WhipCar: Rent the car next door
Save money and time and help people out. I got this email from Tom Wright this morning:
… We are the world’s first neighbour-to-neighbour car rental company (we pair car owners who don’t always use their car with sensible drivers in their area who need a car to use). The idea is that rather than use car rental or pay to join a car club – you simply rent a neighbours car. We are free to join for participating owner’s and drivers and take away the need to put anymore cars on the road. Owner’s make money whenever they are not using their car…
We are only 4 months old but already in 300 towns and cities across the UK.
Take a look at their site, WhipCar.com. I hope this spreads to the US.
From their site:
Find your perfect car to use. Sort by car type, price, and location.
