Customer Comments
happy about nz customers

On Saturday I visited your business premises with some friends from China in regards to completing a rental car booking. Your staff on reception were very helpful and excellent to deal with. Taking the time with Asian tourists is not always commonplace so I would like to compliment your staff.
