Car Rental in Christchurch

Convertible rental in Christchurch

The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in New Zealand are: Renault Megane Cabriolet, Audi A5 Cabriolet and Ford Mustang Convertible.

At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Christchurch require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.

We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in New Zealand is quite high.

Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Christchurch and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.

In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.

When parking a cabriolet in Christchurch, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you an exciting journey with an open roof around New Zealand!

Enjoying sights of Christchurch in cabriolet
Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament is a no less impressive place of interest for all fans of architectural landmarks. This church is built in accordance with the unique project by Francis Petre. The architectural ensemble is made in best traditions of the Renaissance style and is often recognized as the most impressive and mesmerizing monument in this style in whole New Zealand. The first church on the site of the modern cathedral appeared yet in 1864. An extensive restoration started in 1901, under the guidance of outstanding architect Francis Petre. The opening of the ready cathedral took place four years later. Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament was also partially damaged by the devastating earthquake in 2011. Despite the fact that the church has been in the condition that is far from ideal during last several years, it is still one of the most famous and popular architecture landmarks in New Zealand.

From an architectural point of view, there are other wonderful landmarks in the city, such as Christchurch City Hall . Initially, this building was made of wood, but during an extensive restoration, it was decided to add the stone façade. The city hall is located not far from the cathedral, so it is an essential part of all excursions in Christchurch. Nearby, on picturesque Latimer Square , you will find another place of interest - Christchurch Club , one of the most unusual and attractive buildings in the city. The club was built in 1861. More than a hundred years ago, the beautiful wooden building was a usual meeting place for local tycoons and farm owners.
