The instructions for the pick up were confusing. The person at in the airport help desk was the one that told us the name of the pick up the vehicle - Airpark Canterbury. That is not the name of the rental company. It would have been helpful to have had that name on the e mailed instructions rather than just a contact phone number which was not answered. I would be more likely to hire again now I know that but at the time it was quite frustrating.

The car performed very well. From the online booking through to sitting in the hire car everything went very smoothly and without delay.

Hope my next rental in Auckland is of the same standard with built in satnav

Staff were friendly and polite. Very easy to deal with

Car was exactly what we needed. The boot was a generous size and fitted a medium suitcase and large rolling duffle bag easily.

Only issue was limited range of alternatives for drop off location. Otherwise excellent
