    I have found this car to be excellent. Its not the sort of car you simply get into to drive without thinking about it. Its the type of car that demands your interest - but is rewarding all the same.

    The main reason I chose the i3 was that I really wanted an EV but wanted something more sporty and stylish than a Leaf. These isn't a lot of other choice at the moment. Having said that, I am really happy with it so far.

    Car is very stylish and gets great comments. It is VERY quick off the mark, but that chews up your range and your tyres! Fun to drive, and the range Extender is a must for this model on NZ open roads. Be aware that the stated range on the car's display is 'best achievable' and can only be achieved in ideal economical around town driving. Out of town NZ road conditions and colder weather seriously deplete the range. Be aware of the rare tyre size, making replacement tyres extremely expensive. Also be aware that using the BMW tyre goo (the only 'spare' you get with this car) will render the tyre useless once taken to a dealer, and using it will cost you a replacement tyre, and they're not cheap, as mentioned. There are other options that will not destroy the tyres after-puncture-life. Be aware that the Adaptive Cruise Control will cut out often in certain conditions. Do check out the many forums and FB pages to get good info on the pitfalls.

Nick Purvis
Sales Manager

The family at Chevron Quality Cars would like to welcome back Nick Purvis to our sales team. Nick has been involved in the motor industry from a youngster with his family business Smithburn Motors where he learnt from one of our import industry pioneers his father Jeff Purvis.

Before he had his licence he was changing the yard round and has earned his name as the "One man yard change" His first memory was his father allowing him to drive his Mother’s car into the show room. One rule was no touching the accelerator pedal so he had to turn the wheel to get the power steer to generate some slow forward movement.

This installed passion and has seen Nick owning a countless number of vehicles over the years.

He currently has a Nissan R34 GTR and a Mazda Rx7 FD ( First Rotary ) in his collection after emotionally parting with a Subaru WRX and Mitsubishi Evo 6.5.

Alongside his passion for cars, Nick certainly knows food and the best places to go and during Covid he became quite the gamer with new found boredom buster playing Call of Duty.

Nick is a great asset to the team and is one of the most genuine and nicest chaps you will meet. No question is ever too small and no job to big.

If you are looking for a vehicle of any sort and price range don’t hesitate in giving Nick a call for some genuine and helpful advice.

James Herriott
Yard Executive

James joins the team at Chevron in 2022 as our yard hand. He graduated University in 2017 with a bachelor of science in geology.

Despite this James' heart has all ways been in cars. He recalls a time in his childhood when his father would take him around the city to different car yards to see all the cars, he had picked out of the newspaper classifieds the day before. Beginning a lifelong obsession with anything on four wheels.

When James' thoughts aren't about cars you will often find him thinking about them in a much smaller scale. He is often adding to his ever-growing Hot Wheels collection much to his partners disappear. A collection he one day dreams about turning into full scale.

James enjoys much of his time off out attempting to regain control of his garden with the help of his cats Percy and George.
