Automatic crossover. Delivered free inside the M60. Call and we will tell you in one minute whether it is free.
0161 496 0205Sorbiel Motors runs a single Moskvich 5 out of Salford and hires it to people who need a car for a day, a week or a month. That is the whole business. There is no depot to drive to, no counter and no queue — we bring the car to you anywhere inside the M60 and collect it from wherever suits when you are done.
The Moskvich 5 is a compact five-door crossover with a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine and a CVT automatic gearbox driving the front wheels. It is a straightforward thing to live with: high enough to see over traffic, narrow enough to park without ceremony, and automatic, which is what most people actually want for a week in Manchester.
Prices are deliberately simple, because we have no rate card to hide behind. Daily hire starts at £50, weekly rental is £275 and monthly hire is £895 for anyone who needs the car long term. Short term rental of a day or two costs no more in admin than a fortnight does, so there is no minimum booking and no penalty for a small one.
Output across the model range runs from roughly 136bhp to 184bhp depending on the version; ours sits near the middle. Every Moskvich 5 is turbocharged — there is no naturally aspirated version.
Ring or message with your dates and postcode. We check the diary and answer, normally within the working hour.
You get the full price in writing. Nothing is taken at this point and nothing is added later.
We bring the car to you. Licence and DVLA check, a walk round together, then the keys. About fifteen minutes.
We collect from the same address or a different one. The £250 deposit is released once the car is back as it left.
The car you are booking. Five doors, five seats, roughly 4.5 metres long and 1.85 wide, turbocharged 1.5 petrol and a CVT automatic. Front-wheel drive, which is the right answer for a car that spends its life on city roads.
A smaller crossover from the same maker, kept as a reserve so a confirmed booking is never cancelled because the 5 came back late. Available on request, but it is not what you get by default.
Yes — a CVT automatic, so no clutch pedal and no manual version. Fine if you hold an automatic-only licence.
You can. Single-day hire starts at £50 with 150 miles included, delivery included.
It has been steady for us. We wrote up the detail and the caveats in our piece on Moskvich 5 reliability rather than making a vague claim here.
Yes, free of charge, along with everywhere else inside the M60.
£250, refundable, taken at handover and released when the car comes back in the same condition.
Yes, self drive only. We do not supply a driver — the car is yours for the length of the booking.
From booking longer, not from cutting cover. Insurance, breakdown and delivery stay in the price at every length; only the per-day figure moves.
Everywhere inside the M60 is free. Bolton, Bury, Stockport and Warrington are all routine at 75p a mile each way, quoted before you book.
Yes, £8 a day. They need to pass the same licence and address checks as the main driver.
Dates and a postcode are enough. We will come back with a yes or a no and the total price, in writing.
