Chevrolet Captiva in Albania

The site itself is convenient, but does not contain complete information about the condition of the rented car. It starts for 10-15 minutes (either the battery is old or the spark plugs need to be cleaned). Hollowed steering rack. I have no complaints about the site. I was very disappointed with the condition of the car, and had trouble.

Toyota Rav4 in Albania

Everything was ok, the renter was fine, the car was in good condition. About two weeks after the rental the landlord informed me that the car had scratches on the bumper, when returning the car nothing was noticed, unfortunately two weeks after the return I could not confirm anything, don't know what was going on with the car during this time.

Fiat Panda 4x4 in Albania

Panda was not 4x4 but a normal Panda with no AC and zero possibility to lock with the key. The local support replace the car after 3 days with a ford Fiesta. Unfortunately, after 24 hour we received an alert by the engine light. The support replace also this car with another Panda…. So, in my opinion those care was pure thrash but the local support was always kind and professional with us. best
