Redspot is easy to book and the different costs structures ie top dog, are simple to understand and review. Most recently hired a car from Perth Airport, it's a long walk to the booth, but the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Sydney staff may need a little more training in customer service.
Redspot had the best quote inside the terminal and gave a free upgrade. We certainly got value for money

Service was good and professional on pick up, wouldnt recommend the Mitsubishi Mirage as a hire car as its a guttless piece of crap. Returning car was easy enough except the next day they called me to see where their vehicle was. Sorry guys it wouldnt fit in my bag and onto my international flight.
best service handsdown very friendly people and compensate on any mishaps without fail
Car was reliable. I had two car seats 1 for my eight year old & 1 for my 4 year old. I did intend on only paying $130 for my rental as that was the amount on my bill but added on insurance & then ended up paying $260 which did interrupt my budget. I also did the prepay fuel option of $22 & my fuel only dropped 1-2 bars certainly not $22 worth.
Love Red Spot! Great customer service with friendly, helpful staff. Great value. The car was clean and ready to go. I love the option to pre-purchase a half tank of fuel, so no stressing trying to find a servo in an unfamiliar airport area. Red Spot has become my first choice for car rentals.
The service is great; it was easy and quick. There were no surprises with the bill which deserves absolute full points. I'll be using them again.
Easy check in to pick up vehicle, likewise a breeze when dropping the car back. Vehicle performed perfectly, but was quite noisy in the front suspension on rough surfaces. Nice and quiet on a smooth road. Will definitely use Redspot again.
On arrival at Sydney airport Branch of Redspot I was met by a lovely young man who explained all and then took me to the car - loaded my luggage and ensured that I was comfortable with the workings of the car and off I went. On return days later the service was equally of a high standard, dropped off and into the airport to board my plane. The car was clean, relatively new and economical. First time using their service and will definitely use them again.
