Jacques Saba has been in the motor repair business for the past 27 years and in that time he’s gained a reputation as a local guru of car problem solutions.
As director and head mechanic of Exceltune in Sunshine for a decade, Jacques, along with his team, specialise in servicing and repairs of European cars, mainly those with the well-known badges of Mercedes-Benz, VAG (VW and Audi group), BMW and Mini Cooper.
“We work on all makes and models but call ourselves the experts when it comes to Euro vehicles,” says Jacques.
“If people want more power and fuel economy, or performance upgrade power chips for diesel and petrol motors, we have the solution.”
Exceltune has a pair of offers that will prove a huge bonus for customers.
One is free roadside assistance (including towing) for six months with every service.
The other is the offer of the Ezi-Pay system which allows customers to access a payment instalment plan — incurring zero interest — so paying for repairs has never been easier.
Jacques and customer service manager John Antoniou are rightly proud of the Exceltune name, one representing the cream of the crop when it comes to electronic diagnostics.
“Our diagnostic equipment removes all the guesswork when we work on cars so customers can have assurance their vehicle will be trouble-free when we finish.
“And we provide tailor-made solutions, beginning at the initial quote through to final invoicing.
“Customers are kept informed every step along the way,” he says.
A Bosch nationwide warranty applies to all electrical repairs and the business uses only genuine parts or OEM alternatives when completing servicing and repairs.
An authorised RWC inspection centre, Exceltune also carries out logbook servicing within factory specifications without affecting a new car warranty.
Other services the team provides include computerised engine tuning, airbags, ABS and computer coding and decoding, retrofit conversions, fitting of after-market products and parts and key remotes programming and adaptations for Mercedes-Benz, VAG, BMW and Mini Cooper.
From tyre replacement, ABS repairs, airconditioning repairs and wheel balancing to EFI repairs, LPG tuning and free 5-point VACC inspections, Exceltune has an extensive services menu that promises freedom from under-the-bonnet troubles.
