Citroen Strengthens Holiday Leasing Programme In New Zealand

Citroen DriveEurope, the holiday leasing programme that enables New Zealanders to have a car in Europe from as little as $32.00 a day all-inclusive, is strengthening its presence in New Zealand with the appointment of a travel specialist specifically to support the New Zealand market.

Anne Piot has been appointed as Citroen DriveEurope Manager for New Zealand with the role of developing the programme in New Zealand, providing support for travel agents providing the programme to clients, advertising and marketing Citroen DriveEurope in New Zealand and providing a single point of contact for DriveEurope clients.

A division of Ateco Automotive Pty Ltd, Citroen DriveEurope has established itself as the number one operator of the Citroen holiday leasing programme in the world, providing more holidaymakers and business people with cars in Europe than any other country in the scheme.

“The volume of clients using the programme in New Zealand now warrants a specialised person for the New Zealand market,” explains Miles Williams, General Manager of Citroen DriveEurope. “Anne Piot is ideal for this role because with her experience in the travel trade she can talk with real authority about the benefits of the Citroen DriveEurope programme, while being French and having travelled extensively in Europe her knowledge of how to have the perfect Europe holiday or the most effective European business trip is second to none, while her experience in the New Zealand holiday industry means she knows what Kiwis want from their holidays.”

Citroen DriveEurope offers people travelling to Europe and requiring a car a transport solution that offers major advantages over conventional car rental companies.

The car is booked and paid for in New Zealand in New Zealand dollars, eliminating currency transactions and last minute extras.

The price is all inclusive with no excess or additional insurance charges.
The car booked is the car provided and it is a brand new car, allowing clients to specify not just their specific model and variant but also options and specific drivetrain choices.

The car may be used right across Europe and not restricted to the country of collection.

The range of cars runs the full gamut of Citroen’s range from compact hatches to luxury cars via a range of spacious people movers and even includes a convertible, allowing perfect tailoring to individual customer needs.
The programme is designed for long touring holidays, ideal for visiting Kiwis doing the ‘big trip’ to Europe.

And, best of all, thanks the cost is significantly lower than conventional car rental.

“There is no doubt that Citroen DriveEurope is the most cost effective, efficient and easiest way to get behind the wheel of a brand new car in Europe,” says Miles Williams. “Anne’s role will be to communicate this in New Zealand and then ensure that our clients have a wonderful holiday in Europe!”
