Absolutely cheapest car rental company?

RyanCanuck's picture

I'm sorry, I know this has been asked before a thousand times. The problem is most of the threads are 4 years old.

What is the absolutely cheapest car available for rent through a reputable company?

(I'm not interested in renting from anyone's friend, thanks!)

.I just rented a 2012 Kia Picanto for a couple of days while my car was being serviced. I paid 80 per day and the car is by no means dangerous! It pulls away quickly and I feel very safe in it. Don't always think bigger is better!

Buddy,

cheaper cars on rental basis are easy to find in Qatar but the car owners make very strict conditions.

i had a bad experience for finding cheaper car like you on rental basis as there was a condition that if car involves in an accident and it's not my fault, i still have to pay the rent for car for the days it stays in garage. THAT'S REDICULOUS....

Big rent a cars like AVIS, BUDGET or THRIFTY etc. you don't have to worry about any thing bcz even you crash their cars, you just have to pay small amount as these cars are fully insured rather than those small rent a cars, who are just waiting for a prey (Customer) and suck all the money you have....

May be it's just me and i don't have any intention to discourage you to get a cheaper car if budget is a concern of yours.

Have a safe and joyful weekend.

Thanks, classic1970. I rented with Hertz in Dubai, had a minor accident and they were great about giving me a new car to use while the old one got serviced. I see your point how that would be irritating to not have a car to use, yet still be paying the rent (not sure how that works). Thanks for the input.

I used to use them in 2008-2009. 1500 QAR a month for manual nissan sunny / mitsubishi lancer. They were usually about 5 year old cars, but they worked.. Give them a ring and just ask for the cheapest junk of a car, that's how i did my negotiation :)

magpiemartin said car hire ...

Ryan I used Petra because they were cheap and to be honest it was a false economy when I took the care back as they tried to charge for this and that etc

I now use Eurodollar and did a six month deal on a Kia Rio for 1700 QAR per month, worth it as cars are uch better and they are veru professional, were out to be within 30 minutes on a previous car because of a flat battery etc hope it helps

hi ryan

when you rented with hertz did you pay extra for insurance? Or the price on their website includes all the insurance needed for any collision etc?

thanks

RyanCanuck said Hi watchingtv, I can't ...

Hi watchingtv,

I can't remember. I know I paid about 1500 AED (in Dubai) at Diamond Lease for a Lancer and that included insurance. But that was about 6 years ago, so I'm sure prices have gone up since then.

Good luck, mate. Let me know if you find a good deal (I'll do the same).
