Car NOT as advertised

Hired a car from Jucy in Brisbane. Jucy advertised this as a “Toyota Corolla or similar”, with an accompanying picture of a current/late model Corolla. The reality? We were handed the keys to a 2016 Hyundai Accent with nearly 300,000kms on the clock – and it looked like it (bear in mind these models stopped being sold in Australia after 2019). Large chunks of paint missing, signs of having been in accidents (bumper panels not fitting flush), and generally very tired looking. It also came with a mix of cheap ‘n’ very nasty tires (Winrun on the front and Haida – never even heard of this brand – on the rear) that were so bad it was actually very tricky to pull away from a stop in the rain without spinning the front wheels. To boot, the wipers were well past their best and actually made things worse when turned on – the car was borderline roadworthy and certainly outright dangerous in the wet. Oh, and obviously no mod cons such as sat nav or even a reversing camera. And the cost was only marginally lower than bigger, more reputable companies like Avis and Budget. I’ll never try to save money by renting from Jucy again and I’d urge you to do the same after reading about this experience.
