About Us

Hi my is Anthony Forti and I am the General Sales Manager here at Wodonga Car World. I have been in the automotive industry since 2003 where I started my career as a sales cadet with a large multi franchise dealership in Melbourne. I spent 14 enjoyable years with this dealership working closely with the staff to deliver a high level of standards, delivering great customer service and a friendly after sales experience. In 2017 my wife Renee and I decided to make the tree change and move to her home town of Wodonga. We felt that Wodonga would be a great place to settle as our children were transitioning into their adolescent years. Upon moving to Wodonga I secured a full time role as a Sales Manager at Albury Wodonga RV World. I spent 3 years with this company where I learnt a lot about the RV industry and really enjoyed dealing with the local Albury Wodonga community and surrounding areas. During the early stages of 2020 I found myself missing the motor industry and I was fortunate enough to have been offered an opportunity to join this well known, locally family owned business since 1983. I am committed to offer my knowledge and experience in both the automotive & RV industry, to deliver the highest level of customer service and build great long term relationships with all of our customers. I take much pride in making sure that all of our staff at Wodonga Car World deliver a pristine level of customer service to all of our current and future customers. So if you’re in the market for a new, used vehicle or perhaps looking at travelling around Australia in a new Avida Motorhome, please feel welcome to drop into our dealership and we will do our very best to assist with your enquiry. I look forward to meeting you in the dealership. Anthony Forti.
