loads of good deals at this time of the year.  However if driving into Gib you need to be careful.  I'm booked with Avis next month as they allow you into Gib.  Of course you can just park and walk over the border which is what I've done in the past.  Grand if only going in for the game but not if staying overnight.  

I use autoeurope.ie as brokers and they show loads of deals.  Best use one or more of those sites.

just take out full insurance.  Or you can take out insurance to cover the excess from an Iriah company called carhireexcess.ie for very cheap but if you do this the xar company in Malaga can take money out of your credit card for a scratch anf then wait and send in documentation for carhireexcess to reimburse you.

Going on summer hols to Majorca.
Anyone hired a car there recently?
I’ve had a look and of course the reviews give the usual nightmare stories.....mostly about the waiting time to pick up the car because there is a big queue and only a couple of staff working at the desks.

InterRent pop up a lot (they are owned by my old friends Goldcar.

They have a new “key’n’Go” kiosk service where you collect your keys and contract at an ATM type machine...so you don’t have to queue to speak to anyone....you scan your phone/passport/driving license and get the key within a minute....anyone used it anywhere?

Just paid out 427e after trying to clean the bonnet of the car and absolute destroying the bonnet in the meantime.

Also drove through a restricted zone at a cost of 125e per camera.
And now I’m consoling myself with an 8e glass of tuburg

When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

The cloth I used was not a soft cloth and damaged the bonnet.

No complaints from me. Absolute school boy error. Was just hoping he wouldn’t charge me the full 1200e.

I have 3rd party insurance so hopefully they reimburse me

Sounds a bit like when Dougal and Ted ruined the car by trying to tap a dent out of it.

Looking into going to Florida.  Looked up rental car prices.  Ususlly in the past when I have gone a week is around 350 euro a week for a saloon car.   Now everywhere is quoting 600 euro + for even small little cars.  WTFConfused

Noticed that myself not that I have to hire cars that often 3 days in Liverpool was ridiculous- 

Can you not hire through work - that’s what I am doing for about 1/3 of the price
