Absolutely fantastic.
See the end for a list of features, pros and cons.
It's a well driven car at roughly 340,000km but had zero issue the entire trip.
When not thinking about fuel economy it uses 7L/100km and that's going over the mountains, when prioritising fuel economy we got it down to 5.2L/100km turning what would be a $400 trip into only $270 of fuel.
The car was presented to us absolutely spotless inside and clean outside with a couple scrapes on the outside that don't affect anything (who cares, we spend the whole trip inside anyway).
The car does make a slight knocking sound from time to time whilst in park, but it doesn't affect anything (and we drove over 2,000km in a few days so would have noticed something if it was anything major.. the owner assures us it's only in park and has been checked and is safe.
The owner also worked with my extrodinarily poor planning and allowed me to make 2 minor adjustments last minute at no cost which saved our a** so much, if course they were small adjustments.
This was by far the best car rental experience I have had in my 7 years of renting cars, I haven't rented in a few years since working FIFO and was honestly worried I was going to have a poor experience but this was certainly a great experience.
I will most certainly be renting from this person again when I need a car for a long trip, it was just simply simple, the car was great, fuel efficiency on this particular car was great, boot room was great, etc.
Features/pros
- Wagon, heaps of room, seats fold down to completely flat, we were able to comfortably sleep in the back during a rest stop.
- great fuel economy. 7L/100 standard, able to get down to 5.2L/100km when trying to keep it low. (1050km range to a tank)
- Bluetooth, decent sound system, we cranked it up and blasted music the whole way, clear enough and loud enough for audiobooks and podcasts too.
- VERY comfortable long distance. We drove 8 hours straight with only 2 15 minute toilet breaks and then done the same on return.
- spotless interior
- easy to deal with owner
Cons
- lights are kinda dim but not as bad as other reviews state,, just make sure the headlight level adjustment is set to the high position and it's fine, it was set to low by the last person so no wonder it was hard to see.
- clanking noise in park, but it has zero effect on the car, we prove that over a 2100km drive.
- srape on left side of vehicle. (No effect on anything.
So yeah, not really a cons list
There are more pros but my phone is about to die. Just thought I'd say the stuff I wish all reviews had

Excellent car, great communication by Stanley. Overall oustanding experience.
This car is showing its age but that shouldn’t put you off! Highly recommend.
Cameron •
Host was great, good communication and fast response. Pick up and drop off very smooth with clear and easy instructions. The car itself was in pretty rough condition, making all kinds of noises particularly in idle and when cooling down after turning off. Price should be dropped for such a used car.
