I'm About to Play the Rental Car Lottery Again - What Will I Get?
It's time to return the enjoyable BMW 320d hire car from Sixt which I featured previously. My rental period for the BMW is up so I'll be dropping it off at the return location shortly and picking up...a mystery.
What Car Will I Get Next?
Unless you book a rental car with a company like Silvercar or through Turo it's always a bit of a mystery what type of car you'll actually be assigned. Just about a week ago I ended up with a Mk 6 VW Jetta which turned out to be an enjoyable drive.
Today I have a car reserved with Europcar in the "Ford Focus or similar" class of cars. Fords are fairly common here in Denmark so it wouldn't be a surprise if I actually receive a Focus but you never know.
Other common rental car makes here are:
- Audi
- BMW
- Opel
- Nissan
Any Guesses?
- What type of car do you think I'll actually receive today?
- Do you like trying out new cars?
UPDATE: The assigned car turns out to be the antithesis of an enthusiast's choice. It's the Opel Mokka X - a small, crossover. More later...
Nissan altima seems like a nice car if they have them for a rental, may need an upgrade. Not sure if they have the Ford mustang available, but that would be nice to try.
I rented a Nissan Altima in Colorado not that long ago but found it a very generic car. Perfectly useful as transport but really plain and uninteresting from an enthusiasts perspective.
I'd love to try the latest generation Mustang sometime. Not a common vehicle where I am in Denmark at the moment though but a good one to try via Turo.com when I am in the US.
