Courtesy car with this car
Courtesy car: the 2008 MINI Cooper. Here is the car in plain words, and how renting one from CarmaCars works. When your adjuster approves a rental, we can bill your insurance company directly. After a collision, your insurer may pay for the rental once your adjuster approves it.
Reading the spec sheet
The powertrain to know here is the 1.6L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
By the EPA's combined rating of 7.4 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 22 litres. Expect about $12.95 per 100 km at our price setting.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Size and space
As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second. The trunk holds 170 litres by the EPA's count: about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
In our fleet
Put this car and your dates in a request, and we reply with an offer. Meanwhile, 6 similar cars are listed below. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Requirements
At pickup you must be 18 or older and carry your original G2 or G licence. No maximum age, and a daily fee only for drivers under 26. Your original licence, not a photo, comes with you to the handover.
You need one of three things in place for damage to the car: OPCF 27 on your own policy, a credit card that covers rentals, or the CarmaCars Protection Plan. The deposit is taken about 1 hour before pickup, never when you book. We confirm each driver's licence and identity the same way.
Getting the car booked
Booking is by request, never instant. You send the car and the dates, and a person at CarmaCars reviews it. We check the calendar and your details, then send you an offer with the total. Approve the offer to book the car. That is the moment you pay, not before.
Each car has its own page with its photos, its rates and its calendar. Short trips and long stays use the same request; the rate follows the length. The minimum notice is 2 hours, so an afternoon pickup can be requested in the morning.
