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!

I love the rental cars from Mohammed. He and his staff is friendly and helpful. The cars are small and good at gas. I would suggest anyone to rent a car with Mohammed.

Rented this last minute because my Mom didn't tell me until the day before my trip that she had no car. Was pretty easy for the most part. Finding the shuttle at the airport for the car rental area, was a little difficult for me. But you can always ask someone at the airport. Then I followed Turo given directions to the car. It's outside of the rental area but still easy to find because the lot is literally labeled "Turo." As for the car, I DID NOT MIND these "problems" with the car at all, but you should be informed that the car: Cons - Smelled INTENSELY LIKE WEED. I tried to spray it with multiple Febreze, etc. It helped but it still stinks a bit. - The car door lock was extremely finicky, you must PRESS AND HOLD the button it seems. - Crumbs in the backseat (no big deal) - Not sure but seems like occasional light scraping sound sometimes when driving around on normal road. - Not a problem per se, but just know the car has quite a bit of scratches compared to other Turo rentals. Just be sure to document as much as you can. Pros - Good Value for the price - ICE COLD A/C. (Although I visited in winter, so idk how it holds up to the Vegas heat, but again better than my childhood cars with zero A/C) - Pretty quiet car overall (I mention the scrape for the owner to consider getting it checked out, but nothing to make you feel embarrassed while driving.) Overall, I grew up poor, and this car was much better than most of the ones of my childhood, so I didn't mind at all. Just tried my best to document them that's all. But anyone renting who these things might bother should be aware of it. Anyways, thank you so much Nick!!! I would definitely rent again!

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.

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

Toyota Corolla Hybrid 2026

“10/10 experience. I rented the car for a week and the total came out to around $400, which was an amazing price for a brand new 2026 vehicle. The entire process was incredibly easy from start to finish. Pickup and drop-off were smooth and convenient, and I loved that I didn’t have to physically meet or talk to anyone. The key was waiting in a lockbox by the window, which honestly made the experience even better for me. The car itself was spotless, smelled clean, and drove perfectly. It was also amazing on gas — I drove all the way through Saturday and the tank was only halfway. The host responded quickly to messages and was super helpful the entire time. Overall, this was one of the easiest and best rental experiences I’ve had. I would absolutely rent from them again and honestly would choose this over Enterprise or Hertz any day

Fandi and our cohost provided excellent communication throughout the process. Our car, 2020 Honda Insight was clean and in good working order. Performance was good around the hills and mountains in the greater San Francisco area. The drop off at the San Jose airport was excellent. Why go to the “normal” car rental companies!

Patience is key; allow extra time for your journey and maintain a calm demeanour to ensure a safe and stress-free driving experience in your rental car.

Which car types are recommended for exploring Sutton and its surrounding areas?

For exploring Sutton and its environs, a versatile vehicle is ideal. A compact car is perfect for navigating Sutton's town centre and finding parking spaces with ease. If you're planning to venture into the countryside, consider a small SUV, which offers better visibility and handling on rural roads. For families or groups, a spacious estate car provides ample room for passengers and luggage. Electric vehicles are increasingly popular in Sutton, with charging points available throughout the area. Whatever your choice, ensure the vehicle suits your specific needs and driving comfort.

Driving safely in Sutton during inclement weather requires extra caution. In heavy rain, reduce your speed and increase your following distance to allow for longer stopping times. Ensure your hired car's headlights are on to improve visibility. During foggy conditions, use fog lights if available, but remember to turn them off when visibility improves. Avoid using high beams in fog as they can reflect off the moisture and reduce visibility further. Be particularly careful on country roads around Sutton, where sudden bends or wildlife may appear. If conditions become too hazardous, find a safe place to pull over and wait for the weather to improve. Always prioritise safety over reaching your destination quickly when driving in challenging weather conditions.

Are there any toll roads to be aware of when driving from Sutton to central London?

When driving from Sutton to central London, there are no traditional toll roads to worry about. However, it's crucial to be aware of the Congestion Charge and Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) in central London. These are not tolls per se, but daily charges for driving in specific areas. The Congestion Charge applies on weekdays during working hours, while the ULEZ operates 24/7. Check if your rental car meets ULEZ standards to avoid additional charges. It's advisable to plan your route carefully and consider using public transport for trips into central London to avoid these charges. Always verify the most current information regarding these zones and charges before your journey.

How can renters plan an enjoyable road trip from Sutton to nearby attractions in Greater London?

The beautiful Richmond Park, known for its deer herds and expansive green spaces, is perfect for nature lovers. For a cultural experience, drive to the charming town of Greenwich, home to the Royal Observatory. Don't forget to pack essentials like snacks and water for your journey. Plan your stops in advance, considering factors like parking availability and opening hours of attractions. Enjoy the freedom your car rental provides to explore these Greater London gems at your own pace, creating a personalised and memorable experience.

What are the best practices for navigating Sutton's bustling high street during busy shopping periods?

Navigating Sutton's bustling high street during peak shopping times requires patience and planning. If possible, time your visit to avoid the busiest periods, typically weekends and late afternoons. When driving, be extra vigilant for pedestrians who may step out unexpectedly. Utilise nearby car parks rather than searching for on-street parking, which can be scarce and time-limited. Consider using side streets parallel to the high street for easier navigation. Keep an eye out for delivery vehicles and buses, which may cause temporary obstructions. If you're not familiar with the area, a quick study of the local one-way systems before your trip can be helpful. Remember, sometimes it's more convenient to park a bit further away and enjoy a short walk to the shops, especially during particularly busy times.
