ABELL CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Due to a flight delay, I arrived late at night and couldn't pick up the car that day. The next morning, I called the rental company, and the owner personally drove to my hotel to take me to the office for the paperwork and car pick-up. The owner also drove me back to the hotel when I returned the car. Quite an experience! (It's a small company with limited staff.) Haha.

The company is managed entirely by an elderly lady. Overall, it's quite good.

The actual car rental provider was not Abell, not sure why.

The second driver fee was 30 NZD for 9 days, which felt reasonable. I've heard some companies charge per day. Snow chains were 80 NZD for the 9-day period.

Although they didn't receive the order from QEEQ, their attitude was excellent. When I couldn't find the pick-up location and called for help, the staff came out to find me. I must say, top-notch service.

They use new 2018 mx5 pictures on website but hire 2008 mx5 to me emmm

very old car

It's okay

The car was not roadworthy. It had 140,000 km on the clock - and was a piece of junk. I thought that I was hiring a new or near-to-new car but instead got something that was close to a coffin on wheels.

Good

The car rental company has Chinese-speaking staff who can provide detailed information about local road conditions and explain the car's features. They also give tips on how to operate and drive the vehicle.

The car has already driven 220,000 kilometers and the steering was off, which made driving very tiring as I had to constantly correct it.
