Meet Ryan and Tiff.
Ryan and Tiff are excited to introduce themselves as the new owners of DriveSmart Automotive for 2026 and onwards. Taking over from Hadyn – who is effectively their uncle – the business remains a family affair, with Ryan and Tiff’s daughter Chloe supporting the team in workshop administration.
Ryan brings over 25 years of experience to the role as a Hamilton Mechanic, having worked alongside his father and father-in-law in their respective workshops. Ryan has also served as a Head Mechanic with Possum Bourne Motorsport, managing national and international customers, and, more recently, acted as the number one crew chief for his daughters, Chloe and Jaimee, in their speedway racing.
Ryan and Tiff are looking forward to continuing with the commitment to honest service and quality workmanship that DriveSmart Automotive has prided itself on for the last 30+ years.
