Wow. I have been blown away. I have severe anxiety and was overwhelmed but the moment I stepped into Portage cars I was greeted friendly but no bombarded by Logan & Sagar. Both have been efficient helpful friendly supportive and very transparent. So excited about my new car & will be highly recommending you guys to anyone looking for a car. Thank you for helping my family moving forward in our new voom voom & having a fantastic experience has just made the whole process exciting and the energy is amazing. Don’t go anywhere else visit these guys first!

I had a fantastic experience with Portage Cars Christchurch. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, transparent, and stress free. John was very professional, friendly, and genuinely cared about helping me find the right car. He explained eveything clearly and made the whole transaction quick and easy. I truly appreciate his honesty and great customer service. Its rare to find a dealership that values customer so much. I highly recommend Portage Cars Christchurch to anyone looking for a great car buying experience.

We’ve just bought a car from Portage Cars today and have been delighted with our experience! Sam was so kind, welcoming and helpful and made our first purchase of a car in New Zealand seamless and enjoyable. We viewed the car in the afternoon and drove out with it same day – really impressed and couldn’t fault it!! Would 100% recommend, thanks again Sam and team 😊

Very happy with both the vehicle itself (an extremely tidy Mazda Demio) and the service we received from John. Very professional and friendly, not at all pushy (yet still persuasive – it’s a true art to get that balance right!). Craig (John’s manager) – you should be impressed!
Our first purchase from Portage Cars – unlikely to be the last, and would highly recommend to all.

Stefan at Portage Cars Wellington was awesome and I bought an awesome BMW at a great price. Being from Nelson we boated up to Wellington and Stefan made it easy to make the purchase. We were collected from our inner city motel and driven to the car yard by Stefan and from there the process was made easy and enjoyable. Thank you Stefan for the good experience!!!

We commend and thank Sagar’s dedication, professionalism, patience, and expertise in helping us purchase a car. He was patient with our questions and identified one that was suitable for us thus creating a stress-free, quick and pleasant car-buying experience. He is friendly and customer focused, and went the extra mile in helping us deliver the car closer to where we lived in east Auckland. We could not be happier with the car we have purchased. Much appreciated Sagar.

I recently purchased my Toyota Prius from Portage, and I couldn’t be happier with both the car and the exceptional service I received. From the very beginning, the team made the process smooth and stress-free. John, who handled my purchase, was fantastic, always available whenever I needed to reach him and provided me with all the information I required. Craig, the manager, also offered great support to ensure everything went perfectly. Overall, the experience exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend Portage to anyone looking for a car.

We’re really happy with our new car. John was friendly and easy to deal with. He kept me updated on status and timing and ensured we had a courtesy car, while something minor was fixed up after the sale.

Nothing but good things, Shane was an absolute legend, one of the nicest guys I’ve met and his service is top notch, genuinely the best experience I’ve ever had with a car yard. Would give 10 stars if I could. Love the quality of the vehicles aswell. Would highly recommend, and would definitely go back to Portage Cars Takanini for another vehicle in the future.
Keep up the good work team. 👍

I had an excellent experience with Portage Cars. Chopper, my salesperson, was very professional and helpful throughout the whole process. The car I wanted was located in Bay of Plenty, and he arranged the transport to Auckland smoothly. He also took care of renewing the WOF and other requirements, replaced the tyres with brand new ones, and delivered the car spotless inside and out. Everything was stress-free and handled responsibly. I’m very satisfied and highly recommend both Chopper and Portage Cars.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Shane Singh at Portage Cars Takanini and I can confidently say the experience was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment I walked in, Shane made me feel welcomed and valued. His professionalism, deep knowledge of the vehicles, and genuine commitment to customer satisfaction truly set him apart.

Shane went above and beyond to ensure I found the perfect car, patiently answering all my questions and guiding me through every step of the process. His attention to detail and transparent communication made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable.

If you’re looking for a dealership that treats you like family and a salesperson who genuinely cares, I highly recommend Portage Cars Takanini and especially Shane Singh. Thank you for the exceptional service!

I recently financed my first vehicle through Portage cars, the team in Christchurch. My experience was a breeze, John was very considerate, staying late to accommodate for my test drive. The whole process was a breeze, and I am beyond stoked with my purchase. Thanks Portage cars, John and Craig. Will definitely recommend to a friend.
