Hello 👋
I’m Adrianne, a Hawke’s Bay-based Business Manager with 20+ years’ experience across insurance, banking and vehicle finance.
I help individuals, families and businesses throughout New Zealand navigate vehicle funding, insurance and protection with real conversations, clear explanations and no unnecessary jargon.
Because finding the right solution starts with understanding you — not simply selling you a product.
My Story
My career in finance and insurance began more than 20 years ago, and over that time I've worked across insurance broking, banking and vehicle finance.
Those different sides of the industry have given me a broad understanding of both funding what matters to people and protecting it once they have it.
Today, as a Business Manager with Bayswater Vehicle Group in Hawke’s Bay, I help people throughout New Zealand with vehicle funding, refinancing, insurance and protection solutions.
But what I enjoy most about my job isn't the paperwork or the numbers.
It's the people behind them.
Every customer comes to me with a different story. Someone might be buying their first car, finding a bigger vehicle for a growing family, moving into an EV, buying privately, adding a work ute to their business or finally purchasing a vehicle they've wanted for years.
That's why I don't believe there is one solution that's right for everyone.
I like to understand what you're trying to achieve first, explain the options available in plain English and give you the information you need to make your own informed decision.
More Than Just Finance
Depending on your circumstances, I can help with vehicle funding and refinancing, personal and business lending, private-sale purchases, motor vehicle insurance, mechanical breakdown insurance, GAP insurance, payment protection and paint, leather and fabric protection, as well as business equipment funding.
I work with individuals, families and businesses purchasing all kinds of vehicles — from everyday cars, SUVs and utes to EVs, hybrids, classics, commercial vehicles and fleets.
I Love Cars Too
My connection with vehicles isn't only professional.
I'm also the proud owner of a 1991 Nissan Figaro, and owning a classic has reminded me that sometimes a vehicle represents much more than its dollar value.
It might give you independence, help support your family, earn income for your business, take you on adventures — or simply make you smile every time you see it.
I think those things matter too.
That combination of professional experience and genuine interest in vehicles is also why I created this website and my blog.
I want to make vehicle funding, insurance and ownership easier to understand and share some of what I've learned along the way.
Real chats. Smart choices. Confident ownership. Peace of mind.
