Not really “again”
Just resolution of a 2 year old case.

Before our recent trip up north, east Kimberly and down the Canning.
I had seen reports about this hire company. Then I was surprised to see a huge amount of that companies vehicles on the road. So I presume they can’t be all bad?
Don’t know? Just my observation.

They advertise a lot and not everyone knows about their practices until after the hire. So it is not possible to infer they can't be all bad based on vehicles on the road. A search of this company's name on this website and on other review sites reveals a large number of very questionable practices.

The revelations about the company's insurance, namely the lack thereof, is interesting!

So their business plan was to save money by not carrying the proper insurance, then find a way to make the customer pay for any damages?!

During the two months I spent earlier this year travelling around the outback, I can only recall seeing one vehicle from A4WD HIre. And it was parked in Leigh Creek.
