Abarth 695 2024

Great value for a great car. 10 min delay in completing the pickup process, but it happens. Overall huge bang for buck. Car is good fun to drive through the twisting roads of the Yarra valley. The Italians were bent on making an absurdly fun car and they succeeded.

Abarth 595C 2021

Jay’s a proper car enthusiast and an absolute treat to deal with. Pickup and drop-off were super easy, no fuss at all. He’s got a great little collection of cars, and Abarth 500 is definitely the coolest one in the lot. If you’ve still got a manual licence, do yourself a favour and drive this while you still can. It sounds and drives like a true pocket rocket – proper fun. Would 100% rent again.

Abarth 695 2024

The Abarth was a lot of fun. As fun as cars with double the power and price Highly recommend. Plenty of power, nimble handling, a slick, shifting manual and a surprisingly aggressive exhaust sound given its quirky charming looks, Aminda was a perfect host, very helpful, prompt communications, streamlined process. Thanks!
