I think your best bet would be to talk to someone on the phone. Germany is -5:0 hours BEHIND of Vietnam time. So when its 10am here it is 3pm by you. I would call and ask about reserving a ///M. If that does't work out... a nicely spec'd "regular" BMW model isn't all that bad either.

Btw... you should also have an International Drivers License - just in case.

Might actually be going to Vietnam next month. Haven't been to Hanoi in years. I'd like to visit Ha Long Bay again.

I sent you a PM just now. Renting an auto transmission car shouldn't be a problem.

Next to BMW on Demand you could also try "BMW Rent"

BMW also offers short-term rentals of their cars
https://www.bmw.de/de/topics/faszina...bdb3800f1feffc

Simply sent a mail to bmw-rent@bmw.de and ask them what they could offer. It should be more attractive than BMW on Demand, which is only targeting "short-term" rentals for one or two days.

I did send an email to BMW RENT, but sadly the answer is:

Quote:
Dear Mr. Vu,

thank you for your email.
Unfortunately renting a M-model with BMW on Demand is only possible for a period up to 5 days.

If you have any other questions, please let us know.

Kind regards,


Since my roadtrip is around 8-10 days, so I can't come back in the middle to return the car. Otherwise, I have to change my journey. I will think about it and compare BMW RENT and SIXT. SIXT has a good fleet of BMW M and good price (I don't know the price of BMW RENT yet) but it seems they doesn't want to lease the cars to me (or I just misunderstood their words).

Thank you very much Christ!

Great, I will be in Europe from Sep 7th to Sep 24th and back to the North of Vietnam in Sep 25th. If you are still in North Vietnam after Sep 25th, we can meet up

Hmm.. Did you ask BMW Rent for a M car ?
If so, its strange that they refer to BMW on Demand..

Actually BMW Rent and BMW on Demand are two seperate businesses.. normally it should be possible to get a BMW from BMW Rent for a certain amount of time.. also just for a few weeks. Hmm.. or maybe they only rent cars to German or European people..

Another possibility I just found would be this option:
http://www.luxuryrentals.de/#!bmw/ezznv

But I bet they charge you a s*itload of money..
