I rented a Pontiac Wave from Practicar (aka Rent-a-Wreck) for nine days while recently visiting Nanaimo, and was very happy. The rental included 50km per day for a total of 450km (of which I only used 270), and the total price, including all taxes, was $212. This was significantly less than I could find elsewhere. The car was clean, responsive, and other than the occasional squeak while braking, I experienced no mechanical problems. The staff was polite and attentive. When I picked up the vehicle, the attendant (Corrina) was great, and she was very thorough in noting the existing scratches and bumps. I will definitely be renting from them again on my next trip to Nanaimo.

Extremely friendly, helpful and flexible! Good prices and no hidden costs. The lady even checked the ferry schedule for me and gave me a ride to the ferry station. Very friendly and helpful, highly recommended. It is quite cheap, because apparently used vehicles are rented. Absolutely fair and without hidden costs.

Do NOT rent a car from this place! Their cars are beyond wrecks. I requested a GPS. As I drove away, getting more and more lost, the GPS did not help..it was in German. I had to go back for a second GPS, and it did not work. They had no more. The car was making a constant beeping noise, which the rental place denied. In addition, they were incredibly rude. VERY unprofessional. The woman who rented to me said "Ill skip the inspection. The car is very dinged up. Just bring it back without the door hanging off." Now, they are charging me $700 for a dent that I did not put in it. STAY AWAY!! It is not worth the savings to deal with this place.

Steve and his staff are very friendly and accommodating. I live on an island in Nanaimo Harbour and use their services usually as least once a week. Often I have given them only a few hours notice and theyve always had a car ready for my arrival. Theyre conveniently located just a short 5 min. walk from the boat basin. Their cars are always clean and reliable. Theyve been wonderful to deal with since Ive been living in this great city.

Got picked up and dropped to ferry (Departure bay, I think). Car had a fair amount of minor damage outside, as long as you can look past this they are cheap and have good customer service, had no issues when returning. They also gave us a pass for the provincial park as we were going to Tofino so saved us 20 bucks a day. Next time I am on the island I will use them again.

Customer Service was top notch. When Budget told me I needed my own insurance to rent a vehicle from them I walked two blocks down the road to Practicar and not only got a way better deal, But I was not charged for bringing the car back 30 minutes late or for the extra 60 km we drove it. this is where i will be renting my next car in nanaimo

The car was just fine, and trouble free. Staff members were cheerful and helpful. All-in-all, a positive experience hiring a car from Practicar, and Ill definitely turn to them again the next time Im in Nanaimo.

Customer service was nice, they picked us up at the airport and were very friendly, they gave us some good suggestions of things to do while in the area. Our car was clean and reliable.

We rented a great little car for our vacation and both the car and the customer service we received was top notch. I would higly recommend Practicar for your car rentals in Nanaimo, BC.
