Iceland was wonderful- this was our 3rd visit. The Suzuki car was ok. It was cheaper because it was older and rather high mileage, but it gave no trouble. The pop up tent on to was a big problem: the mattress and sheets were wet at one end. The seal on the lid was broken and it had rained hard. We could not use it at all. But by day 4, with no rain, it was somewhat drier. The rental team at the depot refused to listen, pronounced the kit dry and ok. Which it probably was by then. But we had to sleep in the car instead as it was not useable to us. So 3 out of 10 on that rental

We rented a Suzuki Jimny with manual gearbox and roof tent. No problems with the car, it was clean and in working order. Unfortunately the tent was very dirty, inside there were cigarette burn marks, and a lot of mold. We had to clean the tent completely before we could use it, it was not hygienic.

We booked a 2018 Suzuki Jimny, but got one from 2001. When we afsked about it at pick up, the staff said this was one of the last cars built in 2018 before the model got a redesign. However, the vin number clearly showed the car was from 2001, which made it a very poor driving experience. So, use Icerental 4X4 if you want an old beat-up car. This was the major problem among many smaller problems with the car and roof tent, such as a shaking steering wheel and a moldy mattress.

Not at all..this big, heavy and expensive american car needs tons of gasoline, had bad brakes and is slow when you try to start driving. The heating system is very strange too....but the worst thing was that we hat twice wheels with a hole in it. We had to call the macanic twice, thow I didnt drive on bad F roads. Glad I could call the ADAC from Germany to get fast help....the broken tire I had to pay for my selfself. In addition we waited at the airport to be taken to the office, but the driver wasnt there on time, so I had to call him and we waited for another 30min. To sum up...that was a very expensive and annoying holiday with that car. The Island was great!

We did receive an older model of the car than we had booked. However, we realised this too late and found not turn back. The car was OK. The camping gear rent together with the car was of very low quality. Definitely recommend to rent that somewhere else.

Fantastic!
The Suzuki Jimny is a good vehicle to explore Iceland, it does well on un-paved roads and it’s sturdy and solid. It doesn’t go very fast but it’s not a big issue in Iceland. The main issue was with the roof tent when it rains the mattress inside gets a bit wet. All in all it’s a great vehicle to explore Iceland.

Island ist immer für Abenteuer gut. Der Wagen wurde an Tag 2 getauscht, weil die Handbremse versagte. bei Auto 2 lösten sich am Tag 4 die Radmuttern hi re und 2 Radbolzen brachen dabei ab. Eine Notfallwerkstatt konnte am Sa Nachm notdürftig die beiden fehlenden ersetzen. Am Mo dann Tausch aller 5 Radmuttern. Das Auto hat uns dann um die ganze Insel gebracht.

It was terrible, I’ve never drove a vehicle that dangerous. The steering-wheel was shaking, it was almost impossible the go straight. I am extremely disappointed with this renting, it was literally exhausting to drive. Very bad braking. In addition to that we would have like that the stairs was attachable outside, because when it’s raining your wet stairs go onto the mattress.

It is a very nice and good car for these road conditions on Iceland. It is a very nice idea to meet this car with a roof tent. We booked this car online and it was so easy. Very kindly shuttle service and the handover of the vehicle was easy We will book again via northbound or Icerental 4x4.

cannot give a comparison to other companies. My expectations may have been too high. But for me the vehicle was too expensive by its standards. But I don't know at milage Display from 384000km what to expect. Stone chips in the windshield, engine warning Wiper system not properly. Unlocking and locking not properly. But it drove us where we wanted too.

Our experience was positive, our 4xr fullfiled our expetanios. There were few details we would like to point out. Firstly there was an empty windshell fluid in a front and back container. Secondly one of the camp chairs was fairly unstable, because of nearly broken leg leg. Lastly, travel gas we got was half empty and it only lasted for a week. Our trip was 14 days, we needed to buy a travel gas at a camping store. The staff was professional but no kind or even polite.

Throughout the 2 weeks we spent touring the Ring Road and making side-excursions, our experience with the 2019 Dacia Duster from Icerental 4x4 was very good. It proved to be a solid, capable and comfortable vehicle, with ample room for over 6' drivers. The vehicle was clean and fully functional. Fuel consumption was as expected. There was an issue early on with the roof tent hydraulics but Icerental 4x4 staff were communicative and arranged to have that repaired as we travelled. Our request to extend the rental was efficiently handled on the road through email. There were no hidden or surprise charges at the end of our trip. Would do it again without hesitation.

Car was perfect. like we know it from other trips. Roof tent was not checked or the company does not get the information of the customers. While heavy rain it gets wet parts at the roof and one time the matrace gets wet while driving in the part where the tent will be closed. They gave us a small amount back for the inconveniance. At the end we had luck that the weather got not much more bad as it was. So the the numbers are a combination of car and tent

The kind of vehicle with the rooftent was perfect respect to our expectations, but it was really old and worn. It was pretty undriveable (or even dangerous) in wind condition (that means always in Iceland!). The rooftent conditions were ok, but bedding and pillows were unpresentable.

Wir brauchten 3 autos das erste hatte ein elektrisches problem mit dem allrad. Da kann niemand was dafür dieser wurde uns anstandslos ausgetauscht (3h hin und 3h zurück) das auto das gebracht wurde, hatte ein defektes radlager dies ist völlig daneben den wenn man nur ein bischen ahnung von autos hat sollte dies auf einer kurzen probefahrt merken und nicht 3h fahre. Ich also automech. hatte es nach 200m schon gemerkt und selbst meine freundin die keine ahnung hat fand das geräusch extrem laut. Auch dieses fahrzeug wurde anstandslos ausgetauscht wieder 6h fahrt für den vermieter. Der 3 hatte hinten komplett flache reifen aber das war uns dann egal. Fazit, gesellschaft bietet fahrzeuge an die in teils sehr schlechten uustand sind.
