Hello Paul, many thanks for sending the invoice thus enabling me to keep an accurate service record for the car. I am very happy with the purchase and particularly impressed with the quality service you and those of your team demonstrated. I am more than happy to recommend B&W to anyone seeking a top presented vehicle from a reputable company. Kind regards

David

Good morning, Rhys, just wanted to pass on that the purchase experience was smooth and hassle free. From the moment we walked in, Paul was helpful, transparent, and very knowledgeable. A credit to your team. All questions were answered; he made the trade-in/paperwork a breeze. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from him again. Loving my new vehicle – that is when I can get it back from my husband! Many thanks

Bridget

Absolutely fantastic customer service. Good communications, very flexible to customer needs, superb after-sales care. Highly recommended!

Emma

Exceptional Business – There is a lot to like about this outstanding motor vehicle dealer, located close to the former Jade Stadium.
Unlike many of their fellow businesses there is no sense of pressure from the excellent staff – just a genuine interest in how they may be off service to you. There is an impressive range of vehicles on offer. I was interested in a Volvo [not the easiest car to find] and within minutes I was off a personal test drive. Loved the car and the process that followed was smooth and flawless. The vehicle was serviced and a fresh WOF issued, following immediate attention to a couple of details. With the paperwork complete and insurance organised I took delivery a couple of days later. But what followed next was superb. I had a mechanical issue a few days after purchase and B&W immediately took the car back and got it fixed; it wasn’t a simple job [Volvos never are!] so they loaned me a car whilst the repairs were done. When fixed the car was delivered to me and the loan car taken away. Can’t beat that for service.

Hi Rhys, Thank you for your message. My experience was great, calm stress-free process which it often is not. I did not feel pressured, I feel we got a good deal with trade in etc and absolutely love my new car… we just had a little glitch with a orange wee light (sorry don’t know technical word). But all taken care of , we got a loan vehicle, and it was kindly dropped back to me at home, so great experience, thank you.
Kind regards

Linda

Hi Rhys, Thanks for your email. I am delighted with my purchase and the attention paid by both Paul and Jo to everything related to the sale of the vehicle and its aftermath. I will happily recommend your company to others.
Best wishes

Brian

I worked with Harlen and he was fantastic actually – did what he said, and all went without a hitch. Harlen made it very simple and a great fella. No issues at all and very happy with the new car thank you. Best car transaction I have had. Thank you.

Shane

Recently purchased a Colorado though the team at Black and White Motors. Highly recommend the team there, they were super helpful & very responsive. Great car yard!

Highly recommend – top customer service! Harlen took care of all the details to get my new car ready & delivered.

Hi Rhys, Thank you for your email. I’m very happy with my purchase the Fiat 595 and how easy everything was. I’ve got the hang of it. 😄. Nippy and easy to park. Thanks again

Tracey

Hi Rhys, thanks for the follow up. I am very pleased with my Jag and thought it was well prepared for sale, Your team was professional and made the trade in and purchase stress free. I would not hesitate to recommend or repeat my business. Cheers

Mike

My experience was very positive from the casual but efficient initial contact and test drive where the salesperson makes an effort to make a connection without any pressure to the process of the purchase by phone and email which was easy with your company going the extra mile to negotiate a deal which was fair leaving me happy with the purchase.

Paul

Hi, thank you very much for your e-mail. You are probably pleased to hear that I am very happy with everything, and everyone involved in my purchase. The car was in a fantastic condition, and everyone I met at the office was very kind and flexible. In my opinion, this is one of the best cars purchases I’ve ever done. You feel more serious than the average ”car salesman”. I will be more than happy to recommend you to my friends, and I will come back if I need to upgrade or sell my car.

Chris

Hi Rhys and team. Can NOT fault anything about your service etc. Fantastic service, Love, love the BMW and fantastic communication from Jo.
The best service we have had from a Car sales by far. Will be recommending you to all.

Cherrie

We had identified a vehicle that we were interested in. The presentation of the car was exceptional. Both Paul and Rhys were knowledgeable, and after some “dickering” we agreed on a price, and a deal was done.
This car sales were full of late model vehicles. Vans, SUV’s, compact cars, Utes and Sedans, all in amazing presentation and price. A very pleasurable experience. I recommend these gentlemen and their car sales yard.

Neil

Hi Rhys, …..Very pleased with my purchase of the wee blue Jimny! Paul was amazing and Jo too! Flawless transaction really.

Thanks so much, love my new car!

Jessica

Paul and the team were extremely helpful and went above and beyond. So grateful for the lengths they went to, to make sure the car was in the best condition it could be when being sold to me. Would 100% recommend them to anyone.

Maddison

I purchased a 2009 Land Rover Discovery 3 from Black & White in November 2024. I’ve been driving it for over six months with zero issues and recently had it serviced. The mechanic mentioned it had clearly been well looked after — which lined up perfectly with what the team at Black & White told me before I saw it.

After placing a deposit, they had the vehicle checked at a specialist European garage and fixed a few minor things at their own cost.

I flew in to collect the car, and they even picked me up from the airport. At the yard, they gave me all the time I needed to look over the vehicle. They were friendly, courteous, and professional throughout the whole process.

I’d definitely buy from them again. Highly recommended!

Google review, via Business client

Paul was very helpful, and he gave me a couple of suggestions and it worked really well. We had a nice trip back to the West Coas, the car went really well.

M & G

Good afternoon, Rhys, I am a very cautious person, particularly financially, however Jo and Paul were very professional, timely and proactive. This made me feel confident and comfortable with undertaking this purchase despite being at the other end of the country.

On a personal note, unfortunately my husband is going blind. This will be the last car he drives and as a Holden man, the car is a dream come true for him. Thank you and the team for the seamless service. Warm regards.

Miranda

Usually apprehensive about buying from a dealer but these guys are top notch. Even had a few issues after the sale but the team have excellent after sales support. They really do care about customer satisfaction.

Chris

What an excellent team! We test drove a lovely car and were blown away with the passion and care that Paul provided to us.
Even though we didn’t end up buying from here I just want to extend my gratitude to the team for their outstanding customer service. Jo from the finance side helped us look into their finance option and even offered to help us if we brought from another dealership.
We were so pleased with your service Paul and Jo. Keep up the great work and I am sure we will be back in the future to get that dream car 🙂

Ashleigh

I recently bought a Touareg from Black and White after great guidance for a towing vehicle from Harlen. They offered me a very good trade in price and this whole process was so easy. Absolutely no pressure, just good honest guidance. On top of this, the aftersales service from both Harlen and Rhys is beyond great, their promise of fixing any issues was completely true and more. I went and saw them about 2 issues which really wasn’t on them, but they made me feel comfortable seeking their help and went above and beyond to rectify these at I’m assuming great expense.. I am still amazed at how much they genuinely care for their customers. Very happy to recommend thesen guy’s, fantastic experience.

Ben

Rhys , Thank you and your team, we are extremely happy with everything! We love our new car, and it was great doing business with you. We have been recommending your company to friends and family. Jo rocks!!

Marie

I had a great experience with Black & White. Both Paul and you were fantastic to deal with. There was no pressure to buy. I really appreciated that Paul sent through the extra month’s registration, making good on his promise.
We are loving the new car. I certainly have no hesitation in recommending you.

Heather

Just a quick email while I have 5 mins spare to say thanks for organising the Raptor deal. As per usual, your honest and dedicated approach to sourcing an excellent example of a vehicle is why I will continue to come back to you for my used car purchases.
The ethics that you run your business by are a testament to your success. Finance, I usually organise my own – however, Jo, you had it well organised and I will definitely utilise this facility in the future. Long story short – it’s great to find a salesperson who has the customers best interests at heart. Being realistic and honest, providing service over and above what’s necessarily goes a long way today.

Reuben

Thanks for following up on my recent purchase. 100 % for Harlen. Everything easy as considering out of town purchase. I knew what I was looking for and Harlen assured me before traveling that the car was as advertised as purchased unseen. Very happy with the purchase. Very enjoyable day trip from Dunedin to pick up. Well run ship guys!

David

J letting you know we love our Porsche it’s the very best, going like a dream. It’s wonderful to use it as an everyday car as thrilling as it is!

Rosie

We found dealing with your company so easy. We had a fault with the car, and you put it right and while it was being fixed, We were given a loan vehicle. We also found that dealing with Paul was super easy as we felt that he went out of his way to make it easy for us.
We would have no hesitation to deal with your company in the future.

Richard

So far, I am happy with my purchase and the vehicle is reliable. The B&W team also assisted me well with the vehicle purchase process and I appreciate it. I look forward to driving it for long. Thanks once again.

Ray

Absolutely loving the X3. And will return to you for our next purchase.

Steve

Hi guys great trade with you guys really happy will buy of you again and recommend you to our friends very good to deal with all the best.

Kevin

Rhys for your guidance with the process of buying the Mercedes its a beautiful car still getting used to it lol very happy and once again awesome service.

George

Hi Rhys, I would like to say your team especially Paul have been wonderful all the way through the car buying process answering any questions and sorting out the faulty sensors. I had been to a lot of cars sales yards and wouldn’t go back because of the pressure put on me and being treated like I knew nothing, this didn’t happen at Black and White.

I know you know what a great team you have and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Black and White to anyone.

Chris

FANTASTIC experience buying a late model CX9. We are in Auckland so got AA to inspect in CHCH. Inspection found condition exactly as described by Paul. Paul also popped the vehicle into Mazda for it’s 3rd free service. He then arranged transport to Auckland and had it to us by the end of the week!

We are delighted with the vehicle and can’t speak highly enough of the service we received from Paul! Also the integrity of this business, from our experience is very high.

Paul

Hi guys great trade with you guys really happy will buy of you again and recommend you to our friends very good to deal with all the best.

Kevin

I would just like to say thankyou i am very pleased with my vechicle and a very friendly easy going staff you have got which made everything quick and easy once again it was a pleasure to deal with you. Thanks.

James

Thank you so much for your email. Absolutely loving the X3. And will definitely return to you for our next purchase.

Steve

An absolute pleasure buying our car from Rhys. The whole experience was fabulous, they go the extra mile and my car is wonderful. I will now continue to come back and upgrade when the time comes. Thanks heaps.

Michelle

Hi Rhys, I just wanted to say thank you for the job that your team did with the purchase of my car, from initial contact right to the end Paul did a outstanding job in keeping me updated and answered all my questions no matter how trivial they might have been. I have now received the car safety and very satisfied with condition. Being as this was not only the 1st time, I had bought a EV but also 1st time bought a car unseen, the team made the process stress free and I would not hesitate to recommend your company or use your services again in the future. Keep up the good work – Thanks.

Kevin

Thank you for assisting me in choosing my new vehicle. As I’m not a car person ,so choosing a new car can be very challenging for me. I found your service very pleasant with absolutely no pressure. The salesperson was friendly and helpful and informative. I would not hesitate to recommend your company.

Trish

So easy to deal with. Live in Nelson and dealt with Paul over email. Drove down to test drive and purchase. Paul made it a very easy, friendly exchange. Highly recommend. Very happy customer.

Delwyn

What a very professional company to deal with. Felt like I was number one customer. Excellent service, nothing was a hassle to Paul. I would highly recommend this motor company to all…

Sharon

I’m extremely happy with the service I got from Paul Scott Hewitt he was amazing no issues at all extremely efficient and easy also very happy with the car. Thanks so much.

Nick

Harlen from Black & White was absolutely fantastic! He listened, advised, and gave me space to check the cars out. He was very knowledgeable looking after me and helping me into the perfect car.

Sarah

Rhys and his team at Black & White Motor Company are the real deal. They are courteous, knowledgeable and operate with true integrity. Of all the car dealerships I have visited these guys stand out head and shoulders above the rest.

Alex

Would just like to say I had a great vehicle buying experience with Black and White. Paul was very forthcoming with information about the vehicle I bought. Jo, the Finance manager was so easy to deal with. And at no time did it feel confrontational doing the numbers. Overall, the best vehicle buying experience I have ever had.

Andy

Rhys, The ability to peruse several photos of the vehicle I was interested in before travelling into Christchurch certainly helped in my selection. The fact I never opened a door while looking at the vehicle was due to your assuring manner in the answer to my questions, as opposed to those who try to push a sale at all costs…….. Thank you for your help in my purchase, very friendly and helpful, nothing was a problem…

Wayne

We are very happy with the Outlander. Obviously, we had looked around done some research and there were other choices we could have made.

However, what stood out in the end was the initial contact my daughter had with Paul on my behalf. He was friendly easy to talk to and willing to see how we could put together a deal that would fall within our budget. That mattered to us given my limitations at the time. When we came through, we also appreciated the professional friendly service you showed us and when it came to the numbers, meeting us part way to fall close to our budget. That mattered to us too. The bottom line was it wasn’t close I may have gone elsewhere or waited. So good on you and your team keep up the personal interest, with a willingness to match the needs of potential clients.

Jack

My experience buying my car with B&W was as smooth and easy as it gets. Both Paul and Harlen were super friendly and helpful. Got every question I had answered promptly. I bought and paid for the car without ever seeing it. The car was in excellent condition, matched exactly the add on trade-me, perfectly clean and so far, I had no issues with it. Don’t expect too either. So, great work from you and your team. Keep it up. When the time comes to replace the Volvo, you will be my first option.

Gabriel

Thought I would give you a quick reply after driving my new car for the last few weeks, including a recent return trip to Queenstown. We are very happy with the car and the ease of dealing with your company. Paul was fantastic to deal with and I would definitely recommend him and your business. Thank you.

Sian

Thank you for your email following up on my recent purchase of the Toyota Camry. The process was so smooth and easy which made the purchase fantastic. Buying cars is not something I do often, and your team were so friendly, found out what my needs were and did their best to meet them. The trade in process was super easy and efficient. With the finance again a very easy process with various options to suit our budget. We did choose the after care and paint protection options which in my opinion are well worth the extra money. Having cleaned the care since purchase wow so easy and comes out looking fantastic. I have also done the android audio upgrade via Toyota so for me future proofing the car for many years. Thank you so much and best wishes.

Brent

Thanks for the email, Sharon is very happy with her new car and thank you to your team for the great service.

Deane

Hi Rhys, I had a fantastic experience with Black and White. Accommodating and easy to deal with. We love our new vehicle and thank you so much for everything. Thanks.

Natasha

Awesome guys to deal with and service from the sales staff to the groomer dropping my new car off to me was five stars. Will be a repeat customer that’s for sure thank you guys.

Steve

Good morning, Rhys, I think you have got all your goals spot on. Jo made the purchase so so easy. My car is perfect. If I am in the market for another vehicle, I will be giving Black & White motor company a call. I will also be telling all my friends about how good your staff are and how easy they made my huge purchase. Once again thank you and please pass on my thanks to all your staff. JOB WELL DONE.

John

Everything was fantastic about buying my Toyota RAV, from my first enquiry about it via email and what I could get from the trade in of my car, working out finance, delivery and even when I rang Harlen (not sure how to spell his name) in the evening after purchasing it while on a weekend away when I couldn’t start it! I liked that at no part did I feel like I was dealing with pushy salesmen or made to feel like someone too poor to be bothered with. I highly recommend your business; your staff and product are exceptional.

Deby

Hi Rhys, thanks very much for your input to the trade/purchase of the Ranger. Service was great, happy with the extras you arranged pre the swap and really happy with the purchase. We were sad to see our truck go, it was really good for us. I’m sure it will look great by the time your team groom the vehicle. Thanks again, appreciate the car cleaning kit, and won’t hesitate to recommend you and your team to acquaintances.

Greg

Friendly staff. The little blue Focus is fantastic. You guys went above and beyond.

Bridie

We love the car and we’re very happy with the service provided due to the circumstances with the cyclone hitting us at the same time. The salesman was great and yourself being friendly, open and honest we felt comfortable buying from you even though we were an island apart. Thank you and we will be buying our next car from you which will be soon.

Regan

Paul was great to deal with. I purchased the vehicle without a test drive as it was having some work done. When I picked it up, I had a couple of small issues. Paul said bring it back and we will sort it out.

The car is with you while I was away, to get sorted which is much appreciated. I will recommend your company to any friends looking for a vehicle.

Steve

I am beyond happy with my new vehicle, and really want to give a shout out to Paul for coming all the way out to Rangiora so I could do a test drive and have my husband with me – he works away in the weekend, and I work partially from home. I think you were short staffed as well so it was very much appreciated. A big thanks to Jo as well for making all the paperwork and finance so easy – better rate than the bank’s… We will definitely be coming back – first time customer but you would be at the top of the list for our next vehicle.

Janine

Hi Rhys, from a customer point of view I thought that the service and professionalism was very good. Communication was also prompt. I thought you had an easy way about you that made the process relaxed and nothing was a problem, which is reassuring from a prospective customer.

Brendan

I’m absolutely thrilled with my purchase – exactly as described on your website. It is in superb condition, beautifully valeted for its journey north. The entire process from pre-purchase to having the car delivered to New Plymouth was seamless. Great communication every step of the way. We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending B&W to any potential purchaser.

Dee

Highly recommend Black & White Motors. Team was truly helpful and a special shout-out to Paul. Thank you for making this purchase a stress-free experience and for making our trip from Nelson so worthwhile. Love our new car.

Cheryl

Rhys, thank you for this follow-up email on our car purchase from Black and White. A very personal touch and much appreciated. My wife Ange and I experienced a very quick and efficient transaction from your team so much so that as we drove away from your yard Ange commented how easy it all seemed and suggested we should work through your company again in the future.

I think your pre-sale check and service of the vehicle is commendable and was a bonus to us and we felt comfortable in hopping in the car and driving 7+ hours back to Golden Bay knowing it had been checked over and serviced. Ange also remarked how comfortable she was in dealing with Harlen. A pleasant experience all round for us and again thank you for the follow up.

Greg

Thank you so much for the great service, help and support. I was very happy and will let other people know how great your support with buying my new car was. Thank you.

Nikki

My daughter recently purchased her first car from B&W Motors in Christchurch. We live just outside of Hamilton and cannot fault the level of customer service from initial inquiry, to purchase and pick up. The staff team were amazing with all our queries answered and the car well checked and prepared for sale. The car itself made our 1000 km return trip home a pleasure.

Greg & Helen

Black & White Motor Company – excellent service and follow up… impressive!!!

Pete

Thanks for the email, picked up the VW GTI a few days back and am loving it! Huge thumbs up for Harlen — he made it a very easy and quick process whilst in Australia. Thanks again team.

Harrison

Firstly, thank you for that email. And I’d also like to thank you for the process being so easy. You are right; buying a new car can be scary, especially when its cost is so great. But your team at Black and White really made me feel comfortable and safe, they answered all the questions I had perfectly leaving nothing in the dark and it’s really good to have that peace of mind when committing to something like this.

I am absolutely blown away with the car, I think it’s great, and so comfortable to drive. I’ve had comments and compliments already about how good a condition the bodywork is for an import, and I just love the bumper — really brings the car together.

You have a great team there Rhys, be sure to keep up the good work.

Angus

I must accept that this was certainly my best car purchasing experience. Rhys Pocklington was patient enough to not only educate us about the pros and cons of each car, he was also very helpful in answering every question we had. These days, car salesmen are merely concerned with making money but Rhys and Harry deliver on their promise of offering incredible service. We will definitely be coming back over the years thanks to our pleasant experience!

Vishal V

Very happy with car. Harry was exceptional throughout process.

Paul

Hi Rhys, It was an easy and excellent buying experience. Very friendly, and no hassle. Thank you.

Royson H

Bought my first EV from here, went very smoothly. Harry went the extra mile to tidy up some areas on the car for me. Appreciate it.

Thanks.

AW

Dear Black and White Auto team,

I have just purchased my fourth car from you and wanted to take a moment to thank you. As always, I received the service that has brought me to your yard three times in the past. I do not know how cars work, I just get in and hope they do — I have no idea what happens under the hood and am comfortable after all these years with the fact I am not a car guy. The team at B&W have learnt this over the years and take this into consideration when I am looking to upgrade my vehicles, and they speak slowly and answer my absurd questions with patience.

The finance team (Natalie) is also aware I am not great with numbers (I am smarter than this makes me sound!) and will take time to ensure I understand what is happening. I have been able to change my finance easily when required and this is always done quickly with (slowly spoken) explanations of how it works.

My point is that I will continue returning to B&W because I feel comfortable doing so. I am not overwhelmed with jargon and specs that mean nothing to me. The team have always worked with me to find exactly what I am looking for and my recent purchase was recommended as a possible fit for my needs — and they were right — a perfect fit for my family and budget.

Thanks Rhys, Harlen and Natalie for once again going above and beyond to find my perfect car match. I will see you when I am ready to upgrade again.

Kelly

We were very happy with the service we received when we recently purchased our car from your company. A problem that arose within a few days was addressed and repaired immediately. We would not hesitate to use your company again or to recommend you to others.

Alan and Marie
