I swore I'd never rent a car again, but after the missus said we're going to Broome in May, I can't get any press cars sent up there, obviously.

Who's got the best deal for renting a car there? We'd need a baby seat for it, too.

Just a small to mid sized car. We're not carting luggage around, or going 4WDing, so just a runabout, really.

Cheers.

Haha you serious?
For someone who has the open ability to travel across the globe and road test any exotic supercar there is, im sure you wont have any trouble organising a simple rental in your home state.

You would think it would be that simple, but it's not.

We usually travel to where the cars are.

They're not in Broome....

Cheers mate.

Joe - thanks, will call them and find out.

Lukian - to be clear, I know there are rental companies. I just want to get the best deal, and thought someone here might be able to hook me up.
