With summer just around the corner, now is a good time to consider some tips for those who will be driving around New Zealand or visiting our country for the first time, who may not be so sure about the ‘ins and outs’ of renting a vehicle here. The friendly and hard-working team at Hireace provide travel information on their website at http://www.bargainrentals.co.nz. Simply click on the Drive Safe logo on their home page to take you through to the comprehensive website detailing how to have a safe and enjoyable journey driving in New Zealand.

For those for whom it is their first time travelling in New Zealand and want to find the best attractions the country has to offer, Bargain Rentals, with eight national rental car branches throughout the country, and a team of knowledgeable and helpful staff, are there to ensure that their customers enjoy every minute of their holiday and their rental vehicle. For those looking for adrenalin on their next adventure, they’re in the right place. New Zealand offers everything from white water rafting, skydiving and much more, and people can also experience New Zealand's incredible scenery and Maori culture.

As the helpful team at Bargain Rentals are keen to point out, New Zealand has more than 15,900km of urban roads and 65,500km of rural roads to explore - and people often under estimate just how remote (and beautiful) New Zealand can get. For all closely populated areas, a general speed limit of 50km/h is fixed. Areas with a speed limit of 70km/h may be enforced and limited speed ways are established with a speed of 100km/h or 50km/h depending on conditions and circumstances.

For those hiring one of Bargain Rentals’ vehicles on an International Licence, they recommend people check out the New Zealand Road Code by visiting www.drivingtests.co.nz/roadcode/car  which offers a free road code quiz. This quiz is a great way to get up to speed with New Zealand road rules.

So their customers find their way on New Zealand roads, Bargain Rentals now hire out the NAVMAN GPS unit. Using satellites and pre-programmed maps of New Zealand, NAVMAN finds the location and shows people the fastest way to their destination. This unit can be hired with the vehicle rental for $10 extra a day.

Offering the convenience of eight rental car branches throughout New Zealand, Bargain Rentals are always there to help their customers, with current road conditions and planning the best route for their trip, so go to the website to book your Bargain Rental car today. They also want their customers to know they are only closed on Christmas Day and are open from 8.00am to 6.00pm on all other public holidays ready to assist with everyone’s hiring needs.
