Car service in Christchurch

“Had a car transported from Auckland to Christchurch. It arrived a day earlier than the vehicle tracker predicted. No noticable damage and friendly service at Christchurch end. The vehicle tracker is not all that up to date with the movement of the shipment but that is no biggy. Happy with service and would use again if required. To my mind,the Company is deserving of the 5 stars awarded.”

“Amazing service from the team at Gary A Smith, from reception to the panel beaters everyone was exceptionally kind. Grateful that my insurance provider (AA) had these guys on their recommendation list. 10/10 would use again.”

“Paul and team did a great job. And very reasonable fee. Will be back.”

“There were a bit of a delay when I reached out via 'contact us' about a question I had, but other than that great service. Fast and efficient and friendly staff. I'll definitely be back.”

“We had a great experience with Ace rentals. We have tried them in Australia many times but this was first time with ace rentals New Zealand. Their services have really impressed us. Firstly shuttle from airport is so easy and quick to book, and you can book in advance via website. Pick up process is very good and smooth and they had already got our ready with all add ons we requested. On the trip we had got a chip on screen, and we got it checked as well. Then we got a invoice from ac rentals which was less than half of what was quoted by three different repair guys. And ace rentals dealt with it very smoothly with no inconvenience at our end. I’m always gonna use ace car rentals in New Zealand in future. They have my satisfaction”

“Thank you for all the complimentary and the odd not so complimentary reviews as it helps us to learn and provide a better service for you. Id like to clarify the two negative reviews below. A) Yes I did hire a sub-contractor to complete mechanical work in my workshop, on an as and when needed bases. This sub-contractors is no longer utilized by Cactus Cars. However if he chose to take on work for someone else on the weekend at his home around the time he sub-contracted to me and others and the job didn’t go to plan. This would be his business and has nothing to do with me as he wasn’t contracted by Cactus Cars to complete this job. and to be clear Tahlia, your vehicle has never been to by business. B) Your van was towed into us (Not starting) We spent about ½ checking your van and identified the plug leads were not transferring enough power to the spark plugs. You were given a price and agreed to have them replaced. You then asked if this would guarantee to fix it and were told “hopefully” this will be the only issue but couldn’t guarantee it. The plug leads were supplied & changed. The van spun over fast but still wouldn’t fire up. A local auto sparky was called in and was unable to identify any issues The customer was asked if they would like us to investigate further and we were told they were not prepared to pay us to investigate further. The customer was charged for the new plug leads, auto sparkys & our time. The customer then asked if a tow start would work and I advised not to as we didn’t know what the problem is. Later that day the customer decided to try and tow start the van, something broke and the engine seized . To be clear • We have no control over what a sub-contractor does when he’s not sub-contracting to us. • If a customer chooses not to take our advice and something goes wrong. We can’t be held responsible.”

“Perry was great to deal with, cheerful and I appreciated the communication and the offer to do the service. He came across very knowledgeable and I appreciated the note about the DM flywheel and the confirmation that the clutch was still in good condition. It's good to know your car is in the hands of experts who know these vehicles well. Also Marty has helped us out in the past supplying a couple of bolts free of charge which was appreciated. Cheers”

“Owen is a very nice and experienced technician. Highly recommended.”

“Awesome could not get a better result.”

“If you need your V8 sorted this is a good place.....”

“I recently purchased this furniture set, and I’m really impressed! The price is very affordable, especially considering the quality. The build feels sturdy, and the materials used are of excellent quality for the price point. The mattress is a highlight—it's firm yet comfortable, providing great support for a good night's sleep. Assembly was straightforward, and the overall design fits perfectly in my space. If you’re looking for stylish, affordable furniture without compromising on quality or comfort, I highly recommend this option”

“Andrew is brilliant and the rest of the team”

“Great service and always helpful. Sent one of my trucks in to get some pretty major work done and it came back spot on and the bill was a lot less scary than I expected. I was impressed that they noted different charge out rates for different people, most of the workshops I've dealt with over the years just have one hourly rate.”

“Excellent service provided by Thomson Rust and Repair Services. We took our campervan in for some required rust repairs and they got it the job completed in less than a week. Dylan was extremely accommodating as we had limited time to get the repairs completed. Communication and updates were excellent. Dylan is a legend. We absolutely recommend this shop.”
