About Us
We are a privately owned used vehicle dealership based in Wellington for the last 25 years. We have prospered as a business for this long by following a simple philosophy; we offer quality vehicles at fair prices and back this up with exceptional service.
This attention to customer satisfaction has seen us win numerous MTA best used dealership awards and has resulted in one in every two cars sold by us being to a repeat or referral customer.
With three dealerships in Lower Hutt Wellington, one being dedicated to Electric and Hybrid vehicles, one to traditional Petrol and Diesel vehicles and one to Lower Price and Trade-In vehicles we are one of the largest Independent dealers in the lower North Island. If the quality of your vehicle is important to you then you will not be disappointed.
With over 300 vehicles for sale at any given time we have something to suit all needs. All our vehicles come with the MTA 100 day guarantee – covering all labour, mechanical and electrical items so you can buy with complete peace of mind. We also offer extended warranties on all our vehicles, including an exclusive Electric/Hybrid battery warranty
With Finance available on site and trade-ins welcome we try and make your buying experience as easy and enjoyable as possible.
While we work hard, we also like to have fun; you will experience this when you come into our dealerships. We have created a family friendly environment with a children’s play area to keep the little ones entertained, and a pool table for the adults.
At Coventry Cars there is no pressure to buy, everyone is willing to help and the Coventry Cars team will make sure your buying experience is an enjoyable one.
So whether it's to buy a car, to get some advice, or just to drink our great coffee do come in and see us and experience what makes us different from the rest.
Bruce Stewart - Owner
I started Coventry cars in 1993 and was selling a lot of Jaguars and other exotic European cars and this is where the name Coventry came from.
Coventry Cars has now been involved in the retail motor industry for over 25 years and I am very proud of what we have achieved as a business in this time. We have sold over 20,000 vehicles and have thousands of loyal customers with over half of our 100 sales a month being to repeat or referred customers.
We have built our brand on quality and a fair deal and I firmly believe that quality is the most important factor in being a successful dealership long term.
In 2017 we opened Wellington’s largest and first dedicated EV and Hybrid car center, my intention was to provide the best selection possible and back this up with exceptional service and I am very proud of what we have achieved so far.
We are a 7 day a week business but are also a family orientated dealership and this shows in our staff retention, we believe that family comes first and we work around each other’s family commitments as best as we can.
I am married to Donna and we have three beautiful and cheeky children and when I am not at work spend most of my time at Rugby, Hockey, Cricket and Netball supporting and of course offering great advice to my children (which it’s fair to say isn’t always welcome). I thoroughly enjoy my family and see this as my calling in life.
So whether you are a new or repeat customer I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to our car buying experience and sincerely hope that you enjoy the process and are treated in the professional manner that Coventry Cars is known for and has been founded on.
