The vehicle looked great in the photos shown, however on closer inspection it had small scratches and dents. The staff member was ( prompt) showing me a handful of wide angle pictures but no close ups revealing damage. Most of the transfers I have done have a system where you get a drawing of the vehicle and ALL damage is marked on inspection. This let's the driver point out any unforseen blemishes etc. To be honest there was nothing noted and that left me feeling vulnerable. I made sure I filmed the vehicle and pointed out all the marks, dents, blemishes. At the return desk in Greymouth the counter lady was nice and polite, but qestions were raised about one one small dent by the fuel flap. I showed my video footage at Christchurch Airport and any pictures that detailed the small ding. In my opinion there was lack of communication. All the damage should be photographed and logged in the system so staff can identify past damage. The reason I am pointing this out is because I've done more then 40 transfers for transfer car and not experienced this before. Apart from that, happy with the overall experience. Thanks kindly

The service was excellent. With the order, the procedures were completed within about 10 minutes; the vehicle was very new with just over 18,000 kilometers; returning the car was also very convenient. As soon as I parked and unloaded my luggage, an employee came to inspect the vehicle and printed the receipt on the spot. Had I known returning the car was this easy, I wouldn't have arrived at the airport so early.

I rented a RAV4 from Budget, and the car was about 80% new and in very good condition. Both the interior and exterior were well-maintained, and the vehicle's performance was great. However, the additional insurance fee was too high. We added comprehensive insurance, which cost more than half the rental fee. If the insurance costs were lower, I'd definitely recommend it more strongly.

They provided me with a Hyundai Tucson with 32,666 km on it. Surprisingly, it was fully equipped with keyless entry and start, heated seats, tri-zone automatic climate control, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control (these two features are really helpful for first-time right-hand drivers, as the car tended to veer left initially), pre-collision warning, steering assist, and rear cross-traffic alert. Apart from the lack of a 360-degree camera, it had everything. There are many winding roads in the South Island, and local drivers take corners very quickly.

I've rented cars from BUDGET many times internationally. The process is quick, and there’s absolutely no upselling of insurance.

Extremely satisfied, everything went smoothly. When picking up the car, the staff mentioned there was a one-year-old Prado available, but they also had a brand-new Endeavour that's only one month old. They asked if I wanted to switch, and I decisively chose the new car. I opted for the full insurance from the rental company. The car was in excellent condition, had no odor, featured a reversing camera, and could connect to a smartphone for navigation. It was the diesel version with strong power, seven seats, and the last row was already folded down to accommodate large luggage. On a rainy day, I drove the mountain roads and switched to four-wheel drive.

Thank you for accompanying us for 2600KM over more than ten days. The vehicle was quiet, handled well, and had great space. Although we originally booked a Prado, the rental company informed us that it wasn’t available and replaced it with the latest 2024 Everest Sport model, a brand-new car with only 3200 KM total mileage.

There were only two groups ahead of me to pick up their cars, and two staff members were handling the process. It was done in five minutes. They swiped the card twice for authorization, with an amount of 0.

No queues, very quick. The vehicle was in excellent condition. The Corolla was easy to drive and fuel-efficient. Picking up and returning the car was very convenient and quick. During pickup, the staff member James was very patient in explaining New Zealand's traffic rules. This self-drive trip was perfect!
