Nissan Kicks in the UAE
I recently rented a car from TakeCars.com in Sharjah and was very pleased with my experience. The booking process was easy and convenient: I was able to select the model I wanted through the website and specify the date and time of the rental. I also ordered delivery of the car to the hotel through the website. At the appointed time it was brought without delay. The car was in excellent condition, clean and ready to go. I rented a Nissan Kicks and it handled the roads perfectly. I especially liked that the company provided all the necessary documents and insurance, which added confidence during the trip. Returning the vehicle went as smoothly as receiving it. There were no hidden fees, we arrived at the hotel at the appointed time and picked up the car. I was very satisfied with the services of TakeCars.com and will gladly use their services again. I recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable car rental!
Mini Cooper S Cabrio in the UAE
We were given a Dodge Challenger since Cooper was busy
Toyota Camry in the UAE
I booked a camry, but got really old and bad condition mithubishi. It was so old, I have never driven a car in such a bad condition.
Hyundai Accent in the UAE
in principle normal everything went well, but did not meet at the airport in the terminal, drove an hour changed drivers phone in I thought I would not get the car, then the delivery was carried out in an underground parking lot in the dark, well videotaped, did not note the scratch and wanted to hang it on me, but I showed the video and all questions dropped, the only thing I took without a deposit, but now sent payment of saliki
Nissan Sunny in the UAE
The company requested scans of passport and driver's license on the day before the car was delivered, so on the day of pickup no additional documents had to be filled out. Due to the delay at the airport I was not in time to receive the car, I contacted the company via WhatsApp, they responded promptly and rescheduled the time of delivery to a later date. I received the car in the hotel, the representative contacted me before arrival and clarified the address. The only disadvantage - the representative did not have change when paying in cash, I had to run to find change. The car though of 2023 year of manufacture, but a little tired (body and interior), otherwise - no complaints, quite a decent condition, for the segment "economy" - just right. An undoubted plus - the presence of Android Auto in the car, without problems we managed to connect the phone for navigation. In previous trips I also rented Nissan Sunny, so I didn't have to get used to it. I drove carefully, avoided saliks, so at the end of the lease I did not pay anything extra. The return process is as simple as possible, I left the car keys at the hotel reception and that's all. Takecars as an aggregator deserves all praise because of the simple and transparent process of registration of rent and acceptance of prepayment from Russian cards. Good luck to you!
