Cheap price compared to other companies,I can now see why though, I wouldn't recommend this company.
The vans are very old, and have multiple problems - our door wouldn't open and shut on the first day, and the company did a dodgy fix up job which only got us through for 1 week of our 3 weeks journey. Our clutch on the side door wouldn't release with door handle, and lucky did a shit fix. Hence we had multiple times of becoming frustrated trying to open and shut door. Then the other door you couldn't open from inside of the van. Our fridge which we paid extra for stopped working - leaving us having to pay extra for ice every few days. In addition with about 1 week left on our journey our electronic system would cut in and out and effect the windows - this meant we could only do windows up and down when radio was on. When the radio/electronic system cut out so to did the ability to power the windows - left us multiple times at destinations waiting for the electronic system to kick in, often waiting 20+ min. Bare minimal cutlery and pans. When we thought we had a crack in our windscreen, we did the right thing and notified the company, in which we took the van to their provider, whom explained that the crack was an older crack and had already been filled in, and Lucky rental didn't sound convinced on the phone when we reported what was said by their provider, there response was that we would have wait till we got back to the base site but we would likely have to get the whole screen fixed. Need to update vans and be better off making them all self contained (on road we saw multiple cars the exact same as our small camper and smaller who were self contained. Also need to more assistive in regards to DOC passes - they are passing on incorrect information to customers - we were not a self contained camper but were assured by a Rankers representative that we could use these passes. When i called multiple times and email - they were very unhelpful in this regard
