WHAT DRIVERS
SAY
Real reviews from real customers on Google.
Auto Chico is my favourite workshop in Portugal. They've always taken great care of my cars, are very honest, and have accessible prices. When they couldn't fix one of my cars after I'd already paid, they kept working on it at no extra cost until the problem was solved.

Five-star service. Impeccable attention, everyone is friendly and helpful. I had my Renault serviced and it was the best workshop I've ever taken my car to. I recommend!

I've been a customer for 15 years, nothing but praise. The father and son are always smiling and ready to help. They've helped me at home many times and always make sure to drive us home after dropping off the car.

I had a breakdown very close to this workshop. Mr. João and Mr. Bruno were impeccable — very professional and attentive. They were quick and efficient, and I loved the respectful way I was treated.

The Auto Chico team is clearly very focused on customer service. My car service was done professionally, and since it took a bit longer, they lent me a car for free. I'll be back.

Very attentive and professional. Balanced prices for the service provided. This is the second consecutive year I've brought my car for a service and I couldn't be more satisfied. I recommend.
