CoolDrive Auto Parts

19/05/2026

Adelaide's auto trade network just got bigger. CoolDrive's new Melrose Park branch is open at 20 Bennet Ave - Monday to Friday, 8AM to 5PM.

This is the second South Australian location alongside Salisbury South, and with multiple deliveries a day, if your workshop is in Adelaide's southern suburbs, you've now got better coverage.

Adelaide workshops and parts buyers now have two local branches to pull from - more coverage, faster access to stock, and more flexibility around how and when you order.

You can also browse stock and order through iShop any time — the delivery schedule does the rest.

Same parts range. Same service. One more location working for you.

The whole team at CoolDrive are proud of this one. John Blanchard has been recognised with the Outstanding Service to Industry Award at the 2026 Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association Excellence Awards. One of the most respected acknowledgements that you can receive in the trade.

John has been at CoolDrive from day one carrying out the family legacy for a long time. This is a well-earned recognition of the work he's put into the automotive aftermarket industry.

Three days, eight brands, lots of Tools and Equipment and a couple of awards. AAAE for 2026 is over.

And while it was a big show for us, it was the conversations on the floor were the best part — workshop owners, dealers, fleet managers, and plenty of familiar faces from the trade who made the trip worth it.

If we caught up on the floor, drop a comment, it's always good to hear your thoughts and continue the conversation. 👇

The CoolDrive stand at AAAE brought together the full breadth of what we carry — from CalOffroad suspension and Bremtec brakes to AFI engine management, Jaylec electrical, Jayair and Jayrad cooling, Aunger components, and Ignite lighting. One stand, one supplier, a lot of range covered.

We were also recognised at the Australian Auto Aftermarket Excellence Awards, taking out Best Stand over 36m2 — which is a good reflection of the effort the team put in this year.

There's still time to see it all. The Expo runs through till Saturday. See you there.

AAAE brings the whole trade together with mechanics, suppliers and distributors all under one roof. The conversations here shape the way the industry works for the next 12 months and its great to reconnect with people who will be around for years to come.

Good to see so many familiar faces this week and plenty of new ones.

There's still time to come and see us. The show runs until Saturday. See our announcement for the details👇
