Continental Motorrad has opened a dedicated BMW motorcycle dealership in Kaiwharawhara, Wellington. Five months after the launch of Continental Motorrad in Auckland, a second Continental BMW hub selling cars and motorbikes as well as Wellington Mini Garage has been created at the Continental Cars BMW and Wellington Mini Garage site just north of Wellington’s city centre.

100 per cent dedicated to the BMW Motorrad brand, the region’s motorcycling community can expect the new dealership to live up to the tagline Make Life a Ride. The dealership will stock a full range of BMW motorcycles, parts, accessories, and apparel while also offering specialist sales and aftersales service.

“It’s great that there’s now a place in Wellington where all things BMW come together as one,” said Dealership Manager, Ian Shiner. “Our team is passionate about the brand and committed to sharing their enthusiasm for making life a ride. They live, eat, breathe, and dream motorbikes.”

The team are keen for the local motorcycling community to drop in and see what Continental

Motorrad offers where, according to Ian, the team will have a warm welcome waiting.

The change for BMW in Wellington has come due to BMW motorcycles now being distributed in NZ by the same team who distribute the cars, with Continental Motorrad and distributor BMW Motorrad New Zealand now both part of the Sime Darby Motors NZ. The Sime Darby group sells, services, and supports a wide range of top automotive brands, operating across the retail and commercial market.

The Sime Darby Motors NZ Retail portfolio which now includes bikes, also features Continental Cars (Audi, Volkswagen, Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, MINI, and BMW Motorrad), Continental Cars Tyre Centre, Continental Cars Performance Centre, and FASST Used.

The group’s Commercial division is made up of Volvo, UD, Mack, and Hino Trucks, TWL and Transpecs trailer parts and solutions, Engineering and Plant Services, Hyster forklifts, and Palfinger cranes.
