If you’re looking to rent a car in Sydney, look no further! This was the perfect car, so fun and great to zip around in. Easy to pick up and drop off. Great communication with the host. Can’t recommend it more! I may go home and trade in my car for a mini!! Thank you!

The best little ride! Suichu was an incredible host - quick to respond with clear pick up and drop off instructions, which made collection and drop off a breeze for a first time TURO user. The car itself was in pristine condition and well maintained, perfect for a weekend trip to the Central Coast. I’m looking forward to my next trip with the little Mini

MINI CLUBMAN 2020

Great fast and fun car. The suspension is super stiff and it handles like a proper Mini, actually the fastest one ever made. I liked the aftermarket exhaust for the week, my wife found it a little annoying and I wouldn’t have it on my daily. But the pops and bangs were enjoyable especially in all the tunnels. Stuart is super communicative and makes sure everything goes smoothly.
