EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS
Dear Team, I recently made a purchase from START MY CAR on the BobShop app. I’m pleased to share that although the estimated availability was approximately one week from the payment date, I required the part urgently. I reached out to your support team and was assured that the item would be ready if I arranged collection with my courier. True to your word, the part arrived the very next day. It was professionally packaged, received in excellent condition, and exactly as advertised—precisely what I needed. Thank you to the entire START MY CAR team for your outstanding service. Truly legendary. Kind regards, Reginald Roux

Happy with my *****
Hi I recently purchased lower ball joints for my opel corsa lite from Start My Car SA, I must be honest and say that I expected some Chinese brand of mediocre quality as the price was rediculously reasonable but to my surprise it was as sturdy and above board just like the other name brands, ( I think it was too but with a different box) thankyou SMC SA I am pleased with the order process which was very easy and the delivery time ,, just as happy with the product,,,,,,,,,,, on another note the packaging is extremely large for such a small product,,,,, Tx

Quality products with speedy service
The Start My Car team had the best price for spark plugs in the country. I ordered them on a Wednesday morning and they arrived at my place in Cape Town less than 48 hours later. The spark plugs were original quality and were a breeze to install. Thanks for the great service. I'll definitely be shopping with you again.

Online ordering and supply
I've been buying car parts for a number of years now and not once was I supp**** the incorrect or faulty parts. I order and pay online and collect when ready. 9/10 times the order is ready for collection on the same day. Deserving of 5 stars.
