At Megatyre, we have resisted involvement with prestige Euro tyre brands which always seemed over priced, low volume and of little relevance. But Continental pricing in New Zealand is now much more realistic and they have given Megatyre a great deal, meaning we can offer this famed German brand at sensible prices. Another consideration is the increasing affluence of the Browns Bay market and the ongoing upgrading of our local car fleet. Suddenly there are a lot of prestige cars around here for which Continental tyres are an obvious choice.
Megatyre is now an agent for the entire range of Continental tyres and we are starting to get very useful sales which so far have mostly been for BMW, Volkswagen, Mini, Mercedes and Audi vehicles.
Until recently, Continental only had a small presence in New Zealand. They are now on their third distributor in recent years and obviously its a case of “third time lucky”. The new distributor has no retail conflict, has great depth of stock and sales are up by hundreds of percent. Above all, they are telling a great story and generating strong interest in Continental tyres.
Now available from Megatyre, Browns Bay.
