This tailored finance solution lets you keep your options open at the end of your vehicle loan term and guarantees the price that you can sell it for.
You simply pick your vehicle, pick your loan term and put down your deposit. Then at the end of the term, you can either upgrade, retain or return your vehicle, and rest assured that your future is sorted. And with payments from as little as $99 per week, there has never been a better time to upgrade your vehicle. (finance terms and conditions apply).

Visit our stall at the Pauatahanui School Lamb & Calf Day on Saturday 7 November. Find out how you can improve the health of our waterways in the Pauatahanui area and inlet. Your efforts can boost biodiversity and reduce sediment levels in our streams through erosion control and planting. Staff will be available to offer advice and help find out if your property could get funding assistance.
Bring along a weed from your garden and swap it for a free native plant. And loads of fun for the kids! We will have a catchment model at our stall for kids to experiment and learn about sediment, streams, gullies and wetlands. See you soon.
