BEST ON TURO FOR COST AND CARE! This is my 2nd time renting a car from Elliot, and it will not be the last!! He's always very good at communication, car is always clean and is GREAT on fuel!! Highly recommend 😊
Dan's an excellent host and his cars are excellent to drive making the whole process really enjoyable and smooth. I'd highly recommend using Dan to anyone looking to rent a car.
Second hire with Elliot and his fab little car. Surprisingly nippy, with plenty of space for what we needed. Elliot was super helpful in letting us extend the trip, so really appreciated. Will definitely book again and highly recommend!
The host was very professional, friendly, flexible and informative, the vehicle itself ran smoothly plus its at the top of its range unlike any other on Turo, it is a true bargain at this price. I would definitely rent this vehicle again.
Lloyd was superb to deal and couldn’t have been more accommodating with regards to extending the rental. The car is a great ride and definitely ideal for longer journeys! Thanks again Lloyd. Will use you again should I need a car again!
Elliot was a fantastic car host and the To-Yoda was absolutely perfect for our needs. Nippy, clean, space when needed, aux cable for music and extremely economical. Will be booking the car again soon for sure and highly recommend. Many thanks :)
Dan is a great host, would recommend using him your next rental. The car was immaculate and the whole experience ran smoothly. Cheers Dan
Nice car! Great handling and very comfortable. No problem at all! Dan is great host and is always quick to respond.
Having a car for the whole day to explore worked out cheaper than just an airport transfer, Duncan was a cool G to deal with
Kingsley is a great guy! He was flexible with the trip starting as well as ending time, which helped us a lot in our situation (we took the car to continue the trip after ours broke down). The car was nice to drive, comfortable clean and in a good condition. I would recommend without hesitation!
Had a brilliant trip with the car, Daniel was very helpful and had everything sorted out from the start. Would definitely use again.
Fantastic communication. Met me in central Manchester. Also let me return the car early as I didn't need it for the last few hours. Great, easy process. Definitely recommend Nick and co!
Amazing car, amazing owner. Tidy, powerful and badass car with all the functions you would need. Also high MPG which was great for me as I’ve driven around 850 miles in less than a week. Ryan is responsive, nice and adjusted when my trip changed. Defintely recommend him and the car, pick this BMW as it is the best option in the area!
The Fiesta drove brilliantly with absolutely no problems. Dan was a great host throughout the entire trip. Looking forward to renting again with Dan and Turo!
