Needed a car to take me up to the midlands for a birthday party and glad I chose this one. The Pickup was very easy! I met the owner and they showed me the basic functions. I hadn’t used this type of automatic shift but quickly got the hand of it! It drives very smooth, the cars clean and the owners are very kind and helpful with any questions. They even gave me snacks for the road The car very fuel efficient! The full tank lasted me a round trip to Blackburn/liverpool & back to London (around 450 miles). I’d recommend & will definitely be using it again for future long haul trips
Great and easy car rental! Will definitely rent it again, Edith was great!
Car was great , great price for a central prick up and Pauline was a great host
Roy and the rest of the team at esco was very helpful and accommodating, this is one of the best if not the best rental I’ve taken out on Turo. Highly recommend, car was clean, good drive and the host was highly responsive
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic experience from start to finish. The car was spotless, well maintained, and drove perfectly throughout the trip. Pickup and drop-off were both quick, easy, and hassle-free, and the host was friendly, professional, and responsive to any questions. Everything was exactly as described, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable rental. Thank you!
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.
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 experience with Turo! The car was clean, smooth to drive, and exactly as described. Pickup and return process was very easy, and the host was friendly and responsive. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a convenient and affordable car rental.
I'd definitely recommend renting from Soheb, he's an absolutely wonderful person. He delivered the car to us and was very flexible with the time and excellent with communication before and during our trip. If I could give more stars I would!!!
Fantastic experience from start to finish! The host was incredibly polite, professional, and highly responsive to all my messages. The car was exceptionally tidy, and a pleasure to drive. I couldn't have asked for a smoother rental.
Nice trip, very good car. Straightforward instructions. I will definitely use it again and recommend others too. Thanks
Will and his Renault Zoe were exactly what I needed. The car was in great condition, clean, and drove brilliantly. Will was incredibly kind and helpful throughout — easy to communicate with and made the whole experience completely stress-free. Everything about the rental was seamless from start to finish. Will and his car are now my go-to on Turo — couldn’t recommend more highly!
Great little car. Very spacious boot. Perfect for a weekend away. I wanted a car with a gear stick and hand break as I enjoy driving and not just push a button. Ty was a great host and sent instant response. I will definitely rent from Ty again :)
Great experience. I had a puncture and the host Kash Z went above and beyond to make sure things went smoothly both for me and for the next person waiting to rent the car! A real gentleman.
