The fastest car IN THE WORLD!!!
A Nissan Altima that Enterprise wanted me to drive so badly that they offered to me for only $3/day more than insurance was going to pay for me to drive a Versa.
So far I’ve only driven it 13 miles of almost exclusively highway. I can say that my attempt at a highway merge involved a lot of engine noise with very little increase in forward momentum.

Welcome to Nissan Enterprise Rent-a-Car. I swear every rental is a Nissan nowadays.

They had one Hyundai, but I didn’t fit in it very well. They also had a Town and Country minivan.
This was just a small location attached to a body shop so they had less than 10 cars.

But it has a Sport button. That means it’s a 4 door sports coupe or something like that.

Sandy goes into the body shop next Monday for three weeks for a new sill, rear driver side door and rear bumper after a Volvo tried to occupy the same space as Sandy was already in. After waiting nine weeks for parts and being told ‘we are currently experiencing a higher workload than usual and some are taking a little longer than we’d normally like’.
Then get told all their courtesy cars are Ford KA+s.
So we’ll have one of these shit boxes for three weeks.

I had to wait longer than normal to get my car in. Nasty storms earlier this year were a boon to body shops.
We’ll see how the parts ordering process goes. They’ll supposedly get it in tomorrow and see what all they need.

Hopefully you’re not in the penalty box too long.

They should have a note in your system that you get an automatic upgrade; from shit-box to meh-mobile.

To be honest I’m getting that I just don’t care. Sandy has bad memories because she came six days before my mum passed, it was the car she liked more than I did, but the one I wanted was going to take months longer to be built so I settled to keep her happy as she insisted it be an estate for her and my step-father’s wheelchairs on the one p ossible occasion a year I’d have both in the car.

It was the second knock she’s had in four months at the time.
It happens.

They had a Town and Country? How old is their fleet?
