Our Runabout Fleet

Just Looking for Something to Get From A-B?


Our Runabout fleet offers the most economical solution for straightforward transport. These are our older cars, not for everyone, but perfect if you simply need a reliable vehicle to get from A to B. They are mechanically sound and reliable, providing a cost-effective option for basic transportation needs. However, as these are our well-loved ex-rental cars, we don't guarantee the functionality of non-essential features like the radio or air conditioning.


Runabouts are ideal for local commuting, with a recommended 150-kilometer radius of Estepona 29680. If you have a breakdown outside of this area, you may not be covered by the breakdown assistance policy. This fleet is available in small, medium, and large sizes, and all feature manual transmission.


  • Prices start from €324 per month. Remember, our prices are PER MONTH, not per week like other companies.
  • Security / Damages Deposit: €350 (refundable).
  • Minimum rental age: 21 years old and must have held a full driving license for a minimum of two years.

Our Pledge


With Purple Cars, you get absolute clarity. We pledge that the price you see is the price you pay on the day of collection.


This means no hidden fees, no extra cover, and no surprise insurance costs. You just need to handle the fuel.

Important Rental Information


Please remember that Purple Cars specializes exclusively in long-term rentals (30 days and beyond).


What's Included with Every Rental:


To ensure your peace of mind, every Purple Cars rental includes:


  • Comprehensive Insurance: Full insurance with an excess amount, providing robust coverage for your vehicle.
  • Free Extra Driver: Share the driving with a complimentary additional driver.
  • Courtesy Car: In the unlikely event of a breakdown, a courtesy car will be provided to keep you on the move.
  • Full 24-Hour Roadside Assistance: Enjoy an upgraded breakdown and recovery policy provided by our partners, RACE, available 24/7 across Spain.


Deposits & Fees:


  • Security / Damages Deposit: A security deposit is required at the beginning of each rental. This deposit is fully refundable within 14 business days of the rental end, provided the vehicle is returned in the same condition as taken, accounting for fair wear and tear. (Specific amounts per fleet are listed above).


  • One Time Reservation Fee: All bookings are subject to a one time, non-refundable reservation fee of €48 which is taken at the time of booking. This fee secures your booking and includes a free extra driver. Should Purple Cars have to cancel the rental for any reason, this fee will be returned.


  • Monthly Service Fee: All rentals are subject to a monthly fee of €24.95. This fee covers all card charges and subscription costs.


  • Fuel Policy: Our fuel policy is simple: simply return the car with the same amount of fuel as when you took it. We do not offer refunds for unused fuel. Please make sure to check which fuel is the correct one for the vehicle; this will be highlighted on the paperwork we provide you with.


Speeding / Parking Fees:


If Purple Cars receives a speeding or parking fine related to your rental, you will be charged the full amount of the fine plus a €34 administration fee. The fine will then be reissued in your name. Please be aware that your card held on file will be automatically charged without prior notice for any traffic infractions to prevent the fine from doubling. Our office is unable to provide exact details of the fines; any dispute must be taken up directly with the issuing authority, not Purple Cars.
