Happy 2004, 808-motoring :smile: . He was wondering about the possibilities of...

*Accessibility and economics of shipping his MINI from island to island.

-or-

*Renting a MINI in the islands

Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Big Isle, & others --> any word on the above please?

Thanks, gang

I think a MINI could be rented on Maui...but for a big chunk 'o change....200 clams I think

 

I think MINIs are available for rent on Oahu as well.

 

dollar rent-a-car has 5-speed coopers for rent. i think they run between 120-150/day, though! they're considered "exotic" cars in the rental car business .

 

Thank you, Kohu'ulaMINI , The_Beastmaster , and mini-t

Nothing exotic about the MINI. $120 - $150 a day? All you have to do is rent it out for 2 days and their monthly payment is taken care of.

 

Those companys do not rent them any more. If you would like info on MINI rentals please contact me...Justin 808-479-9430

 

or i'll offer mine for rent with a $1000 deposit and $120/day. if you rent the car for 3 or more consecutive days, i'll throw in a free MINI of Hawaii Warrior T-Shirt, 3 MINI midas tshirts, 10 MINI maverick collector card sets, 2 used MINI shirts, 1 pair of MINI slippers, 1 MINI plush doll, 2 MINI pens, and a minikahuna bobblehead.

of course, you must be over 25 years old with a valid driver's license, insurance, and a major credit card.

 

mini't,

You left out- knows how to drive stick!

The shipping cost is prohibitive not to mention the time and risk to the car.
1-2 weeks shipping each way with $960 charge per way.

Hey I could start a MINI rental business with my MCS, Latka's, The_Beastmaster's mom's, and mini-t's MINIs.
I call it "Rent a Super Pooper". Cheap. $100 a day. What a great idea for some young (I'm old) business savy person.

 

Many thanks, The_Beastmaster, ESOTERIC, mini-t, and minihune!

I'll let him know now ...

 

oh yeah, intentional abuse of the clutch that results in clutch slippage is subject to a $2000 fee.

"Rent a Super Pooper?" i'm young and semi business savvy -- we can work as a team, minihune. since no rental agencies offer MINIs, we'll have a great thing to offer....and certainly a nice assortment of MP's and MPS's for potential customers.

Do you think people would pay $100/day to rent a vintage mini?
