Very positive experience. I got an XTrail for 2 days for 84 AUD! I was picked up promptly at the airport and dropped off too. So worked out very economic! Also chose to add a car seat which was good.
People were friendly and the car gave me no problems. I did not choose to reduce the escess as I had travel insurance.
When I was trying to get quotes from their website for various options, I got a phonecall from their for every quote I tried - this was a little annoying and I hope they have a way to crosscheck that the same person may be trying out various options before finalising a quote.

i used this firm 2years ago and well they charge me days when i only had 2 , then they charged my credit card extra so i would not suggest them to anyone as they are total rip offs my cost was to be 150per day and 300 deposit when i contacted them i never got a reply so this is a pathetic company as far as i am concerned

Approximate cost: $800

I hired a Nissan Micra from Alpha Care Hire on Franklin Street and it was fantastic. It was in great condition and got the job done with no problems at all (driving to Wilson Promontory). The service was great when I arrived to pick it up early morning and the whole transaction went very smoothly. The price was also a major factor for me, and they were substantially cheaper than most of the other car hire places I looked at. They also had an option where you could pay a small fee to have the excess removed from the car in the event I had an accident. This was undoubtedly the best care hire experience I've ever had and I highly recommend people consider them when thinking about their next car rental.
