The car was meant to be the equivalent of a Toyota Vitz but it was a very cheap and low spec vehicle. No digital interface and central locking was managed from inside the drivers door. A/C was poor and interior was very old fashioned. Not value for money compared to a recent Toyota.
It was a great choice to rent a car in Fiji as it gave us total freedom to get around. Taxis are plentiful but also become expensive when traveling between villages and tourist destinations. The Nadi Europcar team was awesome and the whole experience was hassle-free.
No shuttle or Euro Staff at the airport to pick us up from the airport to the rental location. Did not Fiji local sim so it took a while to get that sorted. Once, I got there, the car was not ready for pick up. They said 7 mins but it took 30-60 mins to get the car.
Got to desk to pick up car and there were no cars available. Budget tried to take us to another company counter to get them to change to their service, but they had nothing available. Had to wait over an hour (after already being there around 30mins) until one came up we could take. Car was good though, reliable and clean with minimal wear.
Being forced to drop the vehicle at Suva airport instead of Suva was a pain in the bum. We decided to use the local buses for the remainder of the trip due to difficulty around the pickup and drop off situation. You missed out of 10 days of large car rental.
