We traded in our old car and upgraded to a hybrid with Portage Cars. We were honestly surprised by how good the condition of the new car was. It was really clean, well looked after, and the quality was much better than we expected from a used car.

John and Craig were both great to deal with. They made the whole process easy and comfortable without any pressure. We’re really happy with our new hybrid and the decision to trade our old car in. Definitely appreciate the effort they put into making sure we were happy with the car.

I had John assist me throughout the whole searching process and ultimately buying a car. He was really helpful suggesting car option within the range I was looking for, both in type o car and pricing. He was very friendly and easy to contact. Portage cars itself had amazing cars at great values. Would recommend and will be back in future. Thank you John!

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!

I recently purchased a vehicle from Portage Cars in Christchurch and had a very positive experience from start to finish. Sam, the sales representative, was extremely friendly, approachable, and helpful. He took the time to understand my requirements and ensured the entire process was smooth and stress-free, without any pressure.

Andrew, who is based in Tauranga, handled the finance side of things and was equally professional and supportive. Despite being in a different location, he made the process seamless by clearly explaining all details and promptly addressing any questions I had.

Overall, the service was excellent, and the entire experience was efficient and pleasant. I would highly recommend Portage Cars to anyone looking for a reliable and customer-focused car buying experience.

We had a really great experience from start to finish. Everything went smoothly and was handled efficiently, which made the whole process quick and stress-free. There was a great range of car options to choose from, making it easy to find something that suited our needs.
This is our second time buying a car here, and both experiences have been excellent. John, the salesman, was very helpful in guiding us to the right car based on what we were looking for, and Craig, the manager, was also very supportive throughout the process.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we would definitely recommend them.
