As Z is a Kiwi company, and after the hiss and a roar of the rebranding and $5000 Z Donation as a part of that process, the customers expect them to give back to local neighbourhoods again; to support the things that matter locally and to make a positive contribution right across New Zealand.

One of the ways they have decided to do this is through a programme unique to Z called Good in the Hood.

In 2013, every Z station will be giving away $5,000 to neighbourhood groups and projects which help people who need it. They have 210 stations, so that’s over $1 million across New Zealand to do good in the hood. This of course also includes our very own Z Bowater Motors in Motueka.

Put a ring around Sunday 11th November on your calendar.
If you are into hunting or fishing, this is an event just for you!

Celebrity fisherman Matt Watson will be here, as well as some great deals on the best recreational vehicles you need to get you into the bush, to your favourite secret fishing spot, or getting your boat to the harbour!

It is going to be a great opportunity to come down to a free, centrally located event, see some great gear and the latest and greatest in both cars and boats.

Hyundai New Zealand have a great relationship with the country's bowling clubs. They have been actively supporting the national administrative arm with sponsored vehicles and the such.

Part of this arrangement is to continue the support onto a local level, and help out the local Nelson Bowling Clubs. For every Hyundai sold to a local bowling club member, new or used, Bowater Hyundai donates $250 to that club as a thank you.

Recently Daryl Pritchard of Bowater Hyundai had the pleasur of handing John Orbell of Ngawhatu Bowling Club a cheque for $250.
