Congratulations Bianca And Troy On The Birth Of Your New Baby Boy Harlan!

Congratulations Bianca And Troy On The Birth Of Your New Baby Boy Harlan!

This month’s featured staff member is Bianca Minter. Bianca (and her partner Troy) recently gave birth to a beautiful and healthy baby boy Harlan. Harlan is the third child that Bianca and Troy have had together as husband and wife, the first being Lila (3.5 years old) and Tiger Lily (20 months). You can learn more about Bianca below…

Q: How did you get started in the automotive business?

A: I started in 2001 as a temp, spent some time as the receptionist in the new Ford showroom and then went on to become Andrew’s (the Dealer Principal’s) personal assistant. A few years ago I took some time off to look after the kids. Last year I came back and joined the admin team. Currently, I’m taking some more time off to care for my new baby Harlan.

Q: What do you like about working for Adrian Brien Automotive?

A: I like the work and the people. It’s a close nit team and you make a lot of friends along the way. The job is also intellectually stimulating which is something that I don’t get much of looking after the kids.

Q: Do you have any tips for someone who may be interested in getting into the business?

A: Yes, keep an open mind, be approachable and be willing to learn new things.

Q: What are you promoting at the moment?

A: I love the fact that all staff get a box of chocolates for their birthday and that sales staff make an effort to also call customers on their birthday. It’s great that as a business we take the time to do the little things to show people that we care about them and make them feel like they are part of the “family”.

Q: Is there a charity or community group that you currently support?

A: I generally support the Children’s Oncology Ward which is a special unit for kids with cancer.

A Quick Gentle State Of The Art Car Wash Guaranteed!

A Quick Gentle State Of The Art Car Wash Guaranteed!

Car Care Tips And Tricks

Having your car washed regularly is important for the long term look, appeal and comfort of your vehicle but unfortunately most of us don’t have the time to take out the hose, bucket, sponge and give the car a good rinse and polish.

That’s why we are very excited to inform you that the new Adrian Brien Automotive Car Wash is fully functional! Unfortunately there were some delays during the installation process and it took longer than we expected which means that some people may have missed out on a car wash if they had their car serviced over the past few weeks. However it is now fully installed and ready to go.

The new Adrian Brien Automotive Car Wash features:

  • 4.5 minute wash and dry;
  • A gentle state of the art reverse osmosis, soft water and streak free system;
  • Trained staff on site.

Basically what all of this means is that we now have a greater capacity to wash cars than ever before and we can almost guarantee that you will have your car washed and looking great the next time you pick it up after a service.
