motor vehicles as follows: Liability insurance: 100 million € flat rate, max. 15 million € per person.

5. Repair:
If a repair becomes necessary during the rental period to ensure the operation or road safety of
the vehicle, the lessee may commission an authorized workshop up to a cost amount of 200.00 EUR
without further notice, but for larger repairs only with the prior consent of the lessor. The
repair costs are borne by the lessor, unless the lessee is liable according to point 6e) of these
terms and conditions. Compensation of any kind due to a lack of usability of the vehicles for the
lessee is excluded.
6. Obligations of the Lessee:
a) Rental Price:
The rental price is determined by the agreement in the rental contract or the lessor's price list. If the odometer fails, the lessee is obliged to take the vehicle immediately by direct route to a suitable workshop and obtain the lessor's instructions. If this provision is not observed, the lessor is free to claim damages if the lessee has acted without his consent or contrary to his instructions, or if he proves that the lessee has driven a greater distance. Fuel is at the lessee's expense.
b) Payment Obligation:
The lessor may demand an advance payment up to the amount of the expected final price, but at least 200.00 EUR for the handover of the vehicle. Only a credit or debit card can be used for payment. Cash payments of any kind are excluded.
c) Authorized Drivers:
The vehicle may only be driven by the lessee. If the lessee employs another driver, the lessee is liable in case of damage (not the driver). The lessee must be 21 years of age or older.
d) Duty of Care:
The lessee must treat the vehicle with care and observe all relevant regulations and technical rules for its use, in particular comply with maintenance intervals and properly lock the vehicle. |
e) Usage Restrictions:
The lessee is prohibited from using the vehicle for motorsport events, for testing purposes, for commercial long-distance passenger or freight transport, or for any other unlawful purposes. The lessee is furthermore strictly prohibited from towing a trailer with the vehicle. Trips outside the federal territory are only permitted with the prior written consent of the lessor. Violations entitle to claim damages.
f) Notification Obligation:
In case of accidents, the lessee must inform the lessor immediately, at the latest upon return of the vehicle, in writing about all details including a sketch. The accident report must in particular contain names and addresses of the persons involved and any witnesses, as well as the official license plates of the vehicles involved. After an accident, the lessee must notify the police, insofar as the findings necessary for clarification of the accident cannot be reliably made in another way, e.g. with the help of witnesses. Claims by opposing parties may not be acknowledged. Fire or theft damage as well as wildlife damage must be reported immediately by the lessee to the lessor and the competent police authority.
g) Vehicle Return:
The lessee is obliged to return the vehicle to the lessor at Am Mittleren Moos 13 in 86167 Augsburg at the end of the rental period. The lessee must return the vehicle in the same condition (including first aid kit, warning vests and ice scraper) as received, with the exception of normal wear and tear of the vehicle through the rental contract. Missing equipment will be charged to the lessee. Return can only take place during the lessor's business hours, unless another arrangement has been made. If the return time is exceeded by more than 1 hour, the lessee is obliged, without prejudice to further liability according to these terms and conditions, to pay compensation for the period of excess, namely in case of exceeding 1 hour to 6 hours one daily rental rate per day. The lessee remains free to prove that the lessor suffered no damage or less damage.
7. Liability of the Lessor:
The lessor is fully liable for all personal injuries culpably caused to the lessee, otherwise
liability is limited to intent and gross negligence, unless coverage exists within the framework of
the liability insurance taken out for the vehicle.
Claims for damages arising from a withdrawal by FRD are limited to the amount of the agreed rent. In case of usage failures not attributable to FRD such as accident, late return, etc., FRD is released from the payment of any possible damages.
8. Withdrawal by the Lessee:
If the lessee withdraws from his rental contract (including email) at the latest 1 day before the
agreed use, a processing fee of 23.80 € including VAT is due. If the lessee withdraws on the day of
the rental, 50% of the rental amount is due, but at least 23.80 €.
9. Place of Jurisdiction + Severability Clause:
Augsburg is agreed as the place of jurisdiction. Should one of the conditions be legally
inadmissible, the others are not affected by this, rather a condition will then be sought that comes
as close as possible to the original intention.
