I agree to all rental terms and conditions.
RENTAL TERM
The term of this Car Rental Agreement runs from
the date and hour of vehicle pickup as indicated
just above the signature line at the bottom of
this agreement until the return of the vehicle
to Owner, and completion of all terms of this
agreement by both Parties. The estimated rental
term is as follows: Estimated end date: To be
advised by Hirer. The Parties may shorten or
extend the estimate term of rental by mutual
consent.
SCOPE OF USE
Renter will use the Rented Vehicle only for
routine business use from Monday to Saturday
and operate the Rented Vehicle only on properly
maintained roads and parking lots. Renter will
allow to use 1400 KM per week. Renter must send
a meter read every week to the owner. Any
kilometre over driven by renter must pay 0.40
cent per km. Owner has right to take the vehicle
return in his custody if renter not following
the terms and condition of contract. Any
penalties or fines will be transfer to renter
driving licence without notifying the driver.
Renter will comply with all applicable laws
relating to holding of licensure to operate the
vehicle and pertaining to operation of motor
vehicles. Renter will not sublease the Rental
Vehicle or use it as a vehicle for hire. Renter
will not allow any other person to operate the
Rented Vehicle unless identified here.
SECURITY DEPOSIT
Renter will be required to provide a security
deposit to Owner as agreed by both parties and
mentioned above be used in the event of loss or
damage to the Rental Vehicle during the term of
this agreement. In the event of damage to the
Rental Vehicle, Owner will apply this Security
Deposit to defray the costs of necessary repairs
or replacement. If the cost for repair or
replacement of damage to the Rental Vehicle
exceeds the amount of the Security Deposit,
Renter will be responsible for payment to the
Owner of the balance of this cost.
INSURANCE
a) Comprehensive cover: The Owner will provide
Comprehensive Insurance covering damage to the
Rental Vehicle at the commencement of this
Agreement, together with personal injury cover
for the Renter and other persons as provided
under the policy. If the Rental Vehicle is
damaged, lost, stolen, or otherwise involved in
an insurable event while in the Renter's
possession, the Renter agrees to pay any
applicable insurance excess (deductible), to
assign rights to collect insurance proceeds to
the Owner where required, and to cooperate fully
with the Owner and the insurer in respect of
any claim.
b) Immediate notification: The Renter must
notify the Owner in writing (email or SMS is
acceptable) of any accident, attempted theft,
theft, fire, malicious damage, or other incident
involving the Vehicle within twenty-four (24)
hours of the event, or as soon as reasonably
practicable where emergency services,
hospitalisation, or like circumstances prevent
earlier contact. Late notification may prejudice
insurance cover and does not limit the Renter's
liability to the Owner.
c) Payment of excess: Any insurance excess,
liability contribution, or other amount payable
by the Renter under this Agreement or the policy
in connection with an incident must be paid
within twenty-four (24) to forty-eight (48)
hours of the Owner's written request or issue
of a tax invoice (whichever is earlier), unless
the Owner expressly agrees a different period
in writing.
d) Hire charges continue: Until all amounts
referred to in paragraph (c) that are due have
been paid in full, the Renter's recurring hire
charges under this Agreement continue to accrue
without interruption and may be debited to the
Renter's nominated payment account in accordance
with any direct-debit or payment authority the
Renter has provided. The Renter acknowledges
that payment of hire charges and payment of
incident-related amounts are separate
obligations.
e) Indicative excess: A standard motor-vehicle
claim excess of $2,000 applies, together with
an additional excess in the range of $750 to
$1,000 (inclusive) where the primary driver is
under twenty-five (25) years of age at the date
of the incident, as determined by the insurer
or the Owner in line with the policy. The excess
actually payable may vary according to the
insurer, the driver's history, and the
circumstances of the loss; the Renter is
responsible for the amount advised by the Owner
or the insurer.
f) Registration, maintenance, and breakdowns:
The Owner will maintain registration, CTP
(green slip), and scheduled maintenance for
the Rental Vehicle. The Owner will arrange
breakdown assistance, manufacturer recalls,
and NRMA towing where applicable. The Renter
must contact the Owner as soon as practicable
following any incident. A replacement vehicle
may be offered where reasonably available,
typically within twenty-four (24) to
forty-eight (48) hours; where no substitute
vehicle is available, the Renter is responsible
for arranging alternative transport.

resignation of work and/or withdrawal of
contract will need 2 WEEKS written notice
in advance.

harmless the Owner for any loss, damage, or
legal actions against Owner because of Renter's
operation or use of the Rented Vehicle during
