From the Automotive Specialists' inception in 2005 Darryl Chapman's history in this field dates back to 1990 where he developed his own unique operational strategy, namely, a more personalised service geared to his clients' needs and presented in a relaxed atmosphere.

Darryl takes great pride in helping his clients find their ideal vehicle which can be sourced from anywhere in Australia and it's this personal attention that sees Darryl's clients returning for their next purchase.

Darryl is a ‘Towner' through and through and is a father of seven little ‘Towners' who all share a love of the NQ lifestyle and of course all that it offers, especially the fishing.

More recently Darryl has joined the drag racing circuit with a 2009 win in the ‘Super Sedan' bracket as well as being honoured with the ‘Rookie Racer of the Year' award.
