Renault TWINGO II 2014

Eric and Valerie have made it impossible for me to ever rent from one of the big international car rental companies again. This was my third rental with them and they are everything the big guys are not. They are friendly, efficient, customer focused are most importantly really easy to deal with. Their cars are great as well.

The host, the car, and the whole Turo experience was 10/10. The price was fantastic and the whole experience was seamless. We had weird hours we wanted to leave and return the car that would not have worked with a car rental agency, but Angel and Turo made the whole process easy and seamless. I’m a bigger guy so I was worried about how comfortable the car would be and it was perfect. The great ride made our whole vacation possible and comfortable. I really appreciated the vehicles safety features too!

Nissan Altima 2025

The Nissan Altima was great. Good mpg, clean, lots of power, great response time. The car needed to be picked up at an off site location called, economy car rental at 2367 India street. A proximity 2 1/2 miles from the airport. You will need to find a ride to their location. The price of taxi will be $30, however we took the free shuttle to the car rental center then walked 20 minutes the rest of the way. The team at this location did a great job, fast, friendly, polite, and after returning they able to offer a ride back to the airport. We would rent this Altima again, and I would recommend this vehicle.

Easy pick up and drop off. Car was very clean inside. A/C blows super cold even when it's 100 degrees out!! The windows are not tinted so I suggest bringing your own sun shades if you are going to be parked anywhere but the shade in the summer. Luckily I had those and that made my trip much better. The flip down visors do have the extenders to help block sun while driving thankfully. Charging prices are comparable to current gas prices - about $45 to get 250 miles of charge over a few sessions which is the same as I get from a full tank in my Toyota Yaris. This car DOES have the CHAdeMO fast charge input so it's 30-50 seconds per mile to charge depending on the fast charger & whether you're running the car (AC/radio) or it's fully off. Radio speakers were a little blown out so I had to adjust some settings to listen to my audiobooks but it was easy to do. I had no problem driving from the pickup spot to Kyle, then to the airport, and back into town without needing a charge which was about 90 miles, mostly highway. Just like any Turo rental make sure to take your own photos at pickup and drop off since scratches and such aren't usually documented after every drive by the car owners which seems standard in my experience. Overall a great deal, best price in town especially for a last minute rental. I requested the rental at 9pm on a Tuesday after my personal car died and was able to get this the next morning with no issue. Will definitely keep them in mind when I need a rental near by. Thanks again!

First, I contemplated leaving a 4 star review for a few reasons. However, the prompt response to the issue with the original vehicle reserved, partly due to luck that someone happened to be onsite with the car, and the flexibility with returning the vehicle without requiring washing and vacuuming is deserving of some grace. The price for 5 day/4 night rental was fantastic, around $150 total. I certainly didn't expect a car in pristine shape for the cost. This car is a part of a Turo "rental company" fleet. It seems like a company that buys cheap, used cars to rent out. There are 12-15 cars parked behind a strip mall 8-10ish minutes from the airport in an area I was glad we were picking up and dropping off midday rather than the evening. The hybrid we originally reserved had stained seats and a lot of cosmetic wear. One tire looked like it was on a spare wheel and didn't have a lot of life left, honestly. A lot of the roads in San Diego aren't exactly in great shape, I was concerned about getting a flat. When we turned the car on to leave we immediately got check engine lights and a "pull over immediately" message. Fortunately, someone with the "rental company" was on site and qas able to quickly switched cars for us. It wasn't a hybrid, though. We didn't plan on a lot of driving, but originally opted for a hybrid to save money since we had two days of freeway driving. We definitely spent more on gas then originally planned. If there wasn't someone available onsite to help, it could have been a much longer ordeal which is a terrible way to start a vacation. Communication day of pick up felt slow with the owner. I didn't think to look back to the 2 month old message about how to find the car. I received a message from Turo saying we'd be sent details the day before the trip. I never got that confirmation text or measage the day before or day of pick up from the actual rental owner. When I first reached out to the rental company through the turo app to find the car at pick up time, I didn't get a response. I finally found a way to text someone about 20 minutes later. We did get a pretty quick response that way, but it's frustrating to be in a random parking lot messaging through an app and not get a response. The Honda interior is definitely cleaner than the hybrid we reserved, but the exterior, not so much. Its been side swiped and has a lot of sun damage. The TPMS light was on the whole time, but the actual tire pressure was fine. There was also a rattle and grinding noise when accelerating from a stop or on a hill, but it didn't cause an issue. The car drives fine for a 14-15 year old car, it's just a little noisy and you feel all the bumps on the road. I understand with the cheaper cost of renting through Turo amd choosing a 12-15 year old car, I'm not getting a newer car like I would with a standard rental company or paying more for a newer car. That said, with my last few Turo rentals, it feels a lot of these Turo "rental companies" aren't checking their cars or doing much more than standard maintenance as frequently as they should when they have over 150,000 miles on them. The confirmation message also suggested the cars are kept in great shape. These cars were not in great shape by any stretch of the imagination. No one wants to be on vacation and have their car break down or even be worried that the car they're driving is gonna get a flat or break down.

Solid rental experience. Car was as described. Had no issues and the host was communicative when I needed to change the reservation by a few days or hours. Super convenient location near the airport. Best price for the amount of time I needed it which was about 2 weeks. Will definitely rent again when I'm in town.

Subaru Outback 2013

Andre was great, the car was somewhat still dirty, dust, dirt, what appeared to be cigarette ashes, animal hair, sticky spills around the cup holders in the center console and the door panels. Crumbs and dust/dirt left in the door handles and cubby's. In the center console cup holders and cubbys. On the top of the dashboard, around the steering column and gauges. Sticky dusty windows and stereo buttons. Rear view mirror had sticky smudges on it. All the windows inside were dusty and dirty with smudges and idk what really.. the car had a bad smell of animals like dogs, and faint cigarette smell.. however as I got further into my trip I got used to it and wasn't bothered by it anymore. A lot of these issues honestly didn't bother me very much. I was more worried of being blamed for them when I returned the car. Unfortunately I was put behind schedule due to a passenger side headlight and passenger side tail light being burned out. However upon informing andre, he was very quick with a solution to take the car to valvoline where they were able to repair the lights before I left for my trip. If I wasn't already running late It wouldn't of bothered me. Andre was also very quick to reimburse me the whole price of the repairs immediately upon me sending him the receipt of the work.. I very much appreciated that! I also appreciate that instead of canceling my trip Andre worked out a way to have the lights fixed with no trouble of my own. He was always quick to respond to all of my very long messages full of questions. This is my first time using turo and I did not know the ins and outs of the rental process. He was able to guide me threw every step all while being polite and keeping his patience with me! Hah. I ended up running behind schedule on my way back as well and was surprised how simple and easy it was to change the return time from noon to after 9 p.m. all without adding any fees to my bill! That was very helpful of andre to allow me to do. I also ended up being a little passed my return time due to vacuuming the car and dusting everything to my best ability. So that andre wouldn't have to deal with someone else's mess and the next person who rents the vehicle will not have to worry about it either. I had no issues with doing that for him after he was so helpful with me! The vehicle was a little different then what im used to. But in no time I settled in with the car and had a very enjoyable trip! I would forsure rent another vehicle from andre in the future due to how well he accommodated me on this trip. Even tho the car had the mess, that was not andre, But left over from previous renters. He even made sure to have a snow brush and ice scraper in the car for me. But unfortunately the previous renters also took that with them. Im sure there will be a new one for the next person who rents the car because thats how much andre cares about his customers !! 5 stars for andre !!! Whoever returned his vehicle like that should be ashamed and think about how it would feel if someone treated your things the same way! Once again THANK YOU andre! I will reach out to you next time I need to rent a car.. I appreciate all your help thru the process! I appreciate your professionalism and quick responses to all my questions and thank you for making sure the vehicle was 100% good to go for me before I left and wouldn't of been able to fix it. 5 of 5 stars for andre !!

My credit card wasn’t working for some odd reason and rental companies wouldn’t let me rent a car so I booked this Turo last minute and it was a reasonable price for five days. I will do it again when I come back to Vancouver in August.

Excellent 1st experience using Turo. The host was very responsive and timely. The vehicle was in great condition and rode very well. The price was a good deal and would definitely use this again as opposed to a major car rental facility. It was a simple process overall and very straightforward.

Highly recommend! First of all Rigid was very helpful from the beginning. I wasn’t exactly sure what days I would be arriving at GSO so I had to keep rescheduling the rental, but Rigid was very understanding and willing to work with me! Very well communicated from making the reservation to returning the car. Very easy pickup, the car was dropped off right outside the arrival level, so no long walk to the parking lot or rental car center etc. Clean car with good mpg! Will definitely rent again next time I coming through GSO airport!

Another delightful option is the drive towards the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. For coastal views, head west towards Lytham St Annes. These routes offer varied landscapes, from lush green fields to dramatic moorlands. Remember to bring a map or use a reliable navigation system, as rural roads can be winding. Always check local weather forecasts before setting off, as conditions can change quickly in the countryside. These journeys allow you to fully appreciate the beauty of Lancashire from the comfort of your car hire.

How can drivers navigate peak hour traffic in Preston, the nearest large city to Leyland?

Navigating Preston's peak hour traffic requires some strategic planning. Consider using the city's park and ride facilities to avoid city centre congestion. If driving is necessary, plan your route to utilise the Preston Western Distributor road, which helps alleviate traffic on busier roads. Timing is crucial; if possible, try to avoid the rush hours between 7:30-9:30 AM and 4:30-6:30 PM. Local radio stations provide regular traffic updates, helping you stay informed about any incidents or delays. Remember, patience is key during busy periods. If you're unfamiliar with Preston's layout, a reliable GPS can be invaluable for finding alternative routes when main roads are congested. Always allow extra time for your journey during peak hours to ensure a stress-free drive.

Which car types are recommended for comfortable journeys through Lancashire's diverse landscapes?

For comfortable journeys through Lancashire's diverse landscapes, consider a versatile vehicle that can handle various terrains. A mid-size car offers a good balance of comfort and fuel efficiency for most trips. If you're planning to explore rural areas, an SUV might be more suitable, providing better visibility and handling on country roads. For longer journeys or family trips, a spacious estate car could be ideal, offering ample room for passengers and luggage. If you're sticking to urban areas and main roads, a compact car would suffice, making parking easier in towns like Leyland. Whatever your choice, ensure the vehicle has good fuel economy for those longer countryside drives. Remember, the right car rental can enhance your Lancashire adventure, making every journey more enjoyable.

Where can one find reliable petrol stations in and around Leyland for refueling during trips?

Leyland and its surrounding areas offer several reliable options for refuelling your vehicle. The town centre has a few well-known petrol stations, including ones on Towngate and Schleswig Way. For those venturing out of Leyland, you'll find petrol stations along major routes like the A6 and M6. It's advisable to plan your refuelling stops, especially when exploring rural Lancashire. Many larger supermarkets in the area also have fuel stations, often at competitive prices. When embarking on longer trips, it's wise to keep your tank at least a quarter full. Remember, petrol stations might be less frequent in more remote areas of Lancashire, so plan accordingly. Always check your fuel levels before setting off on any journey to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted drive through this beautiful region.

What are the best practices for driving safely on rural roads in Lancashire?

Driving safely on Lancashire's rural roads requires heightened awareness and caution. Always adhere to speed limits, which can change frequently on country roads. Be prepared for narrow lanes and blind bends by reducing your speed and staying alert. Watch out for wildlife, farm vehicles, and cyclists, especially during dawn and dusk. Use your headlights in poor visibility conditions, which can occur suddenly in rural areas. When passing horses or livestock, slow down and give them plenty of space. Be mindful of changing road surfaces, particularly in wet weather. If you need to stop, find a safe place off the road, avoiding soft verges. Remember, rural roads may lack street lighting, so extra caution is needed at night. By following these practices, you can enjoy the beautiful Lancashire countryside while ensuring a safe journey.

Are there any toll roads to be aware of when driving from Leyland to nearby cities?

When driving from Leyland to nearby cities in Lancashire, you'll be pleased to know that there are no toll roads to worry about. The majority of roads in the area, including major motorways like the M6 and M61, are free to use. This makes exploring the region by car hire both convenient and cost-effective. However, it's worth noting that if you plan to venture further afield, such as towards Liverpool, you might encounter the Mersey Gateway Bridge, which does charge a toll. Always check your planned route before setting off, especially if you're heading to areas outside of Lancashire. Remember, while there may not be toll roads, parking charges in city centres can vary, so it's wise to research parking options in advance for a smooth and budget-friendly trip.

What essential tips should guests know about parking facilities in Leyland town centre?

When visiting Leyland town centre, it's essential to be aware of the parking situation. The town offers a mix of on-street and off-street parking options. Many streets have time-limited free parking, but always check signage carefully to avoid fines. The main car parks in the centre, such as those near the market or civic centre, often provide longer-term parking options. Some car parks operate a pay-and-display system, so keep change handy. During busy periods, like market days, parking can be more challenging, so arrive early if possible. Be mindful of resident-only parking zones in residential areas near the centre. If you're staying for an extended period, consider using one of the long-stay car parks on the outskirts of the town centre. Always lock your vehicle and avoid leaving valuables visible to ensure a worry-free visit to Leyland.

How can drivers prepare for various weather conditions when exploring Lancashire by car?

Preparing for Lancashire's varied weather conditions is crucial for a safe and enjoyable driving experience. Always check the local weather forecast before setting out. In rainy conditions, which are common in Lancashire, ensure your windscreen wipers are in good condition and reduce your speed to improve traction. For foggy weather, use fog lights correctly and increase your following distance. During the colder months, be prepared for potential ice or snow, especially on rural roads. Consider keeping a warm blanket and some snacks in your car for unexpected delays. In summer, sunglasses can be helpful for glare. Regardless of the season, it's wise to have a fully charged mobile phone for emergencies. By being prepared for all weather scenarios, you can confidently explore Lancashire's beautiful landscapes in any condition.
