If the right repair was diagnosed in the first place
- Where we can do the same job for less
Know your rights
A written quote should protect you
South African consumer-rights rules protect customers around agreed written quotes. A workshop should not simply change the bill without your go-ahead. Use this as general information, not legal advice, and ask for any changes in writing before work continues.

Common questions
Before you send the quote
How do I know if my car repair quote is fair?
The best way is a second opinion. Send us the quote and we will check whether everything on it is actually needed, whether the right fault was diagnosed, and what is urgent versus what can wait.
Can I get a second opinion on a mechanic's quote?
Yes. A second opinion is normal when the number feels high or the repair list is confusing. Send us what you have and we will give you an honest, independent view.
Is it legal for a workshop to charge more than the quote?
In South Africa, consumer-rights rules protect customers around agreed written quotes. Treat this as general information, not legal advice; if a bill changes, ask for clear consent and a written explanation before work continues.
Does it cost anything to get a re-quote from Fangio?
No. Reviewing your existing quote and giving you our re-quote is free and comes with no obligation.
Do you beat any quote?
We beat the price where we can while still using the right parts and doing the job properly. If the original quote is already fair, we will tell you that too.
