    Terms and Conditions

    • This car is provided as a temporary courtesy car at Grimmer Motors’ discretion while the customer’s vehicle is being serviced, repaired, or otherwise held. It is not a rental or hire service.

    • Drivers must be over 21 and provide a full NZ driver’s licence unless otherwise agreed. A photo of both sides of the licence will be taken.

    • The car may only be used within the Hamilton city area or within a 10 km radius from Grimmer Motors unless otherwise approved.

    • No smoking, eating, drinking, or pets are allowed. A $50 cleaning fee applies if the car is returned dirty, smells, or contains evidence of these.

    • The car must be returned on the agreed date, when notified the customer’s vehicle is ready, or immediately if requested. Recovery costs may be charged if not returned on time.

    • The customer must take reasonable care of the car, including locking it, securing keys, using a steering lock (if provided), and avoiding risky parking situations.

    • If keys are lost, stolen, damaged, or locked in the car, the customer is responsible for all associated costs.

    • The customer must not drive under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or impairing medication, and must not use a handheld phone while driving except as permitted by law.

    • All occupants must wear seatbelts and children must use legally compliant restraints.

    • The car must not be used recklessly, illegally, or antisocially (e.g., speeding, racing, burnouts).

    • The car must not be used for towing, pushing vehicles, heavy loads, driver training, motorsport, rideshare, deliveries, or commercial use without approval.

    • The car must not be driven on beaches, through floodwater, or off-road conditions that may cause damage.

    • The car must be returned with the same fuel level. Refuelling costs and related charges will apply if not. Incorrect fuel or battery issues are the customer’s responsibility.

    • All incidents (accidents, theft, damage, warning lights, breakdowns) must be reported immediately. No repairs or towing without approval unless required for safety.

    • The customer is responsible for all fines, tickets, tolls, or penalties incurred while using the car.

    • Only the signed customer may drive the car. The customer remains liable even if someone else drives it.

    • Liability for damage or loss is limited to the lesser of insurance excess ($1500 if over 25, $2000 if 21–25) or actual repair/replacement cost.

    • Full liability applies for serious breaches (e.g., unauthorised driver, intoxication, illegal use, misuse, failure to report issues, incorrect fuel, etc.).

    • The car must be returned with all keys, accessories, and items in similar condition (fair wear and tear excepted).

    • Magnetic courtesy car signs must not be removed, damaged, or tampered with.

    • Providing false or misleading information or failing to disclose licence issues is a serious breach.

    • Overdue payments may incur recovery costs, legal fees, and 18% annual interest (compounded monthly).

    • If any term is unenforceable, the remaining terms still apply.
