A rental while yours is in the shop
CarmaCars does not do this work; you keep driving while the shop has your car. We deliver a rental to you, by the day, at our usual rates.

The Lotus Esprit: Mechanic
Mechanic for your Lotus Esprit: arranged with a trusted shop, never done by CarmaCars, with a rental if you need one. Routine maintenance and repairs are done by a mechanic at a shop we trust, not by CarmaCars.
Your Esprit and the shop
Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed.
How the arrangement works
We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
A car meanwhile
If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Questions to ask the shop
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask the shop to explain the repair in plain words before you agree. Ask if the shop needs the car for a full day or only a few hours.
Good habits for your car
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Keep the fuel tank above a quarter in winter.
Talk to a person
One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
Request mechanic
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
