Car rental rates in Blenheim / Waiharakeke

Set near the northern tip of New Zealand’s South Island, about a four-hour drive from Christchurch / Ōtautahi and just 25 minutes from Picton / Waitohi, Blenheim / Waiharakeke is the largest town in Marlborough and lies at the heart of New Zealand’s winemaking region — the famous Sauvignon Blanc got its start here, and while it’s still the region’s signature tipple, Marlborough has many other highly-rated wine varieties to choose from.

    Not totally happy. Request was for a Toyota Corolla or similar, as these are good cars. We went with East Coast Rentals. They said a Corolla was not available. We were given a Cherry (a red one). I walked around the ECR lot and found only one Corolla (a hybrid), amongst 80 cars. I don't think that they run petrol Corollas. Do not advertise them. VVV quoted 1 X$12 for an extra driver, while ECR added $60. We challenged them. ECR said that it might be on VVV website , but ECR have updated their website (?? isn't this automatic administrative?) ECR backed down immediately, which makes me think that it was opportunistic at 6.30 pm and we wanted to get going. The front line staff were great. After 12 days the Cherry went well, which means it was a lot better than the MG3 that we had as a Corolla or similar from another car rental company. We will be back, but a bit more wary and selective. Regards
