Andy’s tips on getting the best cars for formal hire in Brisbane
Just because you can’t afford to own a fabulous luxury car, doesn’t mean that you can’t treat yourself to a prestigious formal car hire in Brisbane. Formal car hire gives you the best of both worlds – your own run-around vehicle at home and the excitement of rolling up at a formal event in an awesome car! This can be your anniversary, birthday, retirement, wedding or engagement party, even your kid’s formal at the end of the year or a corporate event. There are plenty of reasons to hire a formal car, particularly when it makes you look rich and successful as you smoothly arrive at the curb! So if you want to impress all your friends when you arrive at your event, here’s Andy’s tips on getting the best deal on a formal car hire in Brisbane.
Make sure you book your formal car hire early!
As soon as you have the date of your event locked in, it’s time to organise your formal car hire booking. That’s because the longer you leave your booking, the less likely it is that you’ll be able to hire the car you want. If you aren’t sure of the exact date, you can still make a reservation which can be altered when you have the correct date. You might not get the exact car you want if you need to change your reservation close to your date, but it’s more than likely that you’ll be able to hire one of our other formal prestige cars for the event. However, if you leave it too late, you might not find any affordable options for formal car hire in Brisbane!
Don’t forget to check the insurance cover
Even if you only need a car overnight for your special event, it’s always best to have the right insurance locked in. That’s because if you have an accident, you’ll have to pay for all the damage without insurance. That can make for a very expensive night out! So at Andy’s Auto Rentals, all our formal car hires come with standard liabilities, but you can reduce these liabilities with our Gold Cover. This includes both a collision damage waiver and single vehicle waiver, also reducing your liability for hail damage (it does happen!), theft, and damage to windscreens, headlights and tyres. With so many people on the roads, it pays to have the right type of insurance when you organise a formal car hire in Brisbane.
Do you really need roadside assistance?
You might think that you don’t need to pay the additional $2.50 per day for roadside assistance and you might be right. What happens, however, if on the way to your event you get a flat tyre? Or you lock your keys in the car and are stuck at 2am in the morning in a car park with no way home? That’s why roadside assistance is a good idea even for very short hires, because it’s better to be safe than sorry! So when looking for the best formal car hire deals in Brisbane, always make sure that they also offer roadside assistance.
Is the designated driver over 21 years of age?
In general, anyone who hires or drives a car in Australia needs to be at least 21 years of age. Some operators will hire to people less than 21 years of age, but if they do, you’ll need to pay an additional surcharge. At Andy’s Auto Rentals we actually have some cars that require the drivers and hirers to be older than 21 years of age. For example, if you want to hire our Mini Cooper or Ford Mustang GT Coupe, you need to be at least 30 years of age. You’ll find the minimum age for Andy’s Auto Rental cars for formal car hire in Brisbane on each vehicle’s page on our website. However, don’t forget that to hire any vehicle, you also need a valid driver’s license or international licence.
