I have used SIXT twice now and it has been a great experience each time. Tried out one of their electric vehicles which was great, with free charging from chargefox chargers which saves you dollars as well.

Paid a tiny bit more to get with Sixt instead of cheaper competitors, and it was well worth it. We got an MG SUV, while I'll reserve my opinions around MG's, but the car itself was super clean, handover process at the counter was quick and easy. The lady at the Launceston counter was super helpful, asked where we were going and which route, and gave some good tips. Would be using Sixt from now on!

The car was fine but Sixt advertises a Launceston City address which in fact they don’t have- it’s their depot at the airport.
Having noted this to the team upon dropping the car off at the depot Richard had no hesitation in driving us back into the City and was very helpful. So thank you Richard and team. Hopefully the Sixt head office will correct the description or source a city location. 5 stars for the local team.
