who knows a good car rental service with the option of a driver that can rent 5 cars at this time? I knee I should have anticipated the jump in rentals this weekend but I didn't expect every single number, including the ones on the listings here to be unavailable. All I want are 5 innova for our extended family. The bus company we reserved 3 months ago told me only this week they had a problem to make it available. The idiots didn't even offer to find me a replacement and just gave my money back. anyone that knows anyone. Please help. Send me a message please.

Hi guys, I've been living for a couple of years here in Indonesia, and I think it's become necessary to have my own car. Currently looking for a second-hand city car like a Toyota Yaris or a Honda Jazz. There are quite a few websites that specialize in buying and selling used cars. I have been looking at carmudi.com and mobil123.com (but both are only posting ads in Bahasa). I also saw cars being posted on olx.co.id From these ones, or if there are other good sites (which don't necessarily come up on google), can anyone suggest them to me?

What is the going rate for a driver in Jakarta area? I have given up on getting around town myself and I want to hire my own driver. Where can you find them?

But then again, which driver would be reading any of those yeah?  If I wanted to post on a local newspaper which would be the best one?
