Answer
G'day George,
            Daylight savings runs from October 30 to March, but in Queensland, we dont have it. However, Surefers Paradise is less than an hour from the border of NSW, who have daylight savings. It is silly, that one state has it and another does not, but thats how it is.

There are many companies that have cars available for rent.
Avis, Hertz, and Budget are the main 3, but you may find a cheaper company at Surfers Paradise.

I have lived in Brisbane all my life (53 years). I am very proud of our city and the Sunshine State of Queensland. I am happy to help in any way possible. Queensland is a very humid and hot place in Summer, which makes it great for outdoor fun.

Experience

I have a great love and knowledge of Brisbane and the surrounding areas. I holiday on the Sunshine Coast every year, and visit the Gold Coast numerous times during the year for work. We love to dine out, and can recommend many places to try in Brisbane and the Coasts.
