New Driver Car Hire New Zealand<\/h2>\n

Finding new driver car hire in New Zealand can be difficult, with many companies requiring your license to be at least a year old. Up until now, the absolute minimum period with our suppliers was 12 months. Thankfully though we’ve now arranged a new partnership with our suppliers that reduces this to just\u00a0a single day.<\/em> So now as long as you have the physical photocard we can help you, even if you passed yesterday!<\/p>\n

Here is a quick pocket guide below for use when driving in New Zealand, useful for any inbound hirers that have only just passed.<\/p>\n
