Hi 4freflyer,

I'm sorry to hear that you are not completely satisfied with the vehicle provided for your hire.

If you would like to send me a private message with your reservation number I'll be happy to have a look into this for you.

Thanks, Jess.

I've booked LDAR with Sixt pickup/return at FRA and got instead of advertised 5er GT (530/535) the 4er (420 diesel). Advertised description below.

For me it was a long week on professional side (arrived at FRA on Sunday) and worked long hours with customers, so at pickup time, I've noticed GT and felt like booth was pretty small for 3 of us, had to put one bag on the back seat, etc. Drove to Stuttgart and on the road car didn't behave like 3l engine at all... talking from private experience driving 3l beamer on daily basis.

Only in Stuttgart I've realized why we all felt like car is tiny as for 5er... as it is in fact 4er GET and weak as for 3 or 3.5l engine as it's 2l and probably 4 cylinders instead of 6 cylinders as it should be for LDAR.

This is highly disappointing from multiple angles, especially that I used to just rent car within selected class from any companies earlier using Kayak.com or any other broker and went directly for Sixt rental to get the car I wanted based on earlier recommendations here. Yet... I got highly disappointed.

Any thoughts from your side what could I do upon return? I have no time to exchange car tomorrow in Stuttgart but feel like cheated big time. This even prompted me to create account here.

Thanks,
4freflyer
