Amazing communication and the car was fun to drive. Always wanted to drive a mini coop! Will rent again very soon!
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 Mini was a great car and a great price! It was exactly where the host said it would be and the directions were clear! We would ABSOLUTELY use this car again on a future trip!
Car was great. Perfect for going to the North Shore and scenic stops. I would rent this Mini again next time.
Easy pick up and return, driving the mini Cooper around was easy and had no problems. If I ever need to rent a car again I will definitely check for this mini Cooper!
I rented a Mini Cooper JCW, and everything went perfectly. The car was delivered directly to my address, which was very convenient. The vehicle was new, clean, and in excellent condition. Great service, smooth experience, and no issues at all. I definitely recommend renting from them!
Last-minute reservation and the host could not have been more accommodating. He was incredibly helpful walking me through the app, the process, and sharing useful tips, especially at pickup and return. Very hands-on when needed, but otherwise gave me space and didn’t bother me throughout the trip unless I reached out. The Mini Cooper was an absolute fun to drive: fun, comfortable, and surprisingly roomy inside. Very flexible to accommodate your needs upon return. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and I’d definitely rent from him again.
The car was perfect for the drive-around in Hawaii. The host was very friendly and nice I recommend anyone who’s looking for a convertible to rent this mini! I had a great time!
This is the second time I've come to rent a car and everything is always perfect
The only thing about our trip with the Mini that we did not like was giving her back! Absolutely fun, smooth car that did super well on gas and had all the bells and whistles. The Mini was the perfect size for two people and our luggage! If we come back down this way we will definitely be looking to rent Mini again! This was our first time using Turo and our host was more than accommodating and made the process very smooth. Highly recommend this car!
The mini was a fantastic car and we loved driving it for the few days in and around Seattle. It is a new car and has all the features that you would expect and was sporty to drive. Ryan and his team were super communicative through the trip and answered any questions we had. The car pick up and drop off were so convenient at the airport. This was the first time I have used Turo to rent a car and now I believe I will check it out first before looking at conventional rental car companies.
My wife and I had so much fun in the Mini Cooper! The team was super responsive, and kind. The car is clean, tech-savvy, very sharp looking. Being able to put the top down in the Cali Sun was icing on the cake. I will definitely rent this car on a future L.A. trip!
The Mini was great to rent. It runs well is very comfortable. I drove it to 2 of my work meetings and it was a nice conversation piece. Its a fun little car very with a smooth ride. Excellent thank you!
Loved this car for my trip with my daughter! It was easy and fun to drive. Very clean and zero issues. Only a 5min Uber from the airport. All was seamless! Thanks for such a great car rental! Will rent again!
You can’t ask for a better host, or car! Elisabel’s Mini was awesome, and the car is very well taken care of. She went above and beyond to make our first Turo car rental experience a fantastic one. We recommend her to everyone, and will be back to rent again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We made some wonderful memories in Hawaii with your Mini. My wife and two young daughters were beyond happy with everything! You’ve been such a kind and amazing host. If we ever rent a car in Hawaii again, we’ll definitely be looking for Steve’s awesome 'Mighty Mouse'! ^^
Fantastic experience renting from West Maui Minis. The car handled incredibly well on island roads and was a blast to drive. It was spotless when I picked it up downstairs at my resort and surprisingly roomy for a Mini — plenty comfortable for my needs. Ron clearly takes great care of his cars, and it shows. He picked up and dropped off my rental at the resort where I was staying making for a stress-free experience. Everything worked exactly as expected. This was a perfect car for exploring the island, and I wouldn’t hesitate to rent from this host again. Highly recommend!
