Shaun's story

Hi, I'm Shaun, the face behind CRS Auto.

What began with a passion for cars and quality workmanship grew into a business built on honest service, reliability, and helping people get back on the road with confidence.

When you bring your car to CRS Auto, you're not just another customer; you're supporting a local business that genuinely cares about the work we do.

We're a small team servicing the Fairland community and the areas around it. We pride ourselves in helping each and every individual and making sure that, in the end, they travel safely.

Service & repairs

Brakes, suspension, CV joints, clutches, cooling systems — the everyday work that keeps Fairland moving.

Builds & restorations

The project side of the workshop: bare-metal builds, race cars and bringing old ideas back to life.

Why choose CRS Auto

What you can expect from us.

Honest, no-upsell diagnosis

We tell you what your car actually needs — and what can wait. Nothing gets replaced just because it can be.

All makes & models

Daily runarounds, family SUVs, bakkies and performance cars. If it has wheels and an engine, bring it in.

Shaun, hands-on, on every job

This is an owner-run workshop. Shaun is in the bay, not behind a desk, and he answers the phone himself.

Local to Fairland & surrounds

On Smit Street, serving Fairland, Northcliff, Randburg, Roosevelt Park and the wider north-west of Joburg.

Done properly, first time

Built with skill, built with care, built properly — whether it's a brake job or a full engine rebuild.

Clear on time and cost

You'll know what's being done, why, and what it costs before the work starts. If something changes, you hear about it first.
