Advanced Diagnostics
Nova Auto Innovations. Founded By Craig Guldemond In 2000.
As a child, Craig spent his days racing go-karts and watching his father rebuild classic cars. It was during this time that Craig learned the value of every automobile, and learned how the right care and knowledge could extend the life and performance of any car or truck.
Then Craig graduated high school he decided to enter Ultra Tune & Performance Erina, where he learned how to use computer based diagnostic tools to enhance his deep knowledge of automobile engines. Although Craig was learning the most advanced techniques in auto repair, he never forgot the lessons he learned from his father all those years ago.
His father used to repair and restore cars for friends and neighbours; asking for little compensation in return. Craig never forgot the gratitude of those his father helped. He never forgot the warm feeling he felt every time his father would deliver a restored vehicle to someone who couldn’t afford a new one. Craig was determined to honor his father by opening a business that would truly offer value to the community. He promised himself to always provide value and outstanding service, regardless of how large his business grew.
Craig opened Nova Auto Innovations in 2000. Since then he has been providing excellent service and offering outstanding value to people throughout The Hunter. Bring you car in today for a free inspection and see what Nova’s No Hassle Guarantee is all about!
