- Here are a couple of quotes that I received today.
-
- BAYSWATER CAR RENTAL (09 - 221 1122)
- 160 Adelaide Terrace, Perth
- Suzuki (3 door) $A20 per day - includes insurance & 100km per day
- Ford (small 4 door) $A26 per day - " "
- nb. These cars are about 1 year old.
-
- SMALL CAR RENTAL (09 - 361 4496)
- 14 Great Eastern Highway, Riverdale (suburb close to the domestic and
- international terminal)
- Ford (small 4 door) $A22 per day - includes insurance
- Holden (medium 4 door) $A30 per day - " "
-
- HAWTHORN HIRE CARS (09 - 446 922)
- Unit 12, 83 Hector Street, Osborne Park (15 minutes drive from city)
- small 4 door $A130 per week - includes insurance
- nb. This is more the rent-a-roughie type operation.
-
- Svein-Ivar, all operators require a deposit of between $A100 - $A200,
- and in some cases there may be an addition holiday surcharge for the
- christmas holiday period. During the holiday period there is a large
- demand on hire cars, consequently you may need to contract a few oper-
- ators to get a car at the price and period that you want.
-
- All operators are quick to ask whether the car will be used for metro-
- politan or country travel. Tarrifs for driving outside the Perth
- metropolitan area are higher.
