PW Cars Hyundai opens in Pukekohe

New Zealand’s fastest-growing mainstream car brand comes to Pukekohe this week when PW Cars hoists the Hyundai banner.

From today (Wednesday) PW Cars Hyundai becomes the newest in a network of dedicated, progressive Hyundai dealerships.

Dealer Principal Shaun Turton and his experienced team will be looking after the Pukekohe and Papakura regions with a full new car, service and parts dealership.

Shortly PW Cars Hyundai will be established as a standalone facility, complete with its own showroom and a dedicated team of sales, service and parts specialists.

In the meantime PW Hyundai will operate from the corner of Tobin and Seddon Streets, Pukekohe, with a temporary service centre located at 142 Manukau Road, Pukekohe.

“This is a unique opportunity to link with the brand which is really going places in New Zealand,” commented Mr. Turton.

“We know Kiwis are switched on to the quality, reliability and safety of Hyundai and we believe people in this region need their own dedicated service.”

Hyundai New Zealand welcomes the opportunity to spread further into the Pukekohe region.

“In 2007 Hyundai has continued the phenomenal growth of recent years, and we are confident that will continue,” explained the Executive Director of Hyundai Motors NZ, Philip Eustace.

“Dealers like Shaun and his team at PW Cars Hyundai are an important part of that and we look forward to the success we know they will have working with Hyundai owners in this area.”

So far this year Hyundai is the number one-selling diesel passenger vehicle brand.

And its iconic Santa Fe SUV is the number one individual selling diesel passenger vehicle in New Zealand.

With the eagerly-anticipated launch of the new Hyundai i30 5-door hatch at the end of 2007, and the new H1 van in early 2008, the rise and rise of Hyundai is set to continue.

Shaun Turton and the PW Cars Hyundai team are inviting locals to call in to their location on the corner of Tobin and Seddon Streets for a coffee, whether just passing by or taking a look at one of the new Hyundai models on display. For all sales enquiry please phone the sales team, Steve, Frank and Brian on 09 237 1190, and for all service and parts enquiry please phone Alana on 09 238 0700.
