Our reviews

A big thanks to Craig & John for your great service in helping us get our new car. We were shocked that finance came through quick when it only took 3- 4 days for approval. Really loved our new addition to the family & we would highly recommend Portage Cars to purchase a new car.
Once again thank you Portage Cars.

I was just scrolling through the internet looking to upgrade to a bigger car. Came across a car that my wife admired with Portage Cars. I enquired and got a phone call from John.Went to the dealership and met up with John where he was very helpful. Didn’t take long that I had agreed a trade in price with their manager Craig. Craig explained thoroughly the financial process and it just few days time, I was able to get my new car. Even there was a special promotion for every new car purchase, it would come with a new car stereo. Hats off to John and Craig for helping my family with our new car. I strongly recommend anyone looking for a new car, go to Portage Cars.

5 stars for a 5 star car yard which is NOT easy to find these days they truly take pride in there business and the selling of there cars.

This place is TOP NOTCH for no BS service cars and attitude. My partner messaged Caleb yesterday and we were in there today to purchase our car, just amazing. Price was brought down so both parties were happy, Caleb was great with ensuring us that it would receive a new warrant service and a groom (we were too excited to wait and wanted to pay and drive away today) so booked in to go back next week to have completed. Keeping in mind, this was close to there closing time for the day!

We have had bad experiences with car yards as alot take your money and run with no professionalism what so ever. This place is truly a hidden gem! If you haven’t come across this place already, do yourself a favor and go there for your next car! Thanks Caleb, we LOVE our Kia sportage and will recommend family & friends. Good stuff Portage Cars Takanini.

Happy as customers, Jess & Pete =)

I recently traded in my old car and purchased a Mercedes A250 from Portage, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, everything went smoothly. A special shoutout to John—he was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire process. He made sure I understood all my options, answered every question, and made the whole trade-in and buying process feel easy and stress-free. The car is in excellent condition, and the customer service was top-notch. Highly recommend Portage if you’re looking for a trustworthy place to buy your next vehicle!

We recently brought a MG from Craig and the team at Portage cars. Absolutel legends ti deal with from start to finish. Great vehicle but the service and professionalism is the key. They own it. If yourlooking for decent cars and great price and service. Start there.

If you want to buy a car with Finance or not, portage cars (especially New Lynn) is the best place. Harvey is the best of best and not only thinks about her job or selling a car. She puts herself in the client shoes and goes beyond to assist her clients. Portage cars is my recommendation 10000%, if you want to buy a car.

Sales people are friendly here. The guy who helped me was very attentive. Greeting me when I first arrived. Cars are all nicely presented and well cleaned. This place is a good option if you’re in the market for a used vehicle.

My partner and I visited Portage Cars New Lynn to check out a car we were interested in, and thanks to the amazing team, we ended up signing the contract right away. Sagar and Harvey were extremely professional, friendly, and a huge help throughout the car-buying process. It was clear that they are passionate about what they do. Thank you for all your assistance!

I recently replaced my old car at Portage Cars Christchurch via the trade-in scheme, and it has been a good experience. Craig was helpful from the moment we walked in, and the first car I liked turned out to be the right one to be my next car. After the purchase, he offered an add-on to replace the inbuilt stereo with a wireless CarPlay system, which has made my daily drives much more convenient. I also had a few extra requests, and Craig has been happy to help with those. If I have any concerns, he’s always willing to discuss and assist. Overall, it’s been a smooth and positive process. I’d recommend Portage Cars Christchurch and Craig!

I recently purchased a vehicle and would not hesitate to recommend to others. All staff have been so helpful even when I drove back in a couple of times to sort something out. Extremely helpful, pleasant and nothing they couldn’t sort for me.

Buying my car from Fenelle and Shane at Portage Cars, Takanini made a stressful experience easier. They weren’t pushy as some are. They were helpful and answered all my questions. They went the extra mile to help me.
I would definitely recommend going to see them
for any purchases.

Very happy with my car purchase at Takanini Portage Cars. Caleb even drove the car I was interested in to my home… I live over the Nth Shore! His customer service was impressive and he honoured all that we agreed on. Very happy customer.
