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.

It’s clear the host takes great care of both their vehicles and their customers. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and overall professionalism throughout the rental process.

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!

The host, Tadeh was exceptional. The very best in customer service. I had the best experience with renting from Tadeh. Everything was so easy; Tadeh was super accommodating, very kind, he went way above and beyond what I reasonably expected. Tadeh is a thousand times better than AVIS, HERTZ, Enterprise, Thrifty, Budget, Dollar, and all the major car rental. Tadeh gave me the best deal; the major car rentals do not come close; I saved a lot of money. The car was great, very good on the gas mileage; and very clean. Tadeh made sure pick-up location was very convenient for me, Tadeh drove the car to where I was; it’s the best. Tadeh also picked up the car when I was done and again made sure it was convenient for me. I am very grateful for this. Once I return from my deployment, absolutely renting from Tadeh again; will be telling all my friends and colleagues. This is just amazing customer service. I am very appreciative for everything. THANK YOU

Northallerton serves as an excellent starting point for exploring the stunning North Yorkshire countryside. The scenic route through Wensleydale offers breathtaking views of rolling hills and charming villages. As you drive along, you'll pass by the iconic Bolton Castle and the serene Aysgarth Falls. Another beautiful journey takes you through the heart of the North York Moors, where heather-clad landscapes stretch as far as the eye can see. The road to Helmsley via Sutton Bank provides panoramic vistas of the Vale of York. For a coastal experience, head east towards Whitby, passing through quaint fishing villages and along dramatic clifftops. These routes showcase the diverse beauty of North Yorkshire, making a car essential for fully appreciating the region's natural splendour.

How can drivers navigate Northallerton's town centre during busy market days?

Navigating Northallerton's town centre during bustling market days requires some local know-how. The High Street, which hosts the market, can become quite congested. It's advisable to utilise the car parks on the outskirts of the town centre, such as those near the Applegarth or behind the Hambleton District Council offices. From there, it's a short walk to the market area. If you must drive through, consider using alternative routes like Friarage Street or Romanby Road to bypass the busiest sections. Keep an eye out for temporary traffic measures that may be in place during market hours. Patience is key, as the town can get quite lively with both locals and visitors enjoying the market atmosphere. Remember, Northallerton's charm lies in its traditional market town feel, so embrace the bustling environment as part of your Yorkshire experience.

Where are the most convenient petrol stations located when exploring the North York Moors from Northallerton?

When venturing into the North York Moors from Northallerton, it's wise to plan your fuel stops. In Northallerton itself, you'll find several convenient petrol stations along the main roads leading out of town. As you head towards the moors, Thirsk offers reliable options for fuelling up. Once you're in the heart of the North York Moors, petrol stations become scarcer, so it's prudent to top up when you can. The market town of Helmsley, often considered a gateway to the moors, has fuel available. If you're exploring the eastern side, Pickering provides a good opportunity to refuel. Remember, in more remote areas of the moors, petrol stations may have limited opening hours. It's always a good idea to keep your tank at least half full when driving through this beautiful but sometimes isolated part of North Yorkshire.

What should guests know about parking facilities in Northallerton's historic town centre?

Parking in Northallerton's historic town centre requires a bit of planning. The town offers a mix of short-stay and long-stay car parks, with most located within easy walking distance of the High Street. The Applegarth car park is particularly convenient for accessing the town centre. Pay and display systems are common, so keep some change handy. During busy periods, especially on market days, these central car parks can fill up quickly. Consider arriving early or using slightly more peripheral parking options. Some streets offer limited on-street parking, but be sure to check signage for restrictions. Disabled parking spaces are available in most car parks and some on-street locations. Remember, Northallerton's charm lies in its walkable town centre, so once parked, you can easily explore the historic streets and local attractions on foot.

Which car types are best suited for exploring the narrow lanes of North Yorkshire's rural villages?

For navigating the charming but often narrow lanes of North Yorkshire's rural villages, compact or small-sized cars are ideal. These vehicles offer the perfect balance of manoeuvrability and comfort, allowing you to easily navigate tight turns and narrow passages common in picturesque villages like Hutton-le-Hole or Rosedale Abbey. A hatchback or small SUV can provide ample space for luggage while still being nimble enough for country roads. If you're planning to venture into more rugged terrain, consider a car with slightly higher ground clearance. However, avoid large vehicles if possible, as they can be challenging to manoeuvre in village centres and on single-track roads. Remember, the joy of exploring North Yorkshire's rural charm often lies in the journey itself, so choose a car that allows you to relax and enjoy the stunning scenery without worrying about tight squeezes.

How can drivers prepare for potentially challenging weather conditions when touring the Yorkshire Dales?

When touring the Yorkshire Dales, it's crucial to be prepared for the region's changeable weather. Check the forecast regularly and plan your route accordingly. In winter, ensure your vehicle is equipped with a good heating system and consider winter tyres for better traction on icy roads. Pack warm clothing and blankets, just in case. During wetter periods, be cautious of flooded roads, especially in low-lying areas. The Dales can experience sudden fog, so familiarise yourself with your car's fog lights. In summer, while generally milder, sudden rain showers can occur, so keep a light waterproof jacket handy. Regardless of the season, always carry a charged mobile phone for emergencies. Remember, weather in the Dales can change rapidly, so flexibility in your plans is key. Embracing the varied climate is part of the authentic Yorkshire Dales experience, adding to the adventure of your journey through this stunning landscape.

What are important considerations for guests planning a road trip from Northallerton to the Yorkshire coast?

When planning a road trip from Northallerton to the Yorkshire coast, there are several important considerations to keep in mind. Firstly, plan your route in advance, considering whether you prefer the scenic route through the North York Moors or the quicker A19. Be prepared for varying road conditions, from motorways to country lanes. Check your vehicle's tyres and fluid levels before setting off. Pack essentials like water, snacks, and a first-aid kit. The coastal weather can be unpredictable, so bring layers of clothing. Consider stopping at charming villages en route, such as Helmsley or Pickering, to break up the journey. Once at the coast, be aware of parking restrictions in popular towns like Whitby or Scarborough, especially during peak seasons. Remember, the journey from Northallerton to the coast offers diverse landscapes, from rolling countryside to dramatic coastlines, making the drive itself a memorable part of your Yorkshire adventure.

Are there any toll roads or bridges to be aware of when driving around North Yorkshire?

When driving around North Yorkshire, you'll be pleased to know that there are no toll roads or bridges to worry about. This makes exploring the region by car both convenient and cost-effective. The extensive network of roads, from major motorways to scenic country lanes, is free to use. However, it's worth noting that while there are no tolls, some areas may have parking charges, particularly in popular tourist spots or city centres. In Northallerton and surrounding towns, you'll find a mix of free and paid parking options. When venturing into national parks like the North York Moors or Yorkshire Dales, some car parks may charge a small fee, which often goes towards the upkeep of these beautiful areas. Overall, the absence of tolls allows for unrestricted exploration of North Yorkshire's diverse landscapes and charming towns, making it an ideal region for a road trip adventure.
