The car was quite old for rental agency standards (160.000 km driven at pick up time) and not very clean (used seats, dirty windows, poor wipers). Driving the car was smooth though and it was very reactive.

Very kind and helpful pickup hall at Invercargill. Car did well over the 4300+ kilometers. No issues with tyres even after so much driving on rough surface NZ roads. The windscreen wipers and washer bottle was used often over the many rain days of driving and yet never ran out of fluid. After hours drop off in Auckland was a bit confusing initially but fairly easy and I didn’t get stranded. Great driving experience in beautiful NZ!
