What our clients say ...
Seriously impressed with these guys, what a service and extremely professional. Car was so clean when collected and had a good amount of petrol in the car when I collected. I hire a car at least 3 times a year and guess who is getting my business every time... yep you got it, Drive Car Hire!
Jake
Rented a car through these guys, the customer service was second to none. Matt was particularly helpful. The car was absolutely immaculate, would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking for a dual control car!! Keep up the good work
Oliver
They already rescued me twice this year and I can always rely on their services. Roy the manager and his staff will go out his way to get you back on the road. I will be using them again in the future.
Jay
I had the most pleasurable experience with these guys, they delivered the car on time and the car was impressively clean. Contact before, during and after the hire was fantastic. Communication was very easy and pleasant and I will always return to use them when needed.
