Everything was great! It was a smooth car rental experience and Nagi was there to meet me in time both at pick up and drop off.
Best price compared to other cars, good confirmation speed, good response time mid-trip for any questions about the car, economical car, phone holder and cables provided, car in good condition, no issues. For an affordable, economic car for a quick get away and availability as means of transport and performance and features is not your priority, I recommend booking this car. Thank you for accomodating the booking.

Excellent experience from start to finish. Micah was friendly, professional, and had great communication throughout the trip. The Audi A3 was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described.

Great rental. Uzair was very professional and the car is super smooth to drive. Will rent again!
Soban was a fantastic host, and the entire rental experience was seamless from start to finish. The pick-up and drop-off process is incredibly easy and convenient, especially for anyone traveling through Victoria Station or flying in and out of Gatwick. It made both travel days completely stress-free. The car itself was comfortable, drove beautifully, and had excellent gas mileage. Everything was exactly as described, and communication was smooth throughout. I would happily rent from Soban again and highly recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a reliable and convenient option.
The rental was stop on, the owner was on time and very informative, the car itself was extremely clean and it drove perfectly with no issues. Will definitely be back to rent from them again.
Fantastic experience renting from Sara. The car was in great condition, the instructions were clear, and the entire process was seamless from start to finish. Sara was responsive, professional, and very reasonable to deal with. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and appreciated her helpful communication throughout. Highly recommended, and I would gladly book with her again in the future.
The owner was very polite, friendly, and always responsive. Communication was excellent throughout the rental, and they were helpful whenever I had any questions. The car was as described, and the whole experience was smooth and hassle-free. I would happily rent from them again.
As many people, I and a former ZipCar member. And Kash Z was very understanding, helpful and supportive as it was my first time hiring a car on Turo. The car was immaculate in the inside and super "Show-Room" clean! The car had a full tank and did my TURO check in photos, then away I was on my journey! I have driven a lot of different automatic/manual cars and this Toyoya Aygo is a great small AUTOMATIC car. This Automatic gearbox can also allow you to shift Up/Down gears. This type of gear box does have a slight noticeable delay when it shifts as it changes gears in auto mode, which is just a Toyota gearbox design. Great reverse camera, which is always a nice feature. That aside and once use to the car, it was a great car to Drive. Kash keeps it in top condition!
Amazing car, as always the communication with Valerie was easy,I requested to modify the car booking. nice car, will definitely book their cars again soon.
