Carrara drivers

Carrara sits directly east of Nerang along Nerang–Broadbeach Road, and the drive to the workshop is one road with no detour. For most of Carrara it is a shorter trip than heading to the coastal strip.

It is also a practical trip for anyone working in the Carrara Industrial Estate. The Lawrence Drive estate the workshop sits in is the same kind of area — Low Impact Industry, trade suppliers, hoists and roller doors — so a work ute can be dropped in without the retail-forecourt routine.

The three things Carrara customers come here for most are the ones this workshop combines: tyres, a service, and a safety certificate when a car is being sold. Doing all three in one booking is the point.

Questions

Carrara — common questions

How far is the workshop from Carrara?

About 4 kilometres, or roughly five minutes in normal traffic, along Nerang–Broadbeach Road. Allow longer in peak, when that road and the M1 interchange both back up.

Can I get a safety certificate for a car registered in Carrara?

Yes. A Queensland safety certificate is issued against the vehicle, not against the suburb it is garaged in, so it makes no difference where in Queensland you live. The Gold Coast is not an exempt area, so a certificate is required when selling a registered vehicle.
