Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey

In general, everything was standard, except for one nuance, but very important for me. When I choose a car, I always look at the year of manufacture and try to take a fresh car, as a new car is always nicer to drive than an old one. And the cost of renting a new car is usually higher than used cars. So I rented a car of 2024 year of release, as it was stated on the website of the rental company, and received a car of 2019 year of release with a mileage of 165 thousand kilometers. The interior was heavily smoked and the driver's seat was burned with cigarettes. I spend a lot of time in the car as I travel around the area and so the condition of the car is important to me! Please do not deceive your customers or give correct information about the car! On the site takecars.com there were cars of the same class but older by year of manufacture and these offers were cheaper, and I chose your company because the year of manufacture of the car was specified 2024, and I received a car of completely different quality.

Ford Courier in Turkey

Everything went perfectly, the car is completely as we wanted in good condition. Delivery and acceptance of the car went very well and quickly! Price-quality - super! The only thing was inconvenient that the issuance manager spoke only Turkish, I had to work a little with the dictionary, and the rest was fine.

Audi A4 in Turkey

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

Ford Focus in Turkey

Well, in general, the car was not the one that was booked, they gave Hyundai accent instead of Ford focus, for some reason it seems to me that it is of a lower class than the focus, if I knew that they would replace it, I would not have booked it, but because I had to leave already , I had to take an accent, but everything is fine! The tires were from different manufacturers and with different patterns on the same axle at the back, not entirely critical of course, we drove normally, but still, this is not up to standard

Skoda Scala in Turkey

Everything went well. We received the car clean and in the time specified in the voucher. The only disadvantage was that the voucher stated that the car had a diesel engine, but in fact it was a gasoline engine. We found out about it only at the gas station, when the gas station attendant showed us that the car was gasoline-powered according to the documents.

Renault Clio 5 in Turkey

The rental was great, always in touch. I received the car at Istanbul airport in 5 minutes without any problems, and gave it back there in 5 minutes as well. The only nuance I got a Renault Clio 4 generation (also 1.5 diesel), instead of Renault Clio 5 generation, but in general the terms of the lease allows such a change. Despite the fact that the Renault was not the first freshness (2019 year of release) absolutely no problems have not arisen, drove more than 800 km to the Aegean Sea and back , consumption of about 5 liters. Definitely recommend and will use the rental service again in the future. (No deposit, full insurance and unlimited mileage is great). Thank you :)

Renault Clio 5 in Turkey

The rental experience turned out to be successful. I got a Hyundai i20 instead of a Renault Clio 5, but I was not disappointed. The acceptance and delivery procedures were prompt and did not cause any complaints. The car was in good technical condition and I was satisfied with its comfort. THANK YOU!

The car is good, picked it up from us at the airport on time, although there was an early departure, for this thank you very much. When we arrived there was a slight delay, the car was not there, I called all the numbers, a little hindered by the language barrier. But everything was solved, thanks to your staff. The service 5, the car 5 If we will be in Turkey again, we will definitely come to you обратимся👍🏻.

Hyundai Bayon in Turkey

The price was cheaper than in other places. There were no problems during the delivery and handing over of the car. There was one technical problem with a flat tire, but it was solved safely.
