Ford To Cease It’s Manufacturing Operations In Australia

Dealership News

On Thursday the 23rd of May 2013 Ford Motor Company announced that it will cease manufacturing in Australia from October 2016.

Personally this is a very sad announcement and particularly for Australia that we have lost our ability and competitiveness on the world scene in another area of manufacturing. Also for the 1,200 employees that will need to find alternative employment over the next three and a half years – many who have been there for their whole working lives and up to 40 years.

On a more positive note however, Ford in Australia is still the hub of design and engineering for Ford in the Asia Pacific region and they will still employ local Australians in areas such as design, engineering, marketing, distribution, etc.

We at Adrian Brien Ford do not anticipate any material impact on our business given that the majority of our sales to you, our valued customers, are imported vehicles. Going forward Ford Motor Company have announced that they will seek to escalate the introduction of new products for Australian customers (refer to the Ford Media Release (PDF) for more details).

To quote the Ford President “Ford is transforming our business in Australia so that we can offer customers like you even more great new vehicles and an exceptional sales and service experience through your local Ford Dealer.”

Thank you for your ongoing interest and support in our Dealership.

About Step Into Life Group Outdoor Personal Training

At Step into Life Group Outdoor Personal Training, they’re convinced that the key to a happier, healthier lifestyle is regular exercise.

In 1995 their Founder, Larry Cohen, launched Australia’s first Group Outdoor Personal Training program in Melbourne which was the culmination of years of research and industry experience.

Since then they’ve grown to become the market leader in Group Outdoor Personal Training in Australia, with over 160 locations nationally.

Their unique difference? They do it outdoors!

At Step into Life they know that visiting a gym can often be intimidating and leave you feeling less than motivated to achieve your fitness goals. So they’ve done away with the crowded spaces, uninspiring equipment and overbearing instructors. Instead, you’ll find them in some of the most beautiful outdoor spaces this country has to offer where working out with your family and friends is encouraged and your trainer becomes your personal fitness champion!

Their team is passionate about and dedicated to helping you achieve your fitness goals, whatever they may be. Through their eight unique Group Outdoor Personal Training programs, they cater to all abilities and will help you pick the mix that’s best suited to your needs.

Their Group Outdoor Personal Training programs include:

• CardioMax.

They also offer a tailored nutrition plan via Matt O’Neill’s Metabolic Jumpstart and an online store so you can stock up on vitamins and step out in the latest sportswear styles.

Whilst you’ll have a regular fitness plan, they guarantee that the biggest changes will reflect in whatever you do outside of this.

Celebrating 20 Years Of Service With Adrian Brien Automotive

Featured Staff Profiles

This month’s featured staff member is Debbie McMahon who recently celebrated 20 years of service with the Adrian Brien Automotive group. She loves to travel having visited America last year and she is now looking forward to having a white Christmas in Europe at the end of this year. You can learn more about Debbie below.

Deborah MacMahon

Q: How did you get started in this business?

A: I used to work for Fairway Ford in Unley before it was taken over by Adrian Brien Ford in 1990. There was an opening here as a mail out clerk so I applied. I started here working part time and then I got offered a full time role in admin managing accounts so I accepted.

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

A: I live nearby so it’s very convenient for me to come to work every day. Also, there is a lot of variety in my job duties and tasks which I really enjoy.

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

A: I think it’s important to be punctual, work hard and just be reliable but also it’s equally important to have a sense of humour because you have to be able to get along with others, both the people that you work with and the customers that you meet along the way.

Q: Tell us a bit more about your job, what do you do?

A: My primary role is to manage the Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable. Otherwise I’m pretty much a “Jack of all trades” so I get involved in a lot of different parts of the business.

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

A: The Cancer Council.

Customer Review Of Adrian Brien Automotive Service By Rupert From West Beach

Very Efficient And Courteous

Featured Customer Review

This month’s featured customer review is courtesy of Rupert from West Beach who sent us this email regarding his recent experience with the Adrian Brien Automotive Service department.

“I want to record my appreciation for the excellent assistance I received from Bill Guthrie.

My Fairmont Ghia was in for regular service on Tuesday 30th April when a number of necessary repairs were found totalling $2412.

Fortunately an Allianz Warranty Policy was arranged at time of purchase and when I advised Bill he immediately rang the company and then emailed photos of the relevant repairs to them.

Yesterday[Thursday] he received approval for the whole amount and the car is now booked in repairs on the 20th of May.

Please pass on my thanks to Bill for the very efficient and courteous manner in which he handled this matter.

Rupert.”

Car Detailing

What Does It Generally Cost To Get Your Car Detailed?

Car Care Tips And Tricks

Keeping your car clean and tidy is important because it ensures the long term value of your car as well as the enjoyment that you get from driving it everyday. Nobody likes to get into a dirty, smelly car that’s for sure!

If you’re short on time and you’re the kind of person who just loves to have their vehicle looking sparkly and shinny inside and out there are many companies that offer detailing services.

The price of detailing services can cost anywhere from $50 for a basic detailing package up to $700 for a full restoration so it’s important to do your research and ensure that you get the best package for your vehicle type.

With a basic detailing package you will want to make sure that you get the following services as a minimum:

• Exterior wash.
• Clean wheels and wheel arches.
• Clean door jambs.
• Chamois dry.
• Vacuum interior (seats, carpet, boot and ashtray).
• Clean mirrors.
• Clean windows inside and out.
• Dress and detail dashboard and centre console.
• Blacken tyres and mudflaps.
• Deodorise interior.

With a full restoration you can also expect the following services:

• Restoration paint correction.
• Carpet & upholstery extracting.
• Leather treatment and conditioning.
• Engine bay.
• Polishing & glass sealant.
• Headlight restoration.

When you purchase your vehicle from a trusted dealership such as Adrian Brien Automotive you can rest assured knowing that your new or pre-owned vehicle has been fully detailed before you take delivery. This is just one of the many benefits of buying from us instead of from an auction house, privater seller or smaller / less reputable dealer who do not have any quality standards in place to ensure that you are getting a car that is well presented and well maintained.
