The car was quite old and had no air conditioning, which was unbearably hot at noon. Other than that, everything was fine. They provided shuttle service between the accommodation and the rental company, making it very convenient after picking up and dropping off the car. The staff were very friendly and introduced us to a full insurance product for NZD 23 per day with a minimum deductible of NZD 200, which was cost-effective! This rental company is not at the airport, so the rental prices are cheaper.

When we arrived in Christchurch, we couldn't find the rental company representative. We had to call and wait for almost an hour before they picked us up. Other than that, the service was satisfactory.

The car's exterior looked a bit old with some paint peeling, but the car's performance was good, and the rental company's service was excellent. They even took us to the airport after we returned the car.
