Catering to every style, taste and budget
Situated on the corner of Blenheim Rd and Clarence St, Christchurch, Ute Nation offers an ever-changing inventory of vehicles certain to cater to every style, taste and budget.
Established two years ago by Christchurch locals Darren Griffith, Yuri Van Toor and Dan Chima, the business specialises in modified utes, 4x4’s and SUV’s that are ready to take on any adventure and match any lifestyle whether you are a hard working farmer, tradie or weekend warrior.
“Utes continue to be the number one selling vehicle aross the country, so we throught there was an opportunity to do something focusing on just that market,” Darren says.
“What sets Ute Nation apart, however, is our commitment to stocking vehicles with that special x-factor.
“We’ve got a really wide range and most vehicles on our yard are not factory standard; they are modified in some way, whether it’s wheels, roof racks, nudge bars or snorkels; there’s a ute that will suit everyone.”
Ute Nation also has its own workshop facility, a particularly helpful addition for customers who are after something specific, such as a Hilux with a canopy, for example, or a particular type of wheels and tyres,” Darren says.
“We can either seamlessly supply and install the accessories onto an existing vehicle in-house, or we can source a specific vehicle for them through our established contacts.”
The Ute Nation team is passionate about helping people find the perfect vehicle to suit their needs and lifestyle.
“We enjoy what we do and dealing with the people that come into our yard. We have such a broad range of vehicles, which means they don’t have to go to four or five different yards. That’s our strength.
“If you are looking to sell your vehicle, we are here to help streamline the process through direct purchase, trading in your old ute or selling on behalf.
“We also offer nationwide delivery.”
