I was surprisingly impressed with this car rental experience. Overall, I was really happy with the experience and would definitely rent again.
Great car and a great experience! The car was clean, well maintained, and exactly as described. It drove perfectly throughout the trip. Pickup and drop-off were quick and easy, and the host was friendly, responsive, and helpful. I would definitely rent this car again. Highly recommended!
Great experience. Very good car. It was perfect for my trip. I will definitely rent again when needed. Pick-up and drop-off were very easy.
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 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.
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.
James was great to rent from. The car was in excellent condition, clean, and had no problems throughout the rental. James was very helpful, kept me updated throughout the process, and clearly explained what to do every step of the way. The whole experience was smooth and hassle-free. I would definitely recommend renting from James and would happily rent from him again.
Proper car, proper host, zero nonsense. The Audi A6 was in excellent condition — clean, well kept and clearly looked after properly, not just “rental clean” for appearances. Drives beautifully, looks sharp, and does exactly what a good A6 should do: makes the journey feel quietly superior without shouting about it. The host was excellent as well — easy, reliable and refreshingly normal to deal with. Very happy to recommend.
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!
