We had a fantastic experience with Portage Cars Christchurch.
A special thank you to John, who was honest, helpful, and transparent throughout the entire process. He was upfront about what he knew and made sure we had all the information we needed to make our decision without any pressure.
As we were relocating to Queenstown, John also helped organise vehicle transportation from Christchurch, which made the process much easier for us.
We were especially grateful to Craig, the manager. During the time we were making our decision, the transportation fee increased between May and June. However, Craig kindly honoured the original transportation price that had been discussed with us in May. That level of customer service and goodwill really stood out.
Buying a vehicle can be stressful, but John and Craig made the experience smooth, professional, and trustworthy. We would happily recommend Portage Cars to anyone looking for honest service and great customer care.
Thank you again!

Had a fantastic experience with Kasey at Portage and her amazing customer service! Showed me good options, got to test drive a few vehicles, one being test driven a couple of times to make sure it was the one. Was my first time making a car decision on my own but she helped me out to make sure I made the right long term decision! Highly recommend! Great customer service and quality vehicles (and even if I didn’t feel something was right, I had reassurance that it would be perfect before leaving the lot) 🖤

Very happy with our experience buying our new mitsi asx. Kasey was absolutely wonderful to deal with. Offered many options to get us the best deal possible.
100% would come back in the future

Kasey made the process of purchasing our new car so easy and stress free. She kept great contact and fast turn around for us to pick up our new car in only a couple of days from first getting in touch. Highly recommend

Andrew, was so helpful with the whole process. Our application was approved within hours and even on a Saturday.
When we received the van it was spotless, nicely valet.
Would do business with them definitely in the future.
Thank you Andrew and team for the great service.

Portage Cars Tauranga truly sets a high standard for professionalism and customer service. From the moment I arrived, Andrew (Branch and Finance Manager) made me feel welcomed, demonstrating exceptional transparency and care throughout the entire process.
My experience with Andrew was outstanding. He was highly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive, taking the time to clearly explain all finance options and patiently answer every question. He ensured everything was tailored to my needs, making the entire experience seamless and reassuring.
What stood out most was Andrew’s honesty, transparency, and strong focus on customer satisfaction. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure a smooth, stress-free process, both before and after the purchase. At no point did I feel pressured—only guided with genuine intent to help me make the right decision. His leadership is clearly reflected in the exceptional service standards at the Tauranga branch.
The pre-sale and post-sale support were equally impressive. Every detail was handled with professionalism, and the follow-up after delivery showed a true commitment to customer care, not just closing a sale. Any questions or assistance needed were addressed promptly and thoroughly.
I highly recommend Andrew and the Portage Cars Tauranga team to anyone seeking outstanding service and a positive, trustworthy car-buying experience. Overall, Portage Cars delivers exceptional vehicles, top-tier service, and genuine customer satisfaction, making the entire journey smooth and enjoyable.
