Ford Focus in Turkey

Well, in general, the car was not the one that was booked, they gave Hyundai accent instead of Ford focus, for some reason it seems to me that it is of a lower class than the focus, if I knew that they would replace it, I would not have booked it, but because I had to leave already , I had to take an accent, but everything is fine! The tires were from different manufacturers and with different patterns on the same axle at the back, not entirely critical of course, we drove normally, but still, this is not up to standard

Hyundai i20 in Turkey

Everything went very well. Very convenient to rent a car, no delays. Comfortable price, no restrictions on mileage. The only difficulty was that the guys did not speak English, so we had to communicate via google translator from Russian to Turkish and back again.

Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey

Met at Bursa airport. We quickly drove the car to the airport building. The problem was with the English language. When returning, he postponed the return date by three days. They agreed without any problem. Returned the car at the new Istanbul Airport. Also not difficult at the 5th column. In general, I can recommend the company.
