Exceptional automatic transmission servicing business

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a highly respected, profitable and well-run business with a large and loyal customer base and strong industry tailwinds providing substantial growth potential.

Established for over 75 years, this thriving business has grown to become the “go-to” company for specialist automatic transmission services and repairs. Situated in the geographical centre of Newcastle, close to major arterials and having over 30,000 vehicles per day pass its front door, the business operates out of purpose-built facilities from a prominent and highly visible location.

Key considerations:

• Great staff who will stay with the business and highly skilled and qualified mechanics to perform the works


• Excellent opportunity to capitalise on growth market in hybrid vehicles


• Located in a prominent position with purpose-built facilities


• Located close to shops & cafes for waiting customers, but equally is on a major arterial public transport route for those needing to drop off and go


• Diminishing competition as business is known for solving problem cases, leading to loyal repeat customers. Our competitors send us the jobs they can’t solve.


• Large workshop areas with the latest in diagnostic equipment


• 12 in-ground service pits – our mechanics prefer the safety of pits to hoists


• Large areas for parking vehicles


• Large and loyal repeat customer base


• Spare parts store stocking a broad range of parts to minimize repair downtime

The business is benefiting from two persisting changes in the vehicle market in Australia, being:

1. The increase in hybrid electric vehicle sales in Australia, opening up a new market for the vehicle servicing industry, and providing an excellent first-mover advantage which the business is already capitalising on; and


2. The increasing cost of living which is driving customers to hold onto their vehicles for longer, resulting in the need for more servicing and overhauls of older vehicles.
