WideSky Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Yep, Mark Turford rents used cars - 333 398 9045 or your can email him markturford@yahoo.com; he's pretty busy. Used a car for about 6 weeks then had him help us buy a car. Great guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kindred Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 After a recent accident, I had to rent a car. So I have done your research for you. I peronally would only go to Leti at Linea Profesional Rent A Car which is next to Multiva on the mountain side of the carretera (information below). You will find her rates very reasonable and her cars in excellent condition. Her office manager is David and they are both very helpful and her cars are the most reasonable around and usually only a year or two old. When you rent for an extended period of time she gives you a hefty discount. For instance, if you rent for a month, she only charges you for 3 weeks. They will rent a car for only 12,000 pesos a month on contract. In today's terms, that is a great deal and includes insurance, etc. Lic. Ana Leticia Vera Castaneda (she is also a lawyer) Carretera Ote, 33 C, Ajijic (376) 766-2555 (telephone) 045-333 667 1066 (cell) letivera@laguna.com.mx Buena suerte -- you can't go wrong with Leti. From my personal experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Berca Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 If you are going to pay 12,000 pesos a month and will be here for four or five months, you might consider buying an older Mexican plated vehicle for that 48-60,000 pesos and selling it for close to what you paid for it when you leave. Insurance on it for six months would be much less than US, not sure about Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVGRINGO Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 A tourist may not be able to register a car.......It could depend upon the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeb Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 I hope they are giving you good information as we just did this as Permanente and were required to show a lease in additional to the passport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More mis information You can register a Mexican plated vehicle if you have a passport tourist visa and something to show your address such as a Telmex bill, a CFE bill or a lease.
