Renault Clio 5 in Turkey

We were given a Citroen C4 as a replacement car, which was quite an unexpected event for us! The car is both higher in class and more spacious! We were two adults and two children, and the trip from the airport to the resort meant a 4 hour drive! So thank you very much for this surprise! The car is fresh, with low mileage. Very sharp and with optimal gasoline consumption. We were very comfortable! Separately I would like to say that there were no problems with communication with the Turkish side. There was a small misunderstanding at the very beginning of our lease, namely, that all the calculations we corresponded in US dollars, and at the time of signing the documents dollars turned into Euros, which significantly increased the cost of rent in terms of Russian rubles! We had to show the correspondence and prove that the original amount was voiced in USD. We agreed on this and there were no more problems! We will continue to use your services and recommend you to our friends!

Audi A4 in Turkey

everything went fine, except they gave me a different car. A Peugeot instead of an Audi, a dubious substitution

Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey

Rented a Renault Megane for 4 days in Turkey in October 2023 through TakeCars.com The procedure of choosing and ordering a car is simple and clear. The manager was always on call in vatsap, ready to help and answer questions We gave a welcome discount of 3% on the first order by promo code The initial payment of 15% paid in rubles from the Russian card. The rest in cash currency upon receipt of the car. The car was fresh (July 2022gv) with low mileage. Technical inspection was passed the day before the lease, the marks in the passport were present. Spare tire and tools were available. The car on the road did not fail. The procedure of registration of the car took about an hour in the office of the rental company (taking into account the cleaning of the interior of the car). We were given tea and coffee, souvenirs. Impressions from ordering, renting and traveling are the best!

Hyundai Bayon in Turkey

Everything went just fine. Excellent service. - Convenient drop off (I got the car near the airport) - very convenient drop-off (the car was picked up just at the arrival line). If you can keep it, it's a competitive advantage: not only to hand over, but also to hand over cars - very convenient. Good luck and development of your service!

Opel Corsa in Turkey

Everything went perfectly! The car is like new, clean, without any problems. The deposit as announced 200 bucks, returned immediately after checking the car on return. Everything was processed quickly and at the beginning and at the return. Paid for toll roads in the office, deducted the cost of the bridge on the fact of presenting a check. All in all, everything went smoothly, thank you!

Dacia Sandero Stepway in Turkey

I waited for almost 2 hours in the center of Istanbul to hand over my car, while driving around the city, as there is no parking there in principle. At the same time, as agreed 2 hours before arrival, I informed about the time and place of the meeting.
