My wife is flying home today and was going to borrow a car of a friend. This has just fallen over so Im looking for someone to rent her a car . Or maybe a dealer will sell us something with a guaranteed buy back price.Looked at rental car companies but all there cheapies are gone.West Auckland would be preferable.Looking for a good safe reliable , unmodified 4 cyl with good rubber.

If you buy a $1000 car now, it wont be too hard to sell it again in 3 weeks for the same amount you paid for it.

Looking at the moment, I hate buying cars sight unseen.

Flying "home" today. What do you mean by that! Who needs the car and what is the budget for the three weeks--given you mention "cheapies" not being available! I prolly know a westy caryard that can help you out -If I could just remember what yard it was

All the rental companies have cars advertised from $20 per day but they never have them available. Thinking arount $500 for the three weeks. We will fully insure it , My wife is 50 plus with a good driving history and will be the only driver until I join her on the 17th.
I will get my wife to phone him in the morning,,does he have a name

When my daughter comes back to NZ for a couple weeks R&R, this is what I would do. I would probably put it back on Trademe with $1 reserve. Still makes it a cheap rental.
