**LIMITED TIME DISCOUNT - DOWN FROM $59 / DAY** Meet my beautiful compatriot, Giovanni. Giovanni is a top of the line, sport optioned Mazda MX-5, is a fun and easy drive, a 5 minute walk from the closest train station and a beautiful overall experience. Yes, Giovanni a hard top convertible, with automatic retracting roof to fully flex your head scarf or wavy locks. Giovanni has a BOSE surround sound stereo, which provides amazing volume and depth. Amazing, road hugging performance with incredible handling, a genuine joy to drive by yourself or that special someone. How much space does Giovanni have? There is more than enough room in the boot for a few overnight bags or shopping, yet zips around like a classic sport car. Giovanni is also the perfect car for long trips, with easy to use steering wheel controls. The parking sensors make this already nimble car a breeze to park in tight spaces. Enjoy the figure hugging leather sports seats, bring your friends to take a joy ride along Beach Rd or use it for a holiday down to Portsea or the Great Ocean Road.

Muhammad
December 2023

Air conditioning was not working when it was advertised as "has air conditioning". Cruise control was not working hence on long straight highways it could have been more enjoyable. I own a Mazda hence I know how to operate the cruise control. When I texted Sam for advise, there was no reply. Support from owner was not there. Otherwise the MX5 as a car is a joy to drive. Rental rate was more economical than the later models available for rent. But still if things don't work, it should be advertised as it is because it is misleading. Rental is cheaper not because of special pricing, it is because some of the basic functions are not working.

Response from Sam

Hi Muhammad, thanks so much for borrowing and sorry that you had trouble with the air conditioning. You are the first to report this issue so I will have it looked into, and apologies for not being in touch, I am overseas so there is no phone connection to call. Glad the car went well otherwise and that it was a pleasure to drive. Thanks for the review. Sam

I arrived to the vehicle and there was no key in the lockbox, I then contacted the owner who never bothered to call me back and I have still been charged 38 dollars for a car I never drove.

Response from Sam

Hey Cian, Thanks for borrowing and so sorry about your experience. The key was not returned by the previous borrower and therefore was not left in the lockbox. I didn't know this at the time and have since had the key collected from the borrower and returned to the lockbox. Please request a refund for this trip / for the trip to be cancelled as you obviously shouldn't have to pay for this. So sorry this has happened. This is unusual. Sam
