This BMW 2 Series Convertible is literally the best car to rent if you plan on doing a little driving around the island. Rent it for the experience. It’s a sick looking car and it drives beautifully. Very comfortable for 2 people. Car was in perfect shape and gave me no problems. Very fun car to drive around the mountains. I was considering something a little more fuel efficient like a Prius, but this absolutely makes the trip a blast. You’re not going to spend much on gas regardless. Treat yourself, you’ll thank me later. Host was extremely accommodating. Never left me hanging for a second whenever we had to communicate. Will book again when I’m back.

I will give a 5 star because the host was nice how ever the address that’s posted on the app for pick up and drop off are not where you will be picking up and dropping off. No clear instructions language barrier may have been the issue. I had to pick up the car at the airport parking structure which was a bit difficult specially if you’re not familiar wasn’t hard after I figure it out but price and everything else was fine. Would be nice to know where you are dropping off and picking up car ahead of reservation

Wow. Just wow. If you’re planning to rent a car while in Oahu, this Ford Mustang convertible is absolutely the way to do it. There’s nothing like dropping the top and cruising along the island coastlines with the Hawaiian sun and ocean views around you. It honestly became one of the highlights of our trip. The car itself was spotless, fun to drive, and perfect for exploring the island. But what really made the experience exceptional was Gabriel. From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, professional, and accommodating. Pick-up and drop-off were seamless, and he went out of his way to make everything easy and stress-free for our family. If you’re considering renting a vehicle in Oahu, do yourself a favor and rent from Gabriel. You won’t regret it!

Jeep Wrangler 2026

Allow me to set the scene, I had a free rental through a popular rental car chain but decided to take the road less traveled and grab a vehicle on Turo for this trip. Besides coming to Hawaii, this was the best decision I’ve made. Burak was very kind and helpful through this experience and the ride was amazing! It was a decision of a bigger vehicle or convertible, but a convertible with three other adults just seemed cramped. Well this 2026 Jeep Wrangler gave us space and an automatic retracting roof. Push a button and it does the work. The speakers switched to overhead automatically so we could still vibe. Going through the canyon with that open to hit north shore was a perfect moment. I even extended by a day and Burak quickly approved. I would definitely rent another vehicle through him for future trips.

Maria was an amazing host! Her communication was awesome from start to finish super responsive, clear, and made the whole rental process smooth and stress free. The Jeep was absolutely perfect for our trip in Maui, especially for the beautiful Road to Hāna. It handled everything great and was the perfect vehicle for my family to comfortably enjoy all the stops and scenery along the way. Clean, reliable, and exactly what we needed for an unforgettable trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend renting from Maria if you’re visiting Maui!

Absolutely amazing experience renting this Mustang through Turo! The car was clean, well-maintained, and an absolute blast to drive. Everything about the rental process was smooth and easy from start to finish. The owner was incredibly friendly, responsive, and made the whole experience stress-free. You can tell they really care about both the vehicle and their guests. I would definitely rent from them again and highly recommend this Mustang to anyone looking for a fun and reliable ride!

This Jeep was absolutely awesome. Prince was super easy to work with. Drop off was easier than I could’ve ever imagined. He was at my hotel with keys in hand right when I needed it. He was waiting at the airport for pickup so we got to let our trip last as long as possible and didn’t need to pay for an uber. Way easier than a rental car company. Car was squeaky clean. If you’re considering a jeep in Hawaii and don’t go for an electric convertible like this one you’re making a mistake. Whole experience was absolute luxury at an incredible price. Can’t wait till I come back and rent this jeep again. 10/10!

Very straightforward rental process. Arrived at the pick up, got in the car, drove it around for 4 days, cleaned it up, dropped it off in the same lot and checked out. Host was easily reachable by phone.

William was a great host. He communicated well, clearly and timely. It was my first time using Turo. He kindly answered all my questions and provided clear instructions. He was flexible and met me when we arrived at the vehicle, which wasn’t my originally selected pick-up time. I have a toddler that had traveled across time zones so the flexibility was appreciated! The vehicle was lovely, clean and taken care of. I would definitely rent from William again.

Essential convertible car rental tips for Nunawading adventures

Book your rental convertible early on Turo to secure the best vehicle for Melbourne's variable weather conditions. Look for features like heated seats for cooler Victorian mornings and a quality sound system to enhance your driving experience through the eastern suburbs. Consider vehicles with all-wheel drive if you plan to explore the Dandenong Ranges, and check for extras like Apple CarPlay or Android Auto for seamless navigation around Melbourne. Choose a hired convertible that matches your planned activities, whether that's city touring around Richmond and Hawthorn or scenic drives through Victoria's countryside.

Frequently asked questions in Nunawading

Why choose a convertible for exploring Nunawading?

A convertible car offers the perfect way to experience Melbourne's eastern suburbs with the wind in your hair and unobstructed views of Victoria's beautiful landscapes. The open-air driving experience enhances your connection to Nunawading's leafy streets and nearby attractions like the Dandenong Ranges. Converting your journey into an immersive adventure, you'll appreciate the fresh air while navigating through areas like Glen Waverley and Blackburn with enhanced visibility and style.

How do you operate a convertible roof properly?

Most modern convertibles feature electronic roof controls located near the handbrake or on the centre console, requiring you to hold the button while the roof retracts or extends. Always ensure your Toyota or other hired convertible is stationary before operating the roof mechanism for safety reasons. Check that windows are slightly lowered during operation to prevent pressure build-up, and avoid using the roof controls in windy conditions around Melbourne's exposed areas.

What safety tips should convertible drivers follow?

Always secure loose items before lowering the roof, as Victoria's winds can easily scatter belongings throughout your car or onto the road. Wear sunscreen and sunglasses when driving through sunny areas around Australia, particularly during summer months when UV exposure increases significantly. Keep the roof up during heavy rain or when parking in areas like Richmond or South Melbourne where weather conditions can change rapidly.

Which scenic routes near Nunawading suit convertibles best?

The tree-lined streets connecting Nunawading to Glen Iris and Hawthorn provide perfect convertible driving with their canopy coverage and gentle curves. Routes through the Dandenong Ranges offer spectacular elevated views of Melbourne and Victoria's countryside, ideal for open-air motoring. Coastal drives toward Brighton showcase Australia's stunning shoreline, while the journey through Diamond Creek reveals beautiful bushland scenery perfect for convertible exploration.

How should you pack for a convertible road trip?

Pack light and secure all items in the boot or enclosed compartments, as open-air driving can cause loose objects to fly out during your journey through Victoria. Bring layers of clothing to adapt to changing temperatures, especially when travelling between Melbourne's urban areas and cooler regions like the Dandenong Ranges. Include a cap or scarf to manage wind effects, and ensure your Toyota or other rental car has adequate storage for essentials without compromising the convertible experience.

What weather factors affect convertible driving?

Strong winds common in Australia can make convertible driving challenging, particularly around exposed areas between Nunawading and coastal regions like Brighton. Rain requires immediate roof closure to protect both passengers and the car's interior from water damage. Temperature variations throughout Victoria mean you'll need to adjust clothing and potentially raise the roof when travelling through cooler areas like Tullamarine or when driving during Melbourne's unpredictable weather patterns.

What protection plan options does Turo offer?

When booking a car in Australia, you'll choose between the Premier (if available), Standard, and Minimum protection plans. Each plan includes varying limits on financial responsibility for damage to a host's vehicle. All trips include up to $20,000,000 (per event) in legal liability protection. Legal liability protection protects against damage to other people's property and death or bodily injury (where the legal liability is not covered or capable of being covered by any statutory or compulsory scheme) as a result of an accident involving the vehicle. All protection is provided by Turo Travels Mutual.*

What documents and paperwork do you need to rent a car on Turo?

To book a car on Turo in Australia, you must create a Turo account, be 21 years old or older, have a valid driver's licence, and get approved to drive on Turo. When you're booking your first trip, you'll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver's licence and some other information. In most cases, you'll get approved immediately, and you'll be set for every future road trip, business trip, and family holiday!

Is there unlimited kilometre car hire on Turo?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit — you'll need to check on each rental car individually to see if this service is provided. On the vehicle pages, you'll see the total miles or kilometres you're allowed to drive under the heading "Distance included." You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the "Unlimited distance" filter.
