Customer Review Of Adrian Brien Automotive By Claire And Garry From Glenelg East

It has been our pleasure to conduct business with your dealership over the last two weeks, culminating in the purchase and pickup of a Hyundai ix35 yesterday. Having driven the vehicle for less than twenty four hours, it is difficult at this stage to assess all the wonderful features we fell in love with. But if the smiles on our faces as we drove around Adelaide yesterday are any indication, we are in for a long and satisfactory future together.

Better Than Great

Some more great feedback this month for Daniel and Andy in the New Ford Salesdepartment who continue to provide “Excellent, better than great” service for our Ford customers.

Customer Review Of Adrian Brien Automotive By Alice From Daw Park

Alice called at 3.07 in regards to the help she received from Ivan. After having her car serviced last week she ran into a problem this morning & her car stalled, only a minor problem it turned out to be. When she got to work she called Ivan who collected her car, fixed the problem & returned the car to her work.

Don’t Get Caught In The Sweltering Summer Heat

When the car air conditioning system goes on the fritz, people can lose their cool in more ways than one. More than a few cases of road rage over the years have been attributed to people who completely lost their cool because they were stuck in sweltering heat on a gridlocked freeway.

Customer Review Of Adrian Brien Automotive By Ian From Bellevue Heights

“CONVENIENCE AND THE PRODUCT I WANTED. I HAVE ONLY JUST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AND HAVE ONLY HAD THE FIRST 1000 KM SERVICE DONE. AT PRESENT I HAVE NOT BEEN DEALING WITH THE COMPANY LONG ENOUGH TO HAVE LIKES OR DISLIKES. TO DATE THE SALES SERVICE I HAVE HAD IS SATISFACTORY. I PURCHASED A HIGHLANDER IX35 AND THE ONLY COMPLAINT IS THE REAR CARGO LIGHT IS NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. FUTURE MODELS COULD HAVE ANOTHER LIGHT ON THE OTHER SIDE OR IT COULD BE POSITIONED HIGHER UP TO GIVE BETTER LIGHT IN THAT AREA. WELL LOOKED AFTER BY ALEX HILL.” - Ian From Bellevue Heights

Funny, Enthusiastic And A Great Team Player

Daniel Jones is just the kind of person we like to have working with us at Adrian Brien Automotive; funny, enthusiastic and a great team player. So when he won Salesperson of the Month’ for May, we weren’t in the least bit surprised.

‘It was a team effort,’ says Daniel, ‘I got a nice plaque for winning, but I couldn’t have done it without help from my team, who have all been fantastic to work with since I came back to Adrian Brien Automotive.’

Daniel worked for our dealership a few years ago before heading off on a working holiday visa to the UK with his wife, and when a job opened up at the start of the year, we were pretty pleased to have him back on board.

Green Vehicles Guide Reveals How To Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

Did you know that an electric car owner would have to drive at least 129,000 kilometres before producing a net saving in CO2?

Many electric cars will not travel that far in their lifetime because they typically have a range of less than 145km on a single charge and are unsuitable for long trips. Even those driven 160,000km would save only about a tonne of CO2 over their lifetimes.

4 Ways To Ensure That Your Business Is Easily Found By GPS Users

Global Positioning Systems (GPS) / navigation devices are becoming an integral part of our daily lives. They can be found in many cars and on most phones. The printed street directory is quickly becoming extinct. Personally, I don’t use a street directory anymore. I prefer the convenience of a GPS navigation device when mapping out my journey and to look for places of interest including cinemas, restaurants and shops.
