Car rental reviews in Istanbul
Opel Corsa in Turkey
Everything went great, thank you!
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!
Renault Clio 5 in Turkey
Pros: 1) The car is the one I chose. 2) It was delivered on time. 3) Checkout took little time. 4) Traveled all the way without incident. Cons: 1) Dirty windshield from inside, which made driving at night difficult. 2) Empty tank initially. 3) Employee didn't have change from a $300 bill even though I texted in advance. 4) Left rear tire was flat a third of the way down . 5) Right rear right strut is knocking. 6) Pads in calipers squeak. 7) The steering wheel is squeaky. 8) Dirty seats.
Hyundai i20 in Turkey
Everything went great 👌 . I was met at the airport by your employee and quickly handed over the auto. The return trip was fine too. Thank you for the good service. Really liked the car!
Citroen Berlingo in Turkey
everything was at the highest level, the only thing I'm waiting for is a $200 deposit. But in general, everything is positive, I will still use your company
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
The car I got was really good, no problem for the whole journey and the vendor whom I rented the car from was very helpful as well.
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
We were not very satisfied. We waited for a car for about 1.5 hours. We were given a car that was not what we had ordered, it was killed, the car shook at speeds of over 100 km.
Fiat Fiorino in Turkey
Everything went well, there were no problems. except that at first we thought that we would have to pay the full amount in rubles, but the lack of this option was not a problem.
Peugeot 301 in Turkey
it wasn't a Peugeot, it was a Fiat. And the fact that the trunk of the car did not open created a lot of problems for us!
Peugeot 508 in Turkey
Everything went well, they provided a Mercedes c200d instead of a Peugeot, but we were fine with that. Thank you! The only thing is that the company forgot to put a child seat in the car and I had to go to the other end of Istanbul to get it. No one offered to bring it or somehow deliver it, want I paid money for it
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
Everything was on time and according to the terms agreed upon.
Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey
It didn't go well with my lease! They charged me a lot of extra money before I turned the car in. For the car wash was one. I drove on toll roads, then I was shown a receipt of payment, I agreed to it. Next, they said that most likely you were somewhere else, and that the system displays it after 3 days. and that because these charges are not yet in the system, you have to pay double the price. This is their way of insuring that they don't have new accruals coming to them in a couple of days. My arguments and timing that in the system find all the payment points that I crossed they did not take!
Opel Corsa in Turkey
Everything went fine. If not the other model opel crossland was given away. Everything else was fine.
