RENTAL CAR QUESTIONS
We will always try to provide you with the car you booked; at Karam Rent a Car you don’t make a reservation for a category, but you reserve a specific brand and model of a car.
However; in unforeseen circumstances, such as
- if this car will be returned too late by the previous renter, or
- if this car is damaged, have small technical problems or is declared total loss caused by a car accident, originated during the previous rental
then in this case we are forced to replace your booked car for a car in the same category or higher category.
The mileage limit is as following:

Our rental cars are mostly delivered with empty tank, sometimes with another fuel level. Our policy is to return the rental car with the same level of fuel as you received it.
Don’t you want your car to be delivered without fuel? In this case you can add an amount for fuel to your car rental reservation. You can choose to order the following amounts of fuel
– € 25,00 (approximately half a tank of fuel; this is depending on the exchange rate of the Turkish Lira, the chosen car and if your car needs gasoline or diesel.)
– € 50,00 (approximately a full tank of fuel or an almost full tank of fuel; this is depending on the exchange rate of the Turkish Lira, the chosen car and if your car needs gasoline or diesel.)
We always provide you with the purchase receipt of the fuel, so that you can be sure that your ordered amount of fuel has actually been spent on petrol or diesel. We also always convert the Euros into Turkish Lira according to the current Euro/TL rate on the day the car is delivered to you. That is our fair policy.
