Long Term Car Rental Price

Hi,

I wanted to quickly check how much it costs to rent a car long term on a monthly basis.

I need a car in a city in QLD I fly in for work for a period of 1-12 months (unsure about my work contract length at this stage).

It will be a bit silly to buy a car and then immidiately having to sell it fast, at the same time short-term rental is a bit pricy.

If anyone has been in similar situation, could you tell me how much it could cost me per month or week, what are the cheapest options and alternatives.

Thank you.

    Not very helpful! If 6-12 months, buy cheap Corolla/Getz/Excel to get around in. If 1 month, hire a car.

  • How about one of those pay by the hour cars? What do you need the car for driving from hotel - > office or are you going to customer sites?

    • Commuting on night shifts and shopping twice a week. So, I need a car about maybe 3 times a week.

      • Try go get maybe. They usually have signup bonuses. Eg $20 off your first ride or referral bonuses (dibs :P). Try to rent somewhere that has a few of them nearby then you can pick and choose based on deals.

  • Maybe better to join a car share scheme. That way you pay when you use it.

    • Where can I read or learn about that?
