What Is On A Self Drive Car Pickup Checklist?
Four things: the outside, the inside, the basics under the bonnet and the paperwork.
Outside The Car
- Walk around once and look for scratches, dents and cracked lights.
- Check all four tyres for wear and low pressure.
- Look at the windscreen for chips or cracks.
- Make sure the number plates and lights are clean.
Inside The Car
- Seats, mats and boot should be clean, with no smoke or food smell.
- Steering, gear knob and door handles should be wiped down.
- Turn on the AC and check that it cools within a minute or two.
- Check the dashboard for warning lights after you start the engine.
Fuel, Documents And Contacts
- Note the fuel level and take a photo of the gauge.
- Check that the registration and insurance papers are in the car.
- Save the support number before you leave.
How Should You Photograph The Car?
Take a slow video walk-around and a few close-up photos of any marks, with the time stamp on. Include the odometer and fuel gauge. Share them with the rental team on WhatsApp so both sides have the same record.

What Should You Do If Something Is Wrong?
Raise it before you drive. Ask for the issue to be noted, the car to be cleaned or a swap. Do not accept a car with a warning light on.
