Nissan Primastar
October 25, 2023

Opel Corsa
July 19, 2023

Pros: The service was poor, the advertisment was not Ccurated. They provided us with a old car with no air con working in 37 degree heat. The car had dents and was scratched everywhere. One of the car passenger door wasn't working. Never again i am booking from abbycar.

Cons: The pick up was poor, we had to wait 30 mins for the staff to pick us up. Upon arrival to the rental service the car was in very poor condition.
Hungary
Opel Corsa
July 5, 2023

Pros: I didn't like anything. maybe it's that with the separate insurance taken out there, you didn't have to worry if something went wrong with the car. but it was terribly expensive.

Cons: who picked me up at the airport raced the car to the office, which was outside the airport. very dangerous and terrifying. the office is a small door in a small street. in the office this person was rushing with paperwork and was upset when we asked something. he explained the options wrong in the first place because the deposit was not included in the option he told. we chose the most expensive option, and after we wanted to withdraw the payment, there was no helpfulness, he said then that we l

Opel Corsa
May 16, 2023

Pros: Terrible company. Car was in a terrible condition. Filthy dirty and the car was not maintained. Battery light kept coming on and gears didn’t work properly. Got given the car in less than half a tank. Disgusting service
Spain
Opel Corsa
May 4, 2023

Pros: El coche está sucio, lleno de golpes y muy viejo.No se podía bajar la ventanilla del copiloto porque está rota, tenía ceniza en los ceniceros y hacia un ruido horrible

Cons: Que tuviera que pagar por no tener tarjeta de crédito 140€ y que me retuviera 400€ por seguro a todo riesgo cuando ya había pagado el doble del precio del coche por ese seguro.. Creo que si no tienes tarjeta de crédito deberían coger una débito y pagar ese dineral por ese motivo
United Kingdom
VW Up
November 21, 2022

Pros: The representative was always available to talk and was quick to answer. After the car wouldn't turn on a 2nd time he gave us another car for the stay and everything went fine after that. checkout was super quick and easy too.

Cons: The first car provided was a bit smelly and it was not very good. The days we rented this car was raining a lot and I think that caused issues to the battery of the car. For 2 times the car wouldn't turn on and we had to get the representative to come. The 2nd time we have us another car and after that everything went smoothly

VW Up
April 28, 2022

Cons: I am having difficulties receiving my credit back. The car was in a bad condition with scrapes and cigarette burns on the seats when I hired it. When I returned it the car had a few additional very small scrapes on the rear bumper (which was already scraped). I feel like I am being charged unfairly by the company. We have come to some sort of agreement but I am still waiting to receive the money back.

United Kingdom
Toyota Aygo
September 3, 2021

Pros: Nothing at all, we were worried all week the car would break down and we were sure they wouldn't help us if it did

Cons: 1. They weren't Abby car they were 'Target'. 2. they didn't have an office at the airport (just a garage 10 minutes away) and didn't meet us on time 3. The car was dirty and had lots of defects, but we had no choice but to take it. 4. They did not inspect the car where we dropped it of so they didn't sign the doc to agree the car was in good condition. 5. They told us we weren't insured and tried to sell us £150 worth of extra insurance. 6. They haven't responded to any of my messages since.

Toyota Auris
August 18, 2021

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Nothing
United Kingdom
Toyota Aygo
June 17, 2021

Pros: Very cheap, especially if you have a second driver.

Cons: The car had dents on every pannel. However, on the plus side they didn't seem concerned if you were to add to those dents within reason (we didn't). It took some time to get picked up after phoning at the airport, and the office was about 15 minutes away due to traffic.
