I bought my first truck from Westar last month ,and i was far from impressed my salesman was Keith Dusting .I had explained that i needed a small truck that i could drive on a car licence , i was shown a truck in the yard and things went from there ,i was never shown inside the truck .When i was told the price of the towbar ,i said that it sounds very expensive, Keith called the sales manager to explain ,instead of explaining that the price included an electric brake controller they left me sitting alone while they both went into an office and spoke privately, on return i was advised to get my own towbar .What did they say that they couldnt say in front of me ? I agreed to buy the truck for the advertised price with no extras .On 31/3 i was at the dealership signing papers and was expecting to take delivery ,thats why the delivery date says 31/3 , i asked Keith if someone could follow me to my house in the truck ,he explained that the truck was being detailed and getting a full tank of diesel .Then he disappeared out the back and just left me standing alone in the dealership ,why didnt he just say that the truck wouldnt be ready for delivery until the following week ? He never returned, and after a while the finance manager came out and explained that finance was pending and to come back next week (even though the first direct debit came out exactly 28 days from the 31/3 ) . I took delivery of the truck on 8/4 not 31/3 just look at the registration date . I was given a gift pack which contained a smart looking vest it was too small ,when i explained this to a dark haired lady at the dealership she went and spoke to the sales manager she returned with a different vest that was still too small ,i was told that it will have to do because thats all they have ,then after i get my own towbar fitted by their fitter for the same price Keith had quoted i took the paperwork to Vic Roads and they informed me that the truck was registered as a heavy vehicle and that i couldnt drive it on my licence .The energetic vibe out the back is totally different to the sombre uninviting front of the business .Its hard to understand that the back of the business is so much better than the front ,since the front is the first port of call when buying a truck .I am very happy with my truck .I am not happy with the way i was treated .I rang the front desk plenty of times to speak to Keith and was given the brush every time .That front sales section needs a complete overhaul or at the very least some training .

I have been getting my truck serviced by Westar from new for 21 years while living about 90 minutes away. I updated it in December 2022 purely for one reason, that being my relationship with Michael Porter. Michael has never let me down and always goes the extra mile to get things sorted. To be honest, the service team led by Scott have been brilliant, friendly and I feel they have always given me the right advice. Even though I feel my truck may be considered a Tonka toy by some, I have always received the same level of service and been made to feel like a valued customer. Thanks again Michael, you're a star.

Since my first contact with Westar (Derrimut VIC), right through to the pickup of my new truck, Westar (Derrimut VIC) have acted very professional with integrity and very good communication. Their web site is easy to navigate and informative without being over complicated. I would not hesitate to deal with this company again in the future. I am very happy with their product and highly recommend them. Thanks Craig for your assistance through the purchasing process right through to delivery. The whole process was very smooth.

Recently Purchased truck from Westar. It was great service from all team, but special thanks to Matthew. He was the guy who helped me throughout the process and makes the process smooth and easy . He acts professionally and explained each and everything in detail from beginning to end. It was nice dealing with him. Highly recommended.

  • Sam Gabites

Stopped in at Westar Truck Centre to get some repairs done on a small truck whilst on an interstate run from Sydney. They were able to fit me in at 3pm the same day before a public holiday long weekend and the issue was sorted that day. Very knowledgable and efficient team, the best Isuzu dealership service i have dealt with by far.

  • Suman Gill

We Had a great experience buying a new truck at Westar Truck Centre. Jason Leckie and the team were excellent in accommodating all our modification requests and provided a smooth hassle free delivery in a very short time frame. Thanks Jason for making the purchase an exciting and effortless experience for Skilcon.

  • Enzo Donato

Been getting my truck serviced here for many years. The service team are very professional and friendly especially Michael Porter who goes out of his way to make what ever you need done happen to get you back on the road asap. Always a pleasure to deal with Scott and the team i would highly recommend

  • junda shao

not bad, service could be better as made me wait 20 min for a sales rep, but the guy they ended up giving me was pretty good and honest. I walked in and was prepared to buy 100k worth of trucks on the spot, not sure if they knew that ahead of time whether or not it would have made a difference.

  • Suzanne Klemke

The service we received from Josh was fantastic when purchasing our new Isuzu. Regular communication and updates in respect to the status of our delivery times enabled us to plan and arrange pickup from NSW. Impressed with Ollie (the truck) so far. Thanks again Josh! Cheers from Andrew

  • paul viola

Contacted Westar in an attempt to get parts which I had been struggling to find through any other dealer. From start to finish Paul in parts was of tremendous help, and only a few days after speaking with him the parts were in my workshop being fitted. Would happily recommend.

  • Ben Morrissey

Recently purchased a truck off Mathew Hendricks, amazing salesman, doesn’t beat around the bush, clear and understanding communication, good to see after sale care as well and I was needing some extra documents and was straight on to it, will definitely be back in the future

  • Troy Booth

I purchased a Isuzu truck from Westar Derrimut which included one year FREE servicing as a part of the deal. Westar have tried and refuse to honour the contracted agreement. I would not trust any deal done with this company and will be taking legal action. CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

  • James Hutchison

Westar Trucks Derrimut is our goto place for servicing our fleet of MAN truck mounted EWP . Clint & Michael in the service department are great guys and go the extra mile to assist you in getting your truck back on the road ASAP . I highly recommend Westar Trucks Derrimut.

  • Julie

Amazing experience sourcing a hard to find part with Paul in the Parts department. He had fantastic knowledge on his subject and really knew his stuff. Part was sent really quickly and most importantly, was the correct version of the water pump we had been looking for

  • Matthew Sacco

Recently purchased a LNR SWB from Matt Hendricks and the service he provided was perfect, nothing was too hard or a issue, Matt took his time to explain how things worked and also managed the toolbox manufacture with a smooth handover Great job Matt!

  • Paulo Reddin

Staffing issues Things that should be simple like preparing an invoice take ages Service advisors are friendly but they don’t call back . If you are happy to take your truck to some one who cannot remove and balance a wheel this might be the ok for you !

  • Adam Tagliaferro

Just picked up our brand new NPS from the team and could not recommend these guys more. Matt made us feel comfortable and in safe hands through the whole process. And even with our excessive calls asking for updates and our lack of patience

  • Kapil Sandhu

Stay away from them. Bought a Western Star agi truck from them 6 months ago. Had a problem with the 2nd steer tyres, which they changed it first time. After 2months the problem was still there. Now they saying they can't do much about it.

  • Cyn

Keep away from this place. Very unethical and unproffessional. Charged more than $800 for labour for not doing anything. Did not fix original issue but caused additional electric faults. Refused to give reasoning for the charge, stated

  • Peter Wright

Absolutely A1 useless. Truck went in for service and 5th wheel was dry. Trucks come put of there in an un-roadworthy condition. Once mine came out from a service and i had to top the engine oil up after a 80 km drive.

  • Max grant

The front of house staff could benefit with some extra training. When customers are waiting to pick up their whiecles don't ignore them. They are the ones keeping you employed.
