Drive your dream with Bowater Hyundai

Hyundai have a policy that when you get your car serviced through their dealer network customers need to also gain a sense of reward. An incentive to keep up a healthy service schedule.

Every week they give away $500 nationally to one lucky service customer that has been in, had a service and gone online to fill out a short customer experience questionnaire on the vehicle service they have just had.

Last week local Bowater Hyundai customers Dawn & Ian Dymond came in to collect their $500 cheque. Dawn's name got drawn the previous week as the winner of cash, and as planning for a month long Caribbean Cruise with her two grown daughters was well underway, the cheque has come at a very welcome time.

It is always great to be able to give our loyal customers incentive gifts like this one - it is always so warmly received, and it is so nice to know that Nelson and Tasman gets so well represented when it comes to winning these national prizes.
Just a few months ago Marlborough Sounds locals David & Sarah Lightfoot also won with Bowater Hyundai (click here) as a part of the Santa Fe Summer Escape promotion.

Dawn and Ian had some very kind words to say about Peter Cantrick and his Parts & Service team at Bowater Hyundai.

Trailer backing champion? Better than this Aucklander?

backing the Santa Fe

Apparently some Aucklander's are not very good at backing.
Or so the image suggests.That poor tree. And since when is it ok to park a trailer on the footpath, especially when it is right next to a park bench?????

It might also be a bit of a fib to get some conversation going.

You would be right in guessing that this is the brand new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe.
It hasn't officially been released yet, so we have to use images sent to us by Hyundai. This is a lovely image of the new Santa Fe on Auckland's iconic waterfront infront of Rangitoto Island.
It originally didn't come with the picture of the trailer, we just photoshopped that in. Unfortunately to get it looking right, the trailer has ended up parked all crazy, but it is a nice segway.

We think we are pretty good at backing trailers here in Nelson / Tasman. It is that kind of lifestyle region. A trailer expands your options so much, and also helps you get a whole lot more work done. So many of us have our own trailers, and everywhere you go on holiday people are carting their gear, bikes, kids bikes, BBQ's and firewood around.

To make a point we decided that it would be a great idea to hold a trailer backing competition. Mitre 10 Mega have kindly loaned us the use of their trailers and their carpark on Saturday 20th April for the afternoon from 1-3pm. We think we can find the Trailer Backing Champion of the world right here, and that champion will get a lovely dinner for two at 623.

The rules? Not quite sure yet. Will the main prize go to the fastest? The most precise? Or the best dressed? Not to worry we will have plenty of other spot prizes on the day to keep everyone happy.

Gather in the kids, and join the 2013 Santa Fe Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday 23rd March.

After a huge amount of hype, and internet chatter, the all new generation 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe has landed in the country.

It is so new that we have had to use a photo taken in Auckland!

To celebrate we have decided to do an exciting Easter Egg Hunt and partnered with some great local businesses to create a fun family day with massive Easter Egg prizes, and the chance for Mum and Dad to have a good look around the all new 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe.

Dream holiday awaits local family courtesy of Hyundai and the Santa Fe

This summer Hyundai have been all about the holiday road trip experience.

They have been running a nationwide campaign (click here) to get people excited about summer trips to our top summertime destinations, featuring such iconic images as the one below, of our very own Abel Tasman National Park.There were 6 family holidays worth $2,500 up for grabs, along with a main prize of $10,000.

Living in the top of the south, in one of New Zealand's favourite summer holiday destination, it is easy to get a little complacent about competitions like this one.
Afterall, we do live right amongst it, surrounded by the majesty of the Marlborough Sounds on one side, the Southern Alps behind us, and the glorious golden beaches of Abel Tasman to the West.

However, as Marlborough Sounds locals David and Sarah Lightfoot discovered, you have to be in to win!
