1.     General

Persons who are at least 25 years old and have held a class B driving license for at least 5 years are eligible to rent Morgan motor vehicles.

 

By signing the rental agreement, the renter recognizes that he has taken delivery of the vehicle in proper condition. The renter also declares that he has checked the odometer reading, the presence of all tools, the vehicle documents, the warning triangle, the first-aid kit, the warning jacket, the spare wheel and the full tank capacity.

 

The vehicle will be handed over to you with a full tank and should be returned with a full tank. Any differences will be recalculated.

 

 

2.     Obligations of the tenant

The renter is obliged to treat the motor vehicle carefully and to carefully observe all regulations and laws that apply to the use of a motor vehicle.

 

The renter is not entitled to carry out commercial transport of people or goods with the motor vehicle.

 

The renter may only have the vehicle driven by the driver named in the rental agreement. He must first ensure that the third party is fit to drive and that the third party has a properly issued and valid driving license, which must be at least five years old.

 

The tenant's duty of care includes, in particular, constant monitoring of traffic safety, monitoring of oil and water levels as well as frost protection and tire pressure.

The renter is not permitted to use the motor vehicle to tow other vehicles or to race or sporting events. Loading the motor vehicle beyond the legally permissible limit is not permitted.

 

The renter must carefully secure the car against theft. If the renter violates these conditions, he must pay the landlord full compensation for the vehicle plus loss of rent as in Section 7.

 

 

3.     Rental period and return

Unless otherwise agreed, the pick-up and return location of the vehicle is Trumau (in Austria).

 

The renter undertakes to return the vehicle in the condition in which it was accepted on the agreed day, place and time. Failure to return the motor vehicle to the agreed return location, the vehicle documents or the vehicle keys on time obliges the tenant to compensate the landlord for any resulting damage.

 

In this case, any limitation of liability of the tenant provided for in these contractual terms and conditions does not apply.

​

 

4.     Trips abroad

Trips to other European countries are permitted, but should be reported to the landlord before the trip begins or when this rental agreement is concluded. Travel outside of other European countries is not permitted.

 

If the tenant violates this obligation, he is liable to the landlord for any resulting damage, in particular for loss of rent as stated in Section 7.

​​

​

5.    Payment and cancellation conditions

The rental price is due for payment to the landlord immediately after the invoice is issued, net without any deductions.

​​

When the vehicle is handed over, a deposit of €1,000 must be paid as security. (credit card deduction)​

 

Cancellation fee until   

• 3 weeks before the booking date 20% of the booking amount

• up to 1 week before the booking date 40% of the booking amount

• from 1 week before the booking date 60% of the booking amount

                                                                     

Bad weather cancellation insurance: You have the option of taking out bad weather cancellation insurance. The cost is €40. (Bad weather = rain, storm, snow.) The insurance is valid until the rental vehicle is picked up. The insurance covers all costs that you contractually owe to the landlord at the time the insured event occurs.

 

 

6.     Occurrence of damage

If damage occurs, the landlord's instructions must be obtained immediately by telephone in order to carry out the repairs. Otherwise, the tenant will bear the costs incurred and will be liable for any damage the landlord may suffer.

​

 

7.     Scope of the tenant´s liability

In principle, if damage to the motor vehicle occurs, the tenant is liable to the landlord for the full amount of the direct damage caused to the landlord. In addition, he is liable for towing costs, expert fees, depreciation and loss of rent.​

 

The above paragraph does not apply if the tenant has purchased an exemption from liability. In these cases the tenant is liable

• Rental in Austria for the repair costs with an amount of € 1,000. If the damage is higher, the deductible is 5% of the damage amount per claim.

 

The renter or the driver bears full liability in the event of intent or gross negligence.​

 

So no exemption or limitation of liability

• in cases of intent and gross negligence

• in the event of impaired driving and hit-and-run accidents

 

 

8.     Special obligations of the renter or driver in the event of an accident

The police must always be called in to determine the facts of the accident and insist that the accident be recorded by the police, even if no other person involved in the accident is present.

If the vehicle is damaged, particularly as a result of a traffic accident, the renter or his driver is obliged to record the last names, first names and addresses of all those involved in the accident and witnesses, as well as the time, place, street and the police license plates of the vehicles involved in the accident. Statements regarding the question of guilt may not be made to other people involved in the accident.​

 

The landlord must be notified immediately by telephone and then a truthful written account of the accident must be given to him.

​​

If the renter or his driver acts contrary to this regulation, the renter is liable to the landlord to the same extent as if he were affected by intent or gross negligence within the meaning of Section 7 above.

​

 

9.     Violation of road traffic regulations

In the event of a violation of road traffic regulations, all of the renter's data will be forwarded to the law enforcement authority.
