This highly profitable and long-established automotive performance business represents an exceptional acquisition opportunity in Western Australia’s specialist automotive sector. Long established, this business has developed a strong reputation for technical expertise, premium workmanship, and consistently delivering measurable performance improvements.
Operating from a fully equipped workshop with a purpose-built dynamometer facility, the business provides an extensive range of services, including ECU and dyno tuning, diesel performance upgrades, engine and transmission upgrades, fabrication, advanced diagnostics and the supply of premium aftermarket performance parts. This combination of specialist labour and high-value parts sales creates diversified revenue streams and delivers excellent gross margins.
The business generates annual revenue of approximately $2.8 million and average adjusted EBITDA of approximately $1.18 million. Adjusted EBITDA has exceeded $1 million in each of the past three financial years and is stated after allowing approximately $180,000, including superannuation, for the replacement of the working owner. This provides buyers with a more realistic indication of maintainable earnings under new ownership.
A major feature of the business is its highly efficient and lean operating model, with only 2.5 full-time equivalent staff, including the working owner. Despite its compact team, the workshop is typically booked more than eight weeks in advance, demonstrating strong market demand, operational efficiency and the strength of its reputation.
The business services a broad and loyal customer base across performance enthusiasts, 4WD owners, commercial diesel operators, fleet customers, trade clients and specialist vehicle builders. There is very low customer concentration, with no material reliance on any single customer.
Significant growth opportunities remain available to an incoming owner. These include employing additional technicians to increase workshop capacity, expanding online parts sales, developing interstate distribution, increasing commercial and fleet work, and building on the established diesel and 4WD performance divisions.
With a recognised brand, specialist equipment, proven systems, high barriers to entry and consistently strong profitability, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of Western Australia’s leading specialist automotive performance businesses.
