Bought a bonnet protector from here,real quick delivery, and I am really pleased with it
We used Jimny NZ on our recent trip around the south island. Easy to book, pick up and drop off. Grace and Adam were very responsive on emails. Would highly recommend.
Hired 2 door Jimny (N04) with rooftop tent + equipment for a two week South Island adventure in 2025. Fantastic little car and no dramas getting around and so easy to park! Did the full loop from CHCH to Lake Pukaki, Dunedin, Milford Sounds, Wanaka, Nelson, Kaikoura, and then back to CHCH. Tent, equipment, and Jimny all functional and clean. Adam and Grace were wonderful to interact with.
All I can say is we had a great experience with Jimny NZ. Collection and returning of the car was straight forward and super easy. Adam and Grace were prompt in their replies and helpful! The condition of the car was excellent and we had no problems driving all around south island.
Funny enough we got attached to the car after spending 12 days with it and got sad when it was time to return it. A jimny in Singapore costs $150k!! So getting a taste of it in NZ has been a dream come true!
Nevertheless, if you're travelling as a couple, I'd highly recommend renting out a jimny from Jimny NZ to explore south island!
We had the most fantastic experience with Jimny Rentals. Grace and Adam contacted us before picking up our Jimny with highly detailed information and kept us updated throughout and after the rental. Our Jimny was in perfect condition and was the best way to explore Queenstown and to go on roadtrips with. We would highly recommend renting a Jimny from Grace and Adam for your NZ trip!
