Default Car Hire

Is there a good but little-known car hire firm in Dubai?

What I mean is, not the usual overpriced Avis, Dollar, etc, but a smaller one that will do a good deal for a short-term hire (up to a week) for a decent car.

Thanks in advance.

no, you get a really cool car, beetle, mini, beemer or a vw touareg...but they are branded with advertising...so it's the advertisers who are picking up the cost not you...

Hmm, interesting concept.... I'm not sure that the Dean would fit into the mini or a beetle, tho, his legs are kinda long....

Do you have to be unspeakably glamorous to hire such a vehicle? I mean, you wouldn't want your brand to be associated with some butt-ugly fat bird with big hair playing 80's music - unless you were advertising Sheila's Wheels or some such?????

not for the short term lets, i'm not sure how they do that...but they do annual lets for "brand ambassadors" and they need to fit with the brand...but some brands may be looking for a butt-ugly fat bird with big hair playing 80s music, who knows...

Hmmm. And do they do schemes like that here in the UK? I mean, I could be a great brand ambassador for Zonda, I'm sure of it???????

Thanks for that. Booked it with Inmotion.

I just told them I was a butt-ugly fat bird (etc etc) and they did me a really good deal on a Mini Cooper...............

Brilliant!
